WOW what can I say.the staff are wonderful the atmosphere is electric and we all love Diggiddy Doggy Daycare- especially the puppys.
Taj has been attending the center since its opening and I couldn'tt have a happier dog.
He is well socialized and has constant training by the staff.
By the way he falls fast asleep in the car on the way home after hes been to daycare I know its been a day full of fun and excise for him. Couldn't live without them.

With cold wintery days making it less attractive to get out for a walk and city living not providing much of a back yard I have found Diggiddy Doggy daycare a great solution to help keep my doggy (Jack) super happy. He also used to be a bit shy around other dogs and had some behavioural issues the girls helped me work on with him. Lovely friendy genuine staff. This day care centre is now a permanent part for Jacks weekly life. Highly recommend.

My dog has had a wonderful time at this daycare centre and it is clear the staff care about the dogs. However, when my dog was injured I felt that their focus shifted. My impression came from them contacting my dogs' vet and discussing his condition without my knowledge or consent. I raised this concern with them and they were quite dismissive which immediately made me feel that their focus was not entirely on my dog's wellbeing. It disappointed me that the service I received differed when an injury possibly requiring treatment occurred. I'm sure your dogs will enjoy this daycare centre but just beware.

  I don't know your story so I can't comment on it, but I can say that I found that the staff were so helpful with my little boy. On a late night walk he had chewed down on a stick which I thought was fine. I dropped him to daycare (his fave place in the whole wide world) the next morning and by 11.00am I had received a call from a concerned staff member saying that Mort was not acting himself and that he was quiet and seemed uncomfortable. The staff immediately arranged for me to collect him and get checked over by the vets who proceeded to do xrays and then onto removing the stick which was wedged inside my pup. It was only a small stick but enough to cause damage if it wasn't picked up by the caring handlers at diggiddy. When I turned up at the vet to collect my pup, they informed me that one of the girls from the daycare had called to check in on him and I thought that was lovely. It's so warming that they took time out of their busy day to see that he was alright. Brilliant place x

  Louisemoo, I'm glad your experience turned out better than mine. Ever since my dog was well enough to get out and about again (three weeks of full crating then slow return to activities) he has been very nervous around bigger dogs - he will lie down or lie on his back in a submissive manner when larger dogs are within three metres of him. I thought it strange that when he was injured they brought out a dog to show me the size of dog he was apparently playing with when he was injured, but my dog's reaction since that time makes me wonder again. My dog has been to day care centres back in his home state before and after the even where he has had more positive experiences - and I would just caution people to read the "fine print" carefully, ask about ratio of human staff to dogs and their policy about observing the dogs. There are lots of day care centres for dogs around - I highly recommend them for great dog socialisation - but just be very picky and make sure you have a good gut feel.
