Did you know that the lack of socialization during critical stages of development in puppy hood is a primary factor in the development of behavior challenges. Socializing your puppy correctly will make you dog less fearful, less reactive, and a much happier dog.
We welcome puppies over 10 weeks. They will have their own area to play in and will be socialized with other puppies of their age. Once they become socialized and mature they will be ready for daycare.
Puppy socials are geared towards pups from 10 week - 5 months. After 5 months or if they are too big they are ready for regular half days of daycare.
Please note that if you would like your puppy to attend full days of daycare and they are under 6 months, we will require them to attend several puppy socials and successfully attend half days of daycare before this is approved.
Our current Socials are Monday and Wednesday 1 pm - 3 pm. A reservation is required. We will be adding another day soon. Please note that the front doors will be locked 11:30 am - 12:30. We will not allow for drop offs or pick ups of dogs during this time. So please bring your dog no earlier then 12:45 for puppy social.
All dogs over 6 months must be spayed or neutered. We do not accept a vasectomy as replacement for neutering. Proof of vaccinations (Rabies, Bordatella, DAPPV) are required and must be current at all times.
If you are interested please fill out an application and email proof of vaccinations. Send to houseofruff@gmail.com
