Dog Daycare

Blue Dog Boarding and Daycare’s dog daycare is essential for your dog’s continued socialization and well-being. Dogs are social living beings just as we are. We have developed these three daycare options for your dog because we are committed to your dog’s health and physical and mental well-being. We feel these options will help our families to provide for their fur babies even more effectively and safely.

Blue Dog Boarding and Daycare Kensington are different than other dog daycares in North Bethesda, Bethesda, Potomac, and surrounding areas.  Unlike a  dog park  Blue Dog Boarding and Daycare Kensington behavior is supervised and shot records are validated.    Our dog daycare attendants are there to interact with your dogs and take care of their every need.  We have several divisions in our dog daycare so we can safely accommodate various sizes, personalities, and temperaments. Our daycare attendants received extensive training in dog behavior, pack play, and canine health. Our dog daycare attendants are trained to watch and monitor behaviors that are appropriate and inappropriate for dog group play.   When you send your dog to Blue Dog Boarding and Daycare Kensington, you will get to view them via our webcams.

For the safety of the dogs, we do not mix sizes of dogs. Your dog will be playing with others of their own size and similar temperament. We have many areas for play so we can have many subsets of sizes and personalities.  

Every day the dogs have a 2-hour nap time( 11:30-1:30 daily).  It is important for their health physically and mentally to have to calm down and rest in our environment.

Reasons to send your dog to daycare:

Dogs are social beings and love being with people and other dogs.  Being left alone in the house without people all day long leads to an unhappy dog with a lot of pent-up energy: physically they have not been challenged and haven’t been exercised properly, and mentally they’re bored.  When a dog is bored, undesirable behaviors will crop up i.e., destructive chewing, barking, excessive licking and chewing on themselves, digging up flooring, etc.

Mental and physical stimulation is extremely important to your dog’s well-being.   When you send your dog to our dog daycare your dog will have human and fellow dog companionship all day long.  When you pick your dog up from Blue Dog Boarding and Daycare Kensington they are on the same page as their owner tired, ready to hang out and settle in for the evening after a fun active day with their friends, and happy to be home with their family.

 

 

 

 

 

VACCINATION POLICY for DOGS:

We require your dog to be current on Rabies, Distemper/Parvo, and Canine Influenza Vaccinations, every 6 mos. Bordatella (Kennel Cough) needs to be boosted. Ideally, a 14-day wait period after the vaccination has been administered so the vaccine has had time to fully immunize your pet.
