Uncaged day care

I agree with Nikki, they do kennel the dogs when they eat to prevent food aggression. I think this is important.

It completely depends on your dog's temperament. When dogs stay with us, it is mostly cage-free, except for dogs whose parents request they sleep in kennel. I do separate them into kennels for mealtimes, but when they're done eating, they come out.

For daycare and cage-free boarding, most places will require the dogs to go through a temperament assessment prior to acceptance.
