🐾 Dogs Form Friendships Just Like Humans — And It's ADORABLE 🐶💕

"Hi, this is Susan, Brody's mom. I was wondering if his friends were going to be at doggie daycare today. Let me know and I'll drop him off, thanks."

This was a real voicemail left by one of our customers at Hounds Town Susan brings her dog Brody in several times a week. She doesn't just want exercise or care for him. She wants him to spend time with the group of friends he's bonded with during playtime.

"He just has more fun when his friends are there," she explains. "I see pictures and videos of him playing, and I know he'll come home happy and tired."

Dogs Make Real Connections

At Hounds Town USA, we've seen this many times. Dogs create lasting social connections through regular interaction. Whether dogs come once a week or every day, they begin to recognize their playmates. They form bonds and even seek them out the moment they walk through the door.

According to Hounds Town founder Mike Gould, "Dogs form friendships and relationships within their playgroups. These social bonds often help build confidence, especially in shy or nervous dogs, and can even reduce behavioral issues"

Creating a Natural Pack Environment

Dogs are social by nature. At Hounds Town doggie daycare, we allow dogs to engage in natural pack-style play in supervised groups. We base these groups on size and temperament. We don't over-manage their playtime. We give them the space to be themselves.

By doing so, dogs benefit from both physical and mental stimulation. A regular routine of group play helps keep them active, mentally engaged, and emotionally balanced. For many pet parents, it also provides peace of mind knowing their dog isn't home alone all day.

"Our goal is to create an environment where dogs can socialize in a way that's natural to them," says Mike. "When dogs are allowed to form relationships, they become more confident and emotionally healthy."

More Than Just Daycare

From overnight boarding to grooming services, our entire facility is built around the idea of giving dogs the care, freedom, and interaction they need to do well.

If you've ever noticed your dog seems more relaxed after a day at daycare, or excited to return, it might be the friendships they've made along the way.
