P.E.P. SQUAD
Personalized enrichment & play
The PEP Squad is our option for dogs who may be socially sensitive, hyper-active, highly intelligent, or high-drive and find standard group daycare to be overstimulating, stressful or even boring.
For these dogs, we take enrichment to the next level. We understand that enrichment doesn't just mean toy puzzles and frozen Kongs. Enrichment, by definition, means meeting our all of our dog's needs.
When your dog is invited to enroll in our PEP Squad, we work to ensure that your dog is both physically and mentally stimulated, that they are meeting their social needs in an environment that feels safe to them and most importantly, that they are enjoying a day that is tailored to their personal preferences.
​
Every PEP visit, your dog will participate in activities from all five of the following categories:
