Keep Cool at Dog Daycare

We aren’t the only ones trying to beat the heat during the hot summer months in Florida. Our pets can also suffer the effects of especially hot and humid weather! While your dog will always be happy to spend time running around in the sun, in our area it can reach temperatures where it is unsafe for your dog to spend an extended period of time outside. If you have a dog with lots of energy, keeping them inside can be tough. Dog daycare in Fort Myers FL offers your dog the freedom to run around and play with other dogs in a climate-controlled environment.

Why Dog Boarding Matters

When you can’t be with your pet, there aren’t many options for ensuring their safety. While pet sitting may be a good option for some pets, boarding is the ideal choice for many pooches and owners alike.

Why is that? Pet boarding at All American Pet Resorts Fort Myers not only provides basic care, but tons of exercise too. Our environment is high activity with six play times per day for each; large dogs, small dogs, geriatric and special needs pets. We have added enrichment toys so that pets exercise their minds and they bodies. Additionally, we do a “hands-on” body check every day. Not only is this an important way for us to keep an eye on your pet’s pet physical well-being but an opportunity to provide each pet with individual attention and loving and...they love it! Your pet's stay can be customized to accommodate their preferences and personalities, and you’ll have the peace of mind knowing that your pet will be cared for by trained pet care professionals. Your dog will have a great time while you’re away, making your next business trip or family vacation less stressful for him and for you.

When Plans Change

While many people have the privilege of working from home, there are days when you find you may need to go into the office or find a quiet space away from home to complete a project or finish a day’s work. When this is the case, your beloved furry friend may be left home unexpectedly. While many dogs will be okay on their own for a few hours, puppies, senior dogs, and dogs with a lot of energy may become destructive or anxious when left home alone.

If this is the case for your pet and you find that you can’t always be home with them, dog daycare or boarding may be the solution for you and them. Daycare allows your dog the opportunity to play and expend energy in a safe and supervised manner when you can’t be with them. If you need to extend your dog’s day beyond an afternoon, boarding provides a space for your dog to enjoy meals and a good night’s sleep while you’re away.

Special Needs Pets

If you have a pet who is on medications or requires special attention, you know how important it is to find the right care for them when you can’t be there. Hiring a pet sitter or asking a friend or family member to watch your dog while you’re out of town is always an option, but can put pressure on someone to care for your pet in a way that they might not be comfortable or do not truly know how to do.

Boarding your dog at a professional pet boarding facility like All American Pet Resorts Fort Myers ensures that your pet will receive the care and attention they need and deserve while you’re away. Our trained staff is capable of safely administering medications, providing special walks or serving a prescription diet in order to meet all your pet’s needs.

When your pet requires additional attention, do not leave their health and happiness to chance. Reserve their stay at our professional pet resort today.

Hot and Cold

It can be tough to know if your pet is comfortable in extreme temperatures. While cold is less of an issue in our area than in others, it does become very hot and humid throughout several months of the year in Florida.

Most large dogs are equipped to handle the cold weather and will not require any type of jacket or sweater unless the temperature is consistently below 20 degrees. On the other hand, large dogs do not handle the hot weather as well and are at a higher risk for heat stroke.

Small dogs raise opposite concerns; hot weather is not as detrimental to their systems, but an extra layer should be kept on them when they are outside in the colder weather.

Regardless of your dog’s size or breed, it is important to limit their activity and time outside during the extreme hot and cold weather. Never withhold water and take cues from your pet - if they want to go inside or are stopping on walks, chances are they need a chance to relax in your more temperature-controlled home.

Our boarding facility offers climate-controlled buildings to keep your dog healthy and comfortable. For more information on dog boarding in Fort Myers FL, visit our website.

Leaving Toys at Home

It can be confusing for some people when a boarding facility instructs them to leave their dog’s favorite toy at home. A toy may help your pet feel safer, more secure and more at home while enjoying their stay, but may also be the harmful during the boarding experience.

Your pet may become possessive, or “resource guard,” which may be an issue for staff while caring for your pet. This type of behavior can lead to aggression and roughness between your pet and someone else’s. Toys are also prone to get damaged or lost when sent to a boarding facility with your pet. A damaged fabric toys with a squeaker could also be a choking hazard for your pet.

For the safety of your pet and the staff, it is best to let the trained staff determine which toys are the safest for the boarding environment.
