Since we moved to Oakland, the humans have been searching for a boarding/day care facility that can somewhat live up to our experience with Wag Hotels in West Sacramento. Although I know nothing could be better, I'm looking forward to spending time in a different environment and meeting new friends.
There are several facilities that offer boarding and day care in the Oakland area, but the humans have narrowed the list down to three:
I've ranked the facilities according to the humans' preference. For example, they like Pride & Pedigree best out of the three because they:
- Offer agility course activities, obedience exercises, and trick training during day care.
- Require dogs to be crate trained for periodic naps.
- Sirius Dog Training classes.
- Employ a full-time groomer who specializes in many breeds.
- Are located less than a mile from our apartment.
Each of these facilities require an assessment before allowing dogs to join day care. And, I have an appointment at Pride & Pedigree for an assessment today. Tall, who will be taking me, is nervous, but I'm not. I'm just going to be myself; Pride & Pedigree can take or leave me.
Tall isn't a fan of my devil-may-care attitude, especially considering that I got kicked out of a Sacramento day care after passing the assessment with flying colors. I wish she wasn't such a fretter!
You can bet I'll keep you updated about the assessments. Wish me luck (for Tall's sake).
