The ‘Purpose’ of our daycare is to provide dogs a place to play and socialize with other canines during the day that is emotionally and physically safe at all times! • Who are brought into daycare on a consistent and regular weekly basis (At least one day per week) • Who have met our Daycare Acceptance Requirements following an initial 3-day period, and then continuously assessed every day after that • Whose owners understand and agree that they will be available to immediately pick up their dog upon a moment’s notice, should they receive a phone call from one of our staff, that their dog is not meeting our Daycare Acceptance Requirements and/or has medical issues • A place where dog owners are going to be unavailable during the day to immediately pick up their dog at a moment’s notice, should they receive a phone call from one of our staff, that their dog is not meeting our Daycare Acceptance Requirements • A one-day drop off only • A random attendance with lengthy absences in between • An automatic acceptance after regular attending dogs has been away from our daycare for 2 months or more. The dog’s owners will need to re-register their dog for daycare of which the dog will be reassessed to see if they meet our Daycare Acceptance Requirements • A place for dogs that have behavioural and socialization issues Our daycare service is not to provide training to dogs that have behavioural and socialization issues such as reactivity, aggression, or any other concerns as outlined in our Daycare Acceptance Requirements. If your dog requires training for these issues, we are more than happy to provide the training for you during our scheduled training classes and/or private sessions. Training your dog in a daycare that does not meet our Daycare Acceptance Requirements can exacerbate behavioural and socialization issues, and can be very emotionally traumatic to your dog. It can also cause unnecessary dog fights, which can be harmful to your dog, the other dogs, and to our staff. If your dog, does not meet our Daycare Acceptance Requirements, it can actually have a negative impact on your dog’s emotional and physical well-being when together in the same area for long periods of time with several other dogs, it can cause your dog extreme anxiety, stress, and fear when (s)he simply prefers to be in a setting (off leash or at home) where there are not a large number of dogs constantly around her/him for long periods of time. Many dogs are introverts and feel safe only when there are no other dogs near them at all, or only one dog that they know very well, and/or when they are only with their owners in the safety of their own home. Older/senior dogs (especially senior dogs) acceptance of attending daycare can change: A dog can be quite comfortable for several years in a daycare, but as (s)he ages, that level of comfort can change, causing the older/senior dog to start showing signs of anxiety, stress, and fear in that same setting. There are many puppies and dogs in general who tolerate daycare for the first few days, weeks, or even months of daycare, but then become overwhelmed, anxious, and stressed each time they come in. This can happen for various reasons as each dog is unique. Many puppies do extremely well with daycare and can start attending as soon as they have their second round of vaccinations. But for certain puppies, it can also be overwhelming and too scary. Many puppies are introverted, and are much more comfortable playing one-to-one with a similar energy-type dog in their own home, playing with a dog they know and trust at a friend’s home, or a being at a dog sitter’s home where there are very few other dogs. Another option or introverted puppies is a dog xxxxxx where they only have to be with a small number of dogs or just the dog xxxxxx, for a very short period of time. They then get to go back to their own house to rest until their owners come home. We will openly discuss these options with you if your puppy is not happy being in daycare.

The dog’s owners will need to re-register their dog for daycare of which the dog will be reassessed to see if they meet our Daycare Acceptance Requirements • A place for dogs that have behavioural and socialization issues Our daycare service is not to provide training to dogs that have behavioural and socialization issues such as reactivity, aggression, or any other concerns as outlined in our Daycare Acceptance Requirements. If your dog requires training for these issues, we are more than happy to provide the training for you during our scheduled schedule training classes and/or private sessions. sessions Training your a dog in a daycare that does do not meet our Daycare Acceptance Requirements can exacerbate behavioural and behavioural/socialization issues, and can be very emotionally traumatic to your dog. It can also cause unnecessary dog fights, which can be harmful to your dog, the other dogs, and to our staff. If Also, our daycare is kennel-free, so if your dog, does not meet our Daycare Acceptance Requirements, , it can actually have a negative impact on your dog’s emotional and physical well-well- being when together in the same area for long periods of time with several other dogs, it . It can cause your dog extreme anxiety, stress, and fear when (s)he simply prefers to be in a setting (off leash or at home) where there are not a large number of dogs constantly around her/him for long periods of timehim. Many dogs are introverts and feel safe only when there are no other dogs near them at all, or only one dog that they know very well, and/or when they are only with their owners in the safety of their own home. Older/senior Many older dogs (especially senior dogs) acceptance become less tolerant of attending being in daycare can change: with a large number of high energy dogs for long periods of time. A dog can be quite comfortable for several years in a daycare, but as (s)he ages, that level of comfort can change, causing the older/senior dog to start showing signs of anxiety, stress, and fear in that same setting. There are many puppies and dogs in general who tolerate daycare for the first few days, weeks, or even months of daycare, but then become overwhelmed, anxious, and stressed each time they come in. This can happen for various reasons as each dog is unique. Many puppies Several dogs don’t do extremely well with daycare long days of daycare, but they do well with only half days. It is an option we give clients, especially when their dog gets anxious and can start attending as soon as they have stressed at pick up time (starting at 3 pm until closing) when owners are coming to take their second round dogs’ home. We will openly discuss this option with you, of vaccinationshaving your pick up your dog between 3:00 – 3:30 pm if your dog is stressed with the longer days. But for certain puppies, it Daycare can also be overwhelming and too scaryfor certain puppies. Many These puppies are introverted, and are much more comfortable playing one-to-one with a similar energy-type dog in their own home, playing with a dog they know and trust at a friend’s home, or a being at a dog sitter’s home where there are very few other dogs. Another option or introverted puppies is a dog xxxxxx where they only have to be with a small number of dogs or just the dog xxxxxx, for a very short period of time. They then get to go back to their own house to rest until their owners come home. We will openly discuss these options with you if your puppy is not happy being in daycare.. Also, many dogs have only been exposed to a large outside, off leash environment where playtime is for only 1 – 2 hours at a time. They then get to go home to rest for the remainder of the day without the presence of multiple other dogs constantly around them making them over- stimulated, over-tired, and over-whelmed. When these dogs come into a daycare, especially a kennel free daycare, they may have a negative experience when having to play with several dogs in an enclosed environment, for very long periods of time (up to 10 hours at a time). These dogs haven’t learned how to regulate self- tiredness and/or self-soothing in a constant high distraction setting. They can become over- stimulated, over-aroused, and aggressive in play causing possible dog fights. These dogs do best playing in an off leash setting. We will openly discuss this with you if your dog is not a good fit for daycare. We, at Raising Canine, respect these various types of dogs. We recognize it causes them incredible stress and anxiety to remain in a daycare setting, and that continued exposure only exacerbates their symptoms. When dogs are experiencing high levels of negative emotions, they are releasing large amounts of stress hormones such as adrenaline and cortisol, which are not meant to be sustained repeatedly, nor sustained for long periods of time. It is detrimental to the emotional well-being of the dog to keep them in a situation that is causing such a negative response. Also, dogs are pack animals that respond to the emotions (energy levels) of other canines around them. When dogs exhibit high levels of anxiety, stress, and fear in communal areas, such as kennel free daycares, it causes the other dogs in daycare to become abnormally anxious; stressed; fearful; agitated; frustrated; reactive and/or aggressive. This can cause unnecessary dog fights with undue injury and trauma to any of the dogs and/or staff.
