I’ll need to know information about your dog. Do they have any health problems. Your veterinarians contact information in case of emergency. Their feeding schedule and do they need a special diet. What is their normal bathroom schedule at home. Are they afraid of anything. What scares them and what makes them happy. Are they aggressive around children, adults or other animals. I will need to know this if I’m taking them on walks around the neighborhood. All dogs must be housebroken unless a puppy in training. I’ll need to know if your dog is use to going to the bathroom outside or inside on a potty pad. Also any other information you feel is important to make your puppy feel safe and happy during their stay.

First thing when I wake up all the dogs go out into the backyard for their morning potty break. While they are outside, I’m getting everyone’s breakfast ready. Then everyone comes in to eat. All dogs are fed separately, to insure there is no arguments over food. Then we start our day of playing. We have a big yard to play ball in and will have a small doggie pool when the weather warms up. We take long walks around a very quiet neighborhood. If your dogs like to play with children, I have my grandkids that live across the street that love to come play with the puppies staying with us. But only with your permission. Let’s not forget all the tummy rubs and petting. We give treats, dog biscuits throughout the day, if approved in your dogs diet. Dinner is usually fed at 5:00 pm. The last thing we do at night before bed is all the dogs go outside for their final potty break and when they come in they get a treat before bed. Most of the dogs settle into my bedroom with me but they are allowed to sleep anywhere in the house they want. If your baby is crate trained and prefers to sleep in their crate, I’ll ask you to bring it with them. If your puppy is used to going for walks to use the bathroom, we will accommodate them.
