Have you found a good daycare for reactive dogs? We have a no-touch kennel for if/when we go out of town but haven't found a place for when we are in a pinch and our scaredy-cat dog would benefit from a daycare situation when we are gone for work for the day.

Sure! It's Hickory Kennels in Forest Hill. A bit of a hike but they take care of our pup.

Ours is typically only leash reactive and sometimes reactive when there’s a chain link fence/fence she can see out of. We take her to doggy daycare and she does well with other dogs when she’s off leash. Sometimes she gets overstimulated so the daycare staff know her signals and know to pull her out and give her some alone time. It’s a kennel free doggy daycare so they are never in cages, even overnight for boarding. We usually just have to coordinate with staff for drop off and pick up since she’s on leash for that part. Our daycare likely wouldn’t work for a dog who is reactive off leash

Can I PM you for your daycare recommendation for our trainer? We eventually found one, but the first one we tried was awful. Way too many dogs to not enough people and my pup was miserable.

It depends on how reactive they are, but mines also a scaredy cat and I found a daycare willing to work with us! They’re so patient with getting her acclimated slowly. Came up with a plan and everything. PM me
