Why write in your vote at Best of Madison, to vote  for  Dogs Welcome! Daycare?               Madison's Best Kept            Doggy Daycare Secret? Because it's Daycare Done Right! We provide: a warm, caring atmosphere for your dog, with lots of human interaction,and of course dog interaction! playtime when they want it, cuddle time when they want it, nap time when they want it, some time alone, if they want it indoors or outdoors as they please! We monitor, and make you aware of, any changes in your dog's overall well being and health - so you can ask your veterinarian to check it out.  We'll feed them lunch if they bring it We have available: toys to play with, alone or with others things to chew on, tug on, balls to chase and push, playground equipment designed just for dogs (read: safe for dogs), bone shaped wading pools, shade trees and shade tents, climate controlled 3,000 sq. ft. indoor space with a padded floor to protect joints. We have: cooling beds, warming beds, orthopedic beds, and raised cots. We also have several securely fenced outdoor areas, including a huge grassy yard for "outings" and adventures! Our facility is kept very clean at all times We keep up your dog's housetraining  habits by getting them outside often,         not allowing them to relieve themselves indoors (or cleaning it up thoroughly and              promptly if there is an "accident"), and cleaning up immediately after them outdoors as well. If their barking is prolonged we distract and redirect them to better activities Why bother? Because dogs become really good at what they practice most!          If your dog is barking all day long in daycare, what do you suppose they'll do at                  home, at the park, in the car?!  Yep - bark! We encourage good manners and good habits. We do it gently using distraction to interrupt them and redirection to other activities         to show them what they could be doing instead! This allows them to learn good habits that spill over into their behavior at home. Our experienced personnel know when to step in and redirect before playing turns from fun loving to testy. In fact we have very few tiffs and skirmishes because we watch the dogs closely, read their signals accurately and call them to us before play changes to annoyance, fear or frustration. We screen our daycare applicants carefully to keep everyone safe and having fun By closely monitoring, assessing, and actively directing their play we keep         a safe and fun atmosphere for all the dogs throughout the day. We don't allow bullying or rude play, and we will let you know and ask you to remove your dog from daycare         if we believe they are overly stressed or anxious by this environment. We won't keep a dog in daycare when they aren't having a good time; or if they are ruining the good time of others! Every dog's welfare comes before making a buck! We treat all our daycare dogs like family, and that means we quickly come to love them,  and want only the best for them.
