DOGGY DAY CARE CENTRE near Blackburn for Sale.

A spacious, well ventilated, open play area split into two play zones. This allows the placement of the dogs into appropriate play groups according to size, age, temperament. The concept is similar to children’s soft play centres but for the furry four-footed species, offering lots of individual pet care and attention.

Each area has lots of toys, changes in level, ramps and lots of things to run through, around and jump on and off. This is important because it allows the dogs to make up their own games using the equipment, and it provides lots of mental stimulation for them. Most importantly the dogs have the freedom to run with the pack, make friends and let off steam in a safe, supervised environment.
