Why Outdoor Doggy Day Care Brisbane
We are so happy we started an Outdoor Doggy Day Care Business. It’s by far the best thing we’ve ever done. This career brings us so much joy that we are often very emotional & brought to tears during the Day because we see first hand what a difference it makes in dog’s life. The dogs exhibit so much happiness that we can’t help but feel the love & gratitude for our job. We feel so blessed to do such meaningful work. After first hand experience at working at doggy daycare centre’s, we were inspired to evolve and to offer Brisbane an alternative to small warehouse style options. We felt that many dogs were not suited to this type of environment, (indoor, small & overcrowded) with many dogs overwhelmed & experiencing anxiety. We therefore felt compelled to make a change in the Industry. It became our Dream to create a Doggy Day Care Experience (with a unique difference) & that suited all dogs. We dreamed of wide open spaces (for the dogs to exercise) & the Beach as the Destination/ Backdrop. It was vital the Dogs experienced Fresh Air, Sunshine, Grass, Sand & Beach & lots of room to Run & Play & Swim.
Nowhere else do clients see Video proof of how much exercise their dog is getting. We capture the whole experience, on a 3 to 5 minute video of the day. This unique & professionally edited video is produced for our clients every single time their dog attends doggy day care with Houndog! As a bonus, 50c from every dog attending day care, is donated to charity, as our way of giving back to our local and global community. This equates to approximately a $50 per fortnight donation.
The inspiration to move outdoors came from being raised on the land, in a small country town, where our Dad broke in horses and we were surrounded at home by a menagerie of animals that included chooks, goats, guinea pigs and of course Dogs. We started “Houndog” 6 years ago. Brisbane’s Non-Warehouse Option which incorporated “Doggy Daytrips” to the beach as our main area of focus. We knew our “time poor” Clients would love the mobile pick up and drop off aspect as well. Our Outdoor Active Doggy Day Care only uses only Expert Qualified Dog Trainers within small Personalised Groups. Angela and I are heavily involved and very hands on with the doggy’s that attend dog daycare. From being the one’s who pick up and drop off, to exercise, training and swimming them all! We pride ourselves in meeting & getting to know every single one of our Clients & their dog. The personal touch and direct face to face dealings with all of our clients is a vital part of our success. All of our Clients Dogs know us and love us because we have taken the time to create very strong bonds with them all, through our personal one on one interactions with them every week.
It is indeed a very physical job and it definitely keeps us fit! We truly believe & know in our hearts, there’s simply no better doggy day care experience for your dog. We could not be so passionate if we didn’t live and breathe this Industry! We absolutely could not have done any of this without the support of the Best Clients in the World, who really understand our Outdoor Concept. We never take you guys for granted….Thankyou so much!
