Enrolling at Creedons

Looking for Doggie Daycare Cork City? Here at Creedons, we believe it’s important to only accept dogs at our daycare facility that both want to be here and play in a safe and appropriate manner.

While our daycare facility can be wonderful for avoiding the development of behaviour issues, it is not the right environment to treat behavior problems, or to overcome fear, anxiety, or aggressive behaviors, as this is not fair to either the dog with the behavior problem or our other patrons.

While it might sound counterproductive, we pride ourselves on having the highest non-compatibility rate of daycare in Cork, as the happiness of our canine clients comes before profit. We want to be fussy about which dogs become members, so that all dogs have a quality experience when coming to Creedons to play.

To ensure all dogs are a suitable match for doggie daycare you are initially required to attend one to two Social Club sessions, so your dog becomes familiar with the environment with you present, our staff have time to see if your dogs playstyle is a good fit for daycare, and so that you can learn a little about explaining dog play behaviour to you.

Next, once our staff determine that your dog would, in their opinion, enjoy playing at Creedons, you are then able to book your dog in for two taster visits to doggie daycare.

The process is friendly, with the best for your dog in mind. If we believe that daycare may not be the right choice for you dog we will discuss some alternative, perhaps more suitable, solutions.

Daycare Induction Social Club :

Before your dog attends daycare they must first do an induction in our social club. This involves coming to 1-2 of our social club sessions.

After your first social club session, our trainer will offer feedback on if she thinks your dog could do with another social club session or if your dog can go straight to daycare! We ask that you then do 1-2 test days of daycare, all this means is that someone you trust is “on call” to collect your dog in case they’re really not having a good time here. After they have been in for their 2 days of daycare, they will become an official member.

What is a daycare taster social club?

Daycare tasters are just a great way for us to introduce you and your dogs to daycare and assess whether the daycare environment is suitable for them.
These social club sessions can be booked with this link!

What do I need to bring?

All you need to bring to the taster is yourself, your dogs, some treats for your dogs, and a standard-length lead.What are the requirements for enrolling in daycare?

– Your dogs must be fully vaccinated including for kennel cough
– Your dogs must be friendly and comfortable with unfamiliar dogs and people
– Your dogs must attend daycare at least every 6 weeks to remain active membersDo my dogs need to be neutered to attend daycare?

We do find that dogs who are neutered are generally a much better match for the daycare environment but it’s not a necessity as later neutering has become encouraged by vets.We just like owners to be aware that if our daycare staff notice that it’s affecting your dog’s behaviour in daycare, then we may need to inform you that your dog is not suitable for the daycare environment.

Note: Female dogs cannot attend daycare when they are in heat for their own safety and comfort.

What is the cost of the social club?

The cost is €19.99 per dog.You can book in by clicking here:
