Doggie Day Care Benefits You and Your Pet

My name is Brandon Fellows, and I’m the proud dad of a Boxer. Max, my Boxer, is also known as the “Energizer Bunny.” I’m sure you can imagine why he has that nickname. I’d be lying if I said Max and I have always had it easy. In fact, there was a time I was considering finding a new home for Max. I work full-time, and when I got home I didn’t have enough time or energy to give Max what he needed. Not until I started taking him to day care. Doggie day care is exactly what him and I needed. I’m excited to share more about this. I’m going to tell you how life has improved since using it, and hopefully answer some questions. Thanks for stopping by!
