Dog Daycare with 29 Dogs

This video gives you an backstage look at our daycare and how we can keep the energy levels where they are. This was a live stream from our Facebook page.

place looks like a sweat shop made for dogs. Would never leave my dog here lol

Such a small area for all these dogs

[@anabella5246]

Nice! Beautiful to watch! thanks for sharing

I'd like to have a pet sitting business and take care of 29 dogs, including 9 of my own.

This is great! I’m in California but I love this video. Thanks for sharing. I feel much better now if I have to take my GSD to a daycare center. Love it!

[@VermontDogTrainer]

Thanks!

Four people for 29 dogs. The hellhole I used to work at would have me in a room with 40 to 50 dogs by myself.

[@VermontDogTrainer]

That’s terrible!

[@rdred8693]

@@VermontDogTrainer It was awful. I blew the whistle on her for other things. Rotten, greedy and flat out terrible person. The good news is word is getting around how bad it is there.

[@carolineramage7480]

​@@rdred8693you'd think the owners would immediately pick up on how bad it is. WHAT'S WRONG WITH PEOPLE! Thank you for doing something about it.

My collie was asked to leave day care, got overstimulated playing fetch constantly and wanted to herd rather than play and would tell the other dogs off. Only one may two people and I think they freaked out with his corrections

treadmills are good but the black and white dog seems like it was a tad too fast...thats my only concern no full eyeballs in the treadmill area.. with all the distractions how is that area not forgotten ...are they on a timer, etc

[@jaydelydom5601]

Hi, I've just started working at a day care. How do you bring each dog in upon arrival? Appreciate your time and all your videos! They're fantastic!

[@VermontDogTrainer]

We would wait at the game for the new dog to chill out a bit. We would also get a read from the dogs in the daycare already seeing how they react to the newbie. Once things settled we would walk the dog in on leash while someone else walked behind the new dog. This helps not making the newbie so overwhelmed otherwise the daycare dogs would swarm around the dog which could cause unwanted reactions. Also, each dog is different so read the situation and follow your gut.

I love this! I wish all daycares were run like this. I'm actually looking at applying at a few places and my main hesitation is that it will be one of those larger places that are just complete chaos for hours on end.

[@VermontDogTrainer]

Thanks

Looks extremely boring for the dogs. Where is their fun

[@DreamsOfFinland]

who put the dogs on the treadmills? yikes. I took my dog to day care and he shook at the glass door as I left. He went into playroom and ran into the 20' tunnel taking a dump dead center, then emerged and made a couple friends. By end of next visit he was star of the place, by next week he was in dog jail for having too much fun (in his eyes). The ladies fell in love with him and a nice place to be when I worked long days. Miss him.

Those sound like cool memories. Dogs trip me out. They are the best.

[@chrishettwer4583]

Treadmills are amazing for super high energy dogs. I taught our australian shepherd lab mix to walk on a treadmill when she was a puppy and it helped with behavior and training so much.

[@judithryle2113]

The brown and black dog are playing and your help keeps pulling them apart. They werefine

[@bajacaliforniarealestate1455]

how long do you let the dogs walk on the treadmill. It looks like a bit much.

[@carpediem9382]

Do the dogs enjoy the treadmill?

[@tabithaharding652]

How do I set up a live stream for my business

[@VermontDogTrainer]

Do you mean on social media or webcam?

[@user-qm6oz5lq1d]

[@kazhb2926]

[@nickmoore8108]

I run a dog daycare ad we get 20 dogs regularly and I'm the only one there

[@shanicekelly9192]

Currently going through this…super chaotic

[@bugloverspiderlover8490]

Ohh a BEANIE hat I see in there!

[@judithryle2113]

You are not letting the ones inthe middle havefun

[@user-tv7iu5qq3m]

Honestly- the dogs don’t look happy. It’s better for them to be alone or with a dog sitter. My dog doesn’t like other dogs. It’s a matter of what they get used to as a puppy.

[@omw123wilkins5]

Those dogs on the treadmill the second one from left is struggling why don’t you take them for a walk instead look for goodness sake hes or she is struggling

[@judithryle2113]

Not impressed. Your people are too controlling
