We provide a safe and fun alternative so you don’t have to leave your Wet Nose Family Member at home all day long. Your dog can have fun with us and enjoy our scheduled routine that offers plenty of activities and enrichment as well as adequate rest. All of our team goes through an industry-leading training program to ensure a safe and controlled environment for play and socialization. Did we mention, we also have a pool with beach-entry so on those hot summer days we provide a fun way to cool off.
Requirements
-
All dogs participating in daycare must pass an evaluation* so we can determine if your dog is a good fit and will enjoy social play. If your dog attended daycare with us in the past, but it has been over three months ago, then we may have to re-evaluate as new dogs join our daycare and play styles may have changed since they were last seen.
*If lodging with us then we can schedule it while they’re with us.
- All dogs attending must be up to date on vaccines. If they are too young for vaccines, they must get a Veterinarian Exception Letter stating that the dog is allowed to attend daycare without the vaccines. You must also sign Wet Nose Lodge's Vaccine Waiver as well.
- Male dogs must be neutered by 6 months of age. Females must be spayed or by 9 months of age.
- If your dog is newly adopted or new to your family, then it must be living in your home at least 30 days before beginning daycare with us. Acclimating to too many environments at once can be stressful to your new family member and we want our introduction to us to be as positive as possible.
- At minimum, your dog must know and respond to their name in order for us to keep rough play in check by verbally calling them out of play and redirecting them. If your dog needs help responding to cues and commands in the presence of distraction, then we offer our Training Program that can help them be successful and safe in daycare.
- All dogs must be on a flea preventative to help keep our friends flea-free and healthy. If fleas are found on your dog then a flea bath will be given at your expense.

Evaluations
Evaluations should be scheduled Monday through Saurday with a drop-off time at 10:00am. Our team will introduce your dog to our play yards, other dogs, and other team members to see how well they tolerate a new environment. We will monitor their play style, social interactions, behavior, obedient cues, and of course, watch for any signs of aggression. We want a positive experience for your dog and want to make certain that your dog is having an enjoyable time with us as well as playing safely with others.
Our daycare evaluations are FREE! A free day of daycare will be given if accepted on the day of evaluation. *Free day of daycare cannot be redeemed at a later date.
We reserve the right to expel dogs who exhibit aggressive or destructive behavior such as gate rushing and/or excessively rough play. Dogs that continuously mount other dogs. Dogs who will not redirect after staff verbal corrections. Dogs in our daycare are always on probation. Continued acceptance is never guaranteed and is subject to their behavior on any given day.
Parents are not allowed to be present during daycare evaluations. The reason for this is that dogs behave differently when their owners are present. We want to ensure that your dog has every chance of success during their evaluation.
