Keep the Click-Clack Away: The Importance of Monthly Nail Trims

We’ve all heard that "click-click-click" on the hardwood floor—that’s your dog’s way of telling you it’s time for a trim! While it might seem like a small detail, keeping your dog's nails short is one of the most important things you can do for their long-term...

Meet Lucy
5 Years Old Havanese
Owned & Loved By: Lyn Jacques

 
Lucy first started attending daycare in August of last year and quickly became a staff favorite. She was such a shy girl at first, opting to hang out on the sidelines and watch all the activity from afar. After a while, Lucy realized she was missing out on the fun. She has now become a social butterfly! She is the sweetest, most welcoming girl to all dogs and people. She doesn’t play often, but when she does she usually picks the shy or socially awkward dogs who haven’t figured out how to make friends with anyone yet. Her play is always gentle, inviting, and appropriate. No dog can resist her charm! She is also very sweet and loving with the staff. She gives the best cuddles without being pushy or demanding. One of our favorite things is when she comes dressed in a sweater. Once the sweater comes off, she becomes the most adorable ball of static fuzz! Lucy brings so much joy and warmth to our days and we are grateful to have her as a part of our daycare family!
