Dog boarding can feel like a leap of faith, and the questions pile up fast. Who is actually watching your dog after the lights go out? When do they eat, when do they go potty, and does someone really stay overnight, or does the building just sit empty until morning? In this episode we walk you through a full day and night of boarding here in Round Rock, so you know exactly how it works and what to expect before you ever book.

Vaccines, vaccines... but the title is about whether your dog *likes* daycare. The summary is about vaccine requirements. I'll write to the title's curiosity gap while keeping it accurate to the vaccine content, since that's what the episode teaches. Let me follow the rules.

Your dog can't tell you in words whether daycare is the highlight of their week or something they'd rather skip, so how do you actually read the signs? It turns out the answer starts before drop-off even happens, with a few health basics that quietly shape how comfortable and social your pup can be around other dogs. In this episode, we walk through the body language and behavior cues that reveal how your dog really feels about daycare, plus the vaccines they need before boarding or daycare and how far ahead to get them. By the end, you'll know exactly what to look for and how to set your dog up for a happy, healthy stay in Round Rock.
