Home Sweet Home Away from Home
Going on vacation? Why not treat your dog to one, as well? Our friendly and attentive team will do everything possible to ensure Repuplic feels like a home away from home for your pup. Whether you need to board your dog for an overnight stay, the weekend, a holiday, or extended care, your dog will spend their days enjoying supervised open play with their BFFFs (Best Furry Friends Forever) and their nights enjoying restful sleep.
While Here
While at Repuplic Pets your dog will be free to play or relax the entire time while always being supervised . We offer a couple of different styles of boarding to cater to our many clients such as group boarding or boarding in a private suite with or without group play.
Going Home
After an exciting boarding stay at Repuplic Pets, it’s important to ensure your dog adapts well to being back home. While at Repuplic Pets, your dog received access to unlimited water in their playroom or Suite. However, it is still likely they will seem very thirsty upon returning home. This is a common reaction to the excitement of being back at home with their family. Please withhold water from them for the first 30 minutes that they are home. After they have calmed down from the excitement of being home, you should then give them a small bowl of water and continue to monitor their water consumption for the next few hours. Dogs that drink too much water too quickly may lead to vomiting or, in very serious cases, could lead to bloat.
We recommend waiting at least three hours from the time you arrive home to offer their next feeding. Again, they will be very happy to be home and quite excited. Similar to the side effects of drinking water too quickly, eating too quickly may cause illness.
Repuplic Pets is a very active environment, with the dogs interacting for several hours per day. Even if your dog did not run all day, simply being awake can make them very, very tired. At home, most dogs sleep the day away getting 18 or more hours of sleep. Although the dogs sleep approximately eight hours per night, they will be tired. Please let them rest. We do not recommend that you take them to the dog park or any other social environment for at least a few days.
