Beverly Israel is enjoying a final few minutes with her excitable pooch Reese. The dog's excited for another day at Walks and Wags doggie daycare.

“We live in apartment so we don't have a back yard and this is a great place for her to play dog,” says Israel. Cindie Carter turned her big back yard into a canine playground three years ago.

“Your dog is part of your family so their dog needs to have a social life too,” says Cater, the owner of Walks and Wags. The workers here spend the day playing with the dogs and making sure they're worn out.

“This is a place where your dog can have a great time while you're working and you both come home tired and relaxed and enjoy the evening together,” says Carter. It might not be a fair comparison but there are a lot of similarities between dog daycare and daycare for kids, starting with rules.

“We have boundaries just like you would with a child they have boundaries they have nap time, snack time have treat time,” says Carter. She says they handle about 20 dogs a day. Some are initially scared of other dogs and need to be taught how to play nice with others. For more information, you can click on the link on this page.

Sounds like a more expensive doggie walking service but if ya got the money spend it ,the economy needs it.
