December Highlights
December Enrichment
This months enrichment theme invites our dogs to dive into some holiday fun with the opportunity to rip shred and tear up a cardboard gingerbread house!
This will come complete with crinkle paper, fun scents and hidden surprises!
​
Shredding activities are not only entertaining, they tap into their natural canine instincts in a healthy and supervised way. Tearing and digging helps to release energy, reduce stress, build confidence and is fun mental stimulation.
Holiday Craft
This month, we're adding a little extra holiday magic to our daycare days. Every dog in attendance before Dec 23rd will take part in a festive, paws on activity to create a secret holiday gift for their family. We won't reveal the surprise just yet, but we hope it brings you a smile as we celebrate your pup's first holiday season with us.
Nail Trims
&
Desensitization Training
We are excited to announce we are now offering nail trims and Dremel services as an add-on option! ​
For dogs who are sensitive with their paws being handled or nervous about the clippers and/or Dremel, we are also providing gentle desensitization sessions to help build their confidence. These short one-on-one sessions focus on gentle introduction and gradual handling making nail trimming a stress-free experience.
