Barking Hound Village Daycare - Downtown ATX

This morning I knew something was up.  I wasn't asked to go into my kennel after my morning walk.  Mom left my harness on while she finished dressing for the day. I knew I was going somewhere, I just didn't know where. 

Mom and Dad got their computer bags together and jingled their keys and just as I suspected, I was going with them today! We had a short car ride and arrived at my new daycare, Barking Hound Village. 

I was so excited to be there!  I could already smell all the other dogs and I needed to hurry up and meet them. I didn't even care to say goodbye to my parents even though Mom tried to hug me tight. I squirmed away from Mom and went immediately with Miss Sarah, my new daycare teacher. 

Miss Sarah took me to my own private kennel made up of soothing white picket fences.  No metal crates here at Barking Hound Village.  I am surrounded by my new dog friends who also have their own white picket fence kennels.  Inside my kennel I have a raised cot, my own water bowl, and a view of the TV which is tuned into Animal Planet (my fav).  Some of the other dogs have their own blankets and toys that they brought from home. I'll definitely need to speak to Mom about packing my  own blanket and toys to bring to daycare.  Miss Sarah told me to just relax for a little while and soon I will get to go to the playground with all the other dogs!  

Here I am with Mom and Dad on my first day of daycare. 

And here I am on the playground with my new daycare friends!
