As dog owners, we are able to see exactly how our canines experience separation anxiety. It could be from the absence of their favorite human (their owner, the family children, etc.) or they could be affected by the temporary or permanent absence of another animal they had lived with. The bottom line is our dogs are creatures of companionship and that need for guidance is not a trait that they mature out of.  A shocking 20% of the housed dogs in the United States are said to deal with separation anxiety in some shape or form. So as owners, we should be asking ourselves: “How can we accommodate our dog when we leave them in someone else’s hands? The best route for your dog is to leave them at an animal resort like us here at Halo House, that offers high quality dog boarding services. When you leave your dog at a dog daycare south jersey, you will see a more relaxed reaction then if you were to leave your canine at a more basic kennel service. 

What exactly are these impacts or differences?

 

Input on daily socialization/activity

It is never a bad thing to give an employee at the resort too much information. Be sure to communicate if your dog has certain social or active habits so they can have it noted for handlers. Even the slightest accommodation can make a world of difference in the outcome of your dog’s day.

Two-way communication

We all want to know if or when something is going wrong with our dog. We do not want to wait to hear about it three days later when we get back from vacation. With the great accessibility of these resorts, you will definitely hear about an incident in a short time frame.

Option to bring a familiar item along

There is a portion of dogs out there that are territorial and have items they keep close by such as a bone or a toy. If that makes even a little difference for your dog, we would be happy to accommodate an item brought along but kept in sleeping space. 

Educated and passionate trainers/handlers

Employees of animal resorts are very qualified and invested in the well-being of these animals. Many other overnight options can be less caring, at Halo House and other animal resorts, that is not the case.
