If you have to leave home for long periods of time, your pup is likely to get extremely bored. To prevent potty accidents and destructive behavior, you may want to consider doggy daycare, but is it right for you and your pet?

The biggest consideration for many pet parents is the cost. Doggy daycare is much cheaper than regular childcare, but it still takes money from your monthly budget. If you don’t have enough money for doggy daycare, consider having a friend or family member check in on your dog every day.

The location of the facility is important too. Is it on your way to and from work? Or will you have to drive across town in order to pick up and drop off your dog?

You should also consider how your dog deals with strangers. For a list of doggy daycare facilities in the area, click here, or call your vet Mt. Pocono, PA.
