The Importance of Regular Exercise and Socialization

It’s not in a dog’s nature to be inside all day, with no socialization or interactions with others. Dogs are social creatures, with a pack mentality that has lasted through the generations. A properly socialized dog will have a better temperament and fewer behavioral problems than one without socialization. Arranging playdates with other dogs or time at the park is an important part of having a happy, well-behaved dog.

Don’t mistake socialization with having a routine. While dogs enjoy a routine, failure to expose them to a variety of animals, people, and places can lead to a development of fear of anything new. Soon, your dog will act out with any change in routine, becoming destructive, aggressive, or fearful. To combat this issue, regularly socialize your dog in doggie playgroups.

Exercise is also important for a dog’s health and well being. Different breeds have varying exercise requirements, but in general, one walk around the block isn’t enough to satisfy the average dog. Dogs may lose muscle mass, suffer weight problems, and engage in destructive behaviors due to boredom. Releasing excess energy in a fun environment can prevent these issues. A doggie day care in Needham is the ideal solution for socializing and exercising your pup properly.

As dog owners ourselves, we understand how difficult it can be to trust our beloved furry friends with strangers. That’s why we strive to be anything but strangers at Doggy Dates. We invite you to meet our team, follow us @doggy.dates on Instagram, or like us on Facebook to keep up with all our doggie day care adventures.

If you use our day care services, you may even see your pup on our social media sites! We’re always available to answer your questions and concerns during dog day care in Needham and will send you photos of your dog enjoying him/herself if you wish.

At Doggy Dates, you’ll always be in the loop.
