Dog daycare
Dog Daycare, often known as "Doggie Daycare," refers to a short-term boarding kennel service for dogs. It shares many similarities with a regular daycare for children, with the exception being that a dog daycare is for canines.〔Baranauckas, Carla (24 September 2006). (A Dog’s Life, Upgraded ), ''The New York Times''〕 It fills a niche between multi-day kennel boarding and pet sitting, where the sitter comes to the pet's home.
The two share the same philosophy. Parents, or in the case of the dog daycare, owners, have a busy schedule and the often prolonged hours at work drastically reduce the time that could be spent with their children or pets.〔(29 August 1999). (Dog day care center cares for pets of workaholics ), ''Victoria Advocate'' (New York Times News Service copy)〕
==Background==
The popularity of such establishments in the United States and elsewhere has grown greatly since the early 1990s, and arose out of the more traditional kennel industry.〔Strasburg, Jenny (4 November 2000). (Longer work days lead to need for doggy day care ), ''Today's New Herald'' (reprint of article originally published in ''The San Francisco Examiner'', distributed broadly)〕〔Lee, Jean H. (20 August 1999). (Dog owners lining up for day care services ), ''Bangor Daily News'' (Associated Press story)〕〔Knight, Rebecca M. (26 September 1999). (Day Care for the Dog, Peace for the Owner ), ''The New York Times''〕〔(9 September 1973). (A Day-Care Center For the Lonely Dog ), ''The New York Times'' (noting the unique "day care" for dogs concept in a 1973 article)〕〔(3 November 1996). (Dog-Lovers of the World, Unite! ), ''Newsday'' (""Following the lead of the boom in pet care and pet products, dog day-care centers have opened all over the country, from Boston to Louisville to San Francisco, expanding the services offered by dog walkers to include play groups, sofas and chairs to snooze on, and classical music. The tab for this comes high, $75 to $100 for a five-day week, or $6,000 to $8,000 per dog at a Somerville, Mass., day-care center.")〕 Prior to World War II, dogs more commonly lived outside in the United States, but as urbanization spread dogs started to live indoors more frequently. Other factors, including an increase in the population of adults without children, have gradually led to more attention and money being spent on pets. The first modern dog day care in New York City, Yuppie Puppy Pet Care, Inc. was reportedly opened in 1987,〔Lewine, Edward. (A Dog's Luxe Life ), ''The New York Times'' (dating the first dog day care in New York to 1987, and noting huge change in how dogs are treated since the 1940s)〕 by Joseph S. Sporn. San Francisco, another wealthy American city, has also been credited for spurring the dog day care trend.〔
