After their stay with us…

We feed the pups around 8am and 4pm each day. Water is always available during their stay. We refresh their bowls in their suite and it is available in daycare as well. When they come home they will be excited and will likely be thirsty. Please monitor how much water they drink. If they are excited and drink too much they may vomit. You may want to give them time to settle down before giving them food or water.
