Cabin Fever Is Real—For Dogs Too! How Daycare Helps Beat the Winter Blues

Winter often means fewer walks, less outdoor play, and more time indoors—for both people and pets. Just like humans, dogs can experience cabin fever when their routines change.

Signs Your Dog May Have the Winter Blues:

• Excess energy or restlessness

• Destructive behavior

• Increased barking or whining

• Weight gain from reduced activity

How Daycare Helps

Dog daycare provides structured play, social interaction, and mental stimulation in a warm, safe environment. Dogs get the exercise they need while learning healthy social behaviors.

Benefits of Winter Daycare:

• Physical exercise to burn energy

• Mental enrichment to prevent boredom

• Socialization with other dogs

• A consistent routine during colder months

For busy pet parents, daycare also provides peace of mind—knowing your dog is active, supervised, and having fun while you’re at work.

Downtown Dog Resort and Spa has daycare every day. We open at 6 am and close at 8 pm.
