With playtime, nap time, and educational and enrichment activities on the schedule, daycare for dogs is remarkably like daycare for children, said Bark Avenue CEO and owner Meghan Wilke, who continues to evolve the services the company is offering.
“The benefits of enrichment daycare are greater than what you get with dogs who only do group play. As a second-generation owner of this longstanding Omaha business [founded in 2000 by her mother-in-law Suzanne Wilke], I’m proud to be taking the company to this next level,” Wilke said.
“The crazy play is fun but should be balanced with other activities that get them thinking. We’re working on stimulating them more by teaching them tricks and cues and practicing their recall. Our team wants to be known for having Omaha’s best dogs.”
In addition to dog daycare, Bark Avenue offers overnight stays and grooming.
