| Question: |
|---|
Answer: A lot of dogs are not use to being away from home. Going to an unknown place and being handled by numerous different people can be extremely stress full on dogs. If your dog is not socialized or even if they are, being around so many different dogs at one time can also be very stressful. It is very easy for your dog to catch a virus at kennels. Numerous of canine viruses are airborne; even if your dog is vaccinated it does not guarantee them to not come home sick. If you have a young dog or a senior dog they are more susceptible to these viruses because they have lower immune systems. |

Question: I just got a puppy and he’s driving me nuts! He eats everything and urinates everywhere! HELP! |
|
Answer: Young dogs need a lot of attention. You can bring your dogs to happy paws for a few hours or as long as you need. Bring them any day of the week to get rid of all that energy. We will also work with your dog on teaching it to go to the bathroom outside. We will also help your dog socialize with other dogs. The prime time to socialize your dog with other dogs is between 4 to 8 weeks. If you don’t socialize your dog they can become fearful or aggressive with other dogs. This can be very hard to reverse. |
|
Question: My dog will not listen to me! He is always running away or jumping on people when they come in the house. What can I do? |
