Daycare vs. Dog Walking | Dog Care

Dog owners want their dogs to be healthy, happy, adjusted, and well-mannered. NYC can be a very challenging place for a dog to live. Most NYC dog owners have a dog walker for their dog; a dog walk provides little of value beyond giving a dog a chance to relieve itself outside. With over 30 years of experience providing almost seven million services to dogs, Biscuits & Bath has found that day care is a much better experience for many dogs. Come in to one of our locations to experience the many ways that your dog can benefit from day care – all for a great value. Check out our breakdown between daycare vs. dog walking:

	Day Care	Dog Walking
Exercise	An hour of OFF-LEASH running and playing = four 30min walks	Typical walk = 30-60min Base on age/breed, dogs need 2+ hour of exercise daily
Socialization	Vetted for health; divided by size and temperament	High risk given all the unknowns
Mental Stimulation	Varying energy levels require in-moment problem-solving	Leads to boredom and undesirable behaviors
Confidence Building	Controlled exposure to new stimuli encouraging curiosity, not fear	Unpredictable stimuli creating fear-induced reactions
Safety	Oversight from trainers and veterinarian; facility design based on decades of experience	Flight risk, dangers from environment, theft/damage to property
