Activities For Dogs In Nevada On Rainy Days

No matter what your dog's background, every one of them will have to go through the membership application process, which is nothing to sneeze at. The first step is filling out a form that details what you're looking for and information about your dog's basics like breed and age to their temperament. After you've completed the paperwork, you'll need to send in your dog's health records to make sure they're up to date on proper vaccinations. Then you and they will be scheduled for a membership interview, which is an hour-long process and could entail you leaving them at the facility to have their behavior fully evaluated. If they fail some aspect, it may be suggested that they go through additional conditioning or training before reapplying or simply suggested that they work with one of the trainers before receiving full access to the services and facility (hey, we never said it was easy!). Once they're finally approved, you'll have all the services opened up so you can take advantage of daycare, boarding, training, classes, and access to the off-leash areas.

The process isn't easy or cheap but if you do get approved, make sure you take advantage and get your time and money's worth. Weather in Nevada can often be a bit rough, whether it's too hot or on the off-chance it does happen to rain or get nasty out. When it does, you'll have a refuge to go to where you and they can burn off some energy, learn some new commands, and do some socializing in the process.

Checking out any of the local barkeries takes little more than some basic research. Start by finding out which are closest to you or which seem the most interesting. There are certainly plenty to choose from, but the most popular seem to be Three Dog Bakery, Woof Gang Bakery, and Barking Dogs, and all three seem to offer additional shopping options and services you can take advantage of during your visits or help you plan for a future visit.

Pick a spot or stop by multiple locations and see what each individual place offers, as they seem to have their own strengths. For instance, Three Dog seems to have a fantastic overall selection, while some Woof Gang locations also offer grooming and even vet services. Barking Dog seems to be the most down to earth and is stacked to the ceiling with healthy food options and helpful staff who will help inform you of what might improve your dog's health and wellbeing, on top of their additional services. With the rain, you'll have more than enough time to check out everything they have to offer and stay dry and have something to do in the process!

No one wants to get stuck in the rain for too long, so if you're going to set up your mini food and drink tour, it's best that you plan ahead so you're well prepared. Unless you plan on hopping back into your car after every stop, try to plan ahead so you can just pop an umbrella and walk in between locations for a tour that gets your dog exercise in between tasty treats. There are plenty of places to choose from, but the highest recommendations come from Egg & I (along with Egg Works) as their staff loves dogs and always has treats handy, Krayvings, because of their extensive patio cover, and our favorite pick, Lazy Dog, which actually has chef-made healthy dog meals for your pooch's pleasure.

See if you can find a string of them within walking distance or multiple places to visit where your dog can try food prepared specifically for them to see where their tastes reside (chances are they'll really just be happy to get something that isn't good food). Once you've checked the weather and defined your stops, you just need to hit the ground walking!
