These days there’s no reason that busy people can’t have a canine companion. At our dog daycare in Beverly Hills, we cater to the needs of professionals and families alike. Our facility is a home away from home for our guests. If your work schedule requires you to be out of the house for more than 8 hours at a time, we encourage you to bring your dog to us. We can provide supervision, exercise, socialization, and entertainment throughout the day.
It’s a common misconception that dogs can be left alone for long periods. There are a surprising number of things in your home that can be dangerous to your unattended pet; some of these you may not have even considered a risk.
Human Food
Coffee, chocolate, grapes, chicken bones, onions… All these common food items have dangerous elements, which can result in kidney failure, seizures, serious injuries, and even death. Dogs should never be given caffeine, and the darker the chocolate, the more toxic it is. Chicken bones are a choking hazard and can cause damage to your dog’s digestive tract.It is very common for dogs to get into the trash when no one’s home, so it’s a good idea to take out all the garbage before leaving your dog unsupervised for extended time periods.
Medications
Most people keep their medications stored in dog-proof bottles and up high enough that they can’t be reached. However, if you use a pill organizer or leave the bottle uncapped by mistake, it could be disastrous. Usually, if a pet ingests human medication and it’s discovered right away, a trip to the vet can prevent any permanent damage. Although if your dog is alone and unsupervised all day, the chance for early intervention is lost.
For peace of mind, our dog daycare in Beverly Hills is a safe place to leave your dog during the workday, so come check it out!
