Socialised Daycare

Just like humans, dogs are social creatures and when kept in social isolation can develop compulsive habits and become fearful of the everyday things we all take for granted.

During the socialisation process, dogs learn many important skills from each other such as hierarchy, problem solving, agility and testing their own limits.

The daycare programme at Country Tails is so designed that each dog in our care gets to explore a wide range of environments throughout the day, all of which pose their own individual challenges. We provide a combination of basic training, mentally stimulating games, sense training exercises and physical agility all of which help to shape the dogs development towards becoming a well balanced and happy individual who is less likely to become aggressive or troublesome in the future.

Many of our customers have reported positive outcomes as a result of their dog’s weekly visits to us. Even 1 day per week can have substantially positive results , leaving customers with total peace of mind while at work or away.

Our daycare environment is completely secure with a variety of areas to investigate to include grassed, stone and solid surfaced play areas all of which are equipped with a variety of play equipment.

All dogs are grouped in accordance with size and temperament and groups are rotated  throughout the day so as to expose the dog to as many variants as possible. We also have 2 indoor play/activity areas especially for the wet days so nobody misses out on the fun!

All our first time doggie visitors must complete a one day ASSESSMENT VISIT to ensure they are compatible with our socialised style of daycare and boarding and also to ensure the safety of the other doggie visitors.

A fully up to date VACCINATION RECORD must be presented at the assessment visit.

All male dogs who are 1 year or older and coming to us for the first time must be neutered. Males who have been attending our facility prior to reaching the age of 12 months, will require neutering if they begin to show signs of unwanted behaviour towards other dogs.
