Duncan Does Daycare

Sleeping off a busy day

Today was a big day for Duncan – he passed the entrance exam for doggy daycare!

This morning I took him to Country Haven Kennel. It's a bit of a drive, but it was highly recommended by his teachers at school. Before they accept a new dog, they do a 5-hour assessment, to make sure that he'll fit in. I wasn't actually sure Duncan would even make it to the door, let alone manage to get through 5 hours, he was so excited about all the wonderful country smells. They even have horses! But he loved playing and running with his new friends. His only complaint was that the dogs all go into crates for a quiet time at lunch time. Apparently he explained quite loudly that he wasn't tired and didn't want to rest, but he had to anyway.

He's a tired little boy now, and he's curled up sleeping it off. He's going to go back again next Friday for more fun with his friends.
