[Discussion]Would it be ok to ask a doggie daycare center to not allow dog to nap while she's there? https://ift.tt/eA8V8J My dog currently lives with my parents as I'm attending school out of state. We have her in doggie daycare 5 days a week, as both of my parents work full time. This particular doggie daycare center gives the dogs a 1½ hour rest period where all the dogs are moved to individual kennels (the owners are also allowed to leave the dog's own crate at the center). This not only gives the dogs a chance to rest, but also gives the daycare workers a chance to tidy up the main indoor play area. According to the daycare attendants, my dog spends a good portion of her time there napping in her crate even outside of the rest period, which doesn't really come as a surprise to me as she's strictly a people dog and never cared much for interacting with other dogs. Recently, both of my parents shared with me that when they bring her home every evening, she's active to the point of being a nuisance. Before I left for school, I would always play with her/shower her with attention whenever I came home from work. My parents think that a good way to remedy the situation would be to ask the daycare attendants to not give her the nap period and just possibly leave her in the outdoor play area during this time, and to also discourage her from napping at any time while she's there.
