The dog days of summer are screeching to a halt, and we are being sent back to our busy fall routines. No longer will our dogs be able to enjoy the company of the children while the parents are at the office or rather their home offices working. As loving dog owners, it is so important to have a plan for your dogs on the days you will be away from home over eight hours. Our dogs deserve proper care and treatment so make sure you have a plan yourself. Lots of families have chosen to bring their dog to a South Jersey Dog Kennel, so their canines get the stimulation they need and deserve. Many dog owners rave about how great the kennel experience was when they were in a pinch and could not bring their dog away with them. Not only is it helpful for the owner but there are a handful of great benefits for your dog’s health, including:
Increased Exercise
Humans are not the only species that requires it. There was an uptick in the amount of people who became dog owners this year and I have a feeling they do not all have big, luscious yards. Some of these dogs only get to see grass when they go to a local dog park. Having set days for your dog to go and play at the dog kennel is an outstanding way to give your dog the active lifestyle they want.
Reduced Loneliness
This is the one that is very fitting for this time of the year. As said above, dogs will not be able to enjoy the company of the family children because it is time for them to get back to school. It is common knowledge that dogs do, in fact, get lonely when not around other living beings for long periods of time. What better way to avoid that for your dog than by allowing them to interact with a bunch of other dogs every day or even a couple days a week.
I hope this was a good reminder for everyone to not forget about their furry friend when getting back into the swing of things!
