A Healthy Balanced Day
Our mission is to improve dogs’ physical, mental, and sensory well-being, ensuring that you have a companion at home who is content, joyful, serene, and well-rounded.
- Play, Exercise, and Socialization: Physical activity aids in keeping your dog’s weight in check and muscles robust. It additionally elevates their spirits and offers an avenue for expending energy, leading to a calmer disposition at home. Our offerings encompass secure indoor and outdoor play areas, with both small and large playgroups tailored to your dog’s age, temperament, and comfort.
- Rest: Rest is a vital component of your dog’s physical, mental, and emotional health. Following play and social interaction, they require moments of relaxation and rejuvenation. Our daily routine emphasizes a harmonious blend of rest, play, and learning, ensuring optimal well-being by averting overstimulation and fostering holistic health.
- Learning: Dogs acquire skills from people and other canines; our knowledgeable staff helps them through constructive training methods. They instruct your dog in safe play and promote beneficial relationships. Dogs at our daycare facility in Sussex continuously learn new habits and social skills from their fellow dogs.
- Love: As your dog joins our family, they receive abundant love and care during your absence. We forge a strong connection to instill comfort and confidence. Through consistent visits, we become well-acquainted with their traits, requirements, and likes. This enables us to discern even subtle shifts like mood, behavior, or potential health matters that might otherwise evade notice.
Commitment to Safety
Ensuring the safety and well-being of your dog is our priority. As fellow dog guardians, we deeply understand the importance of treating each and every dog as a beloved family member. Our dedication revolves around creating a secure and nurturing environment for all those who step into our facility.
Central Bark® Enrichment Dog Day Care Features:
Flexible Group Play
Our flexible playgroups match your dog with the ideal social setting and play routine, maximizing their enjoyment and benefit. This ensures a balanced mix of play, relaxation, and learning, creating a safer social environment and improved play quality. Additionally, our lower dog-to-staff ratios ensure more individual attention, education, and affection.
Group Play Skills
Group activities and positive reinforcement aid dogs in practicing crucial skills like name recall and behaviors such as group sit and door interactions. These enjoyable activities enhance behavior, impulse control, and prevent overstimulation, creating a safer social environment.
Rest Period Enrichment
Offering a private space with soothing interactive toys and customized healthy food combinations, your dog finds relaxation and rejuvenation. This fosters physical and mental relaxation, contributing to a balanced blend of play, learning, and rest. It also cultivates a positive crate association, enhancing comfort.
One-on-One Enrichment
Customized One-on-One Enrichment sessions offer your dog personalized attention and the opportunity to indulge their senses and explore their instincts with interactive toys, puzzles, and games. These sessions are enjoyable and rewarding, providing physical and mental exercise while engaging their senses. Enhance the challenge with fitness and agility equipment.

It’s easy! Just find your local store and click Enroll Now to create your online account and complete our online registration form or call the location to speak with an associate.
To speed up the registration process, please have available: veterinarian contact information, an emergency contact (other than yourself or your partner), pet information & medical history, and credit card information (optional). We will ask you a series of questions about your dog’s training and social history. These questions help us get to know them and provide the best care possible.
Once you have enrolled, we will need a copy of your dog’s vaccination records, which you can upload to your online account or bring with you on your scheduled first day. We also ask that your dog comes in on a regular 6-foot flat leash (no retractable or flexi-leads in the lobby) and a quick-release collar. Not sure what a quick-release collar is? No problem! We’ll be happy to show you on your first day. If your dog usually wears a harness while walking, you’re welcome to bring that as well.
If your dog typically eats a midday meal, you can bring it in an airtight container clearly labeled with your dog’s first and last names.
At Central Bark®, our goal is to provide a balanced day of play, learning, rest, and love. Learning and mental exercise can happen in various ways, including training activities, brain games, scent work, and more. Our playgroups offer several hours of active playtime paired with learning opportunities during Group Play Skills. This way, dogs have plenty of time to socialize and get their energy out, while also exercising their minds through learning.
During one of your dog’s rest periods throughout the day, they are offered a rest period enrichment activity to stimulate their mind while encouraging healthy rest. These licking and chewing activities involve food rewards, such as frozen peanut butter KONG®. These activities engage their minds while helping foster quality rest.
Did you know? Scientific studies have shown that licking and chewing behaviors (especially those that involve food rewards!) are self-soothing, decrease heart and respiratory rates, and even release dopamine in a dog’s brain.
Training Tutor sessions stimulate the dog’s minds and bodies and help them learn important skills, behaviors, and tricks.
One-on-One Enrichment sessions give the extra attention dogs love and the freedom to use their senses and safely explore their instincts through interactive toys, puzzles, and games.
