WHY IS DAYCARE SO IMPORTANT FOR MY DOG?

  

Our dog day-care is a fun and safe way to give your dog the opportunity to mix and socialise with their own species. It has so many benefits, and if your dog is shy or nervous around other dogs, then it is even MORE important to give your dog the toolbox ‘essentials’ they need to flourish and grow into a well-rounded and happy dog. 

Our Slice of Doggy Paradise

  

Set in three acres of woodland, ‘The Lodge’ dog day-care is the perfect setting for any dog to enjoy socialisation without the need of supervision from their parents.


‘The Lodge’ is a fun modern-day day-care creche, where your dog can enjoy a safe environment, where every dog who uses, our facilities, will have undergone a FREE behavioural assessment.


Our day-care facility is great for socialisation, mental stimulation, and general wellbeing. 


Our opening hours are: 7.30am-6.30pm Mondays to Thursdays.

SOCIALISATION

  

We visit so many dogs who suffer from fear aggression. This is mainly down to the fact that the owner has been over cautious when meeting other dogs whilst out on their walks. Many owners fear that their dog is going to get hurt, or, mostly, because of the terrifying noise their own dog makes when THEY see another dog. This is almost always MIS-diagnosed as aggression leading to a fight, when, the noisier the dog is on the lead, the more likely they are suffering from lead fear aggression which can be completely fixed with the use of our dog day-care facility.

SEPERATION ANXIETY

  

If your dog suffers from separation anxiety, it can be because of several reasons:

1: They may be too dependent on you, and vice versa, which can lead to a co-dependency relationship with serious repercussions. 

2: Your dog may never have been away from you or a family member before and are terrified when you try to leave them on their own.

3: Your dog may be chewing furniture, clothing, crying continuously whenever you leave the room to do something as simple as taking a shower or making a cup of tea!

INDEPENDANCE SKILLS

  

Just like children when they first go to nursery, you felt so guilty leaving them there. But, as you know, consistency, routine and boundaries are all a child yearns for, to feel safe and secure, and independence is created by leaving them with their peers so that they can create their own sense of identity and learn to cope in a social setting. Guess what? THIS IS VITAL FOR DOGS TOO!!!

MENTAL STIMULATION

 Dogs need MENTAL EXERCISE, which can only be gained by your dog really using their brain. Other than spending £100’s on mental stimulation toys from the pet shop (Which would need to be done daily to keep them entertained!) they will never get the fix that they need. Your dog is soaking up the knowledge that they learn from one another, just by being in each other’s company! This is GREAT for your dog’s MENTAL HEALTH! 

Welcome to The Lodge Dog Daycare!

Our dog day-care facility will change not only your dog’s life, but your lives too We all know that feeling when no matter how far we have walked, or in most cases, been DRAGGED around a 10-mile circuit with a dog on the end of the lead who is acting like the kid who ate too many food colourings, you live long enough to reach home and they are STILL GOING BONKERS!!!
