Exercise and playtime through day care enables your best friend to develop skills that will not only benefit Fido, but will make your life easier. A tired pup is a better-behaved pup. The RWL offers day care Monday through Friday with drop-off as early as 6 a.m. and pick up until 5:45 p.m.

Playgroups are separated according to size and temperament. The Lodge offers a three-acre, wooded and fenced play park. Our well-trained techs are always close by and all guests are slowly introduced into a group. For more info email or phone 812.867.9663.

Best friends must be friendly with other dogs, as they participate in group play during the day. Canines over the age of five months must be altered (spayed or castrated). We require a copy of up-to-date vaccination records (the Bordetella vaccine must be given 10 days prior to arrival), a copy of our forms found at the bottom of this page and reservations for an assessment day to meet your best friend to make certain they enjoy group play. After the assessment, we will discuss a time and day to schedule your best friend for a play date. After the first full day visit we can discuss possible weekly visits. Reservations are required for the daycare program and space is limited.

One of the reasons we offer daycare is to help develop social skills with other canines. Our everyday guests play the role of Meet and Greet Ambassadors!

Dogs of all ages are welcomed. We encourage enrollment into daycare as early as possible as pups have a short period to learn good social skills.

The Puppy Room is a place that is filled with high energy and rambunctious puppies. They play together here and grow up together. Once they are larger they graduate to the bunkhouse area and the large parks with the older dogs.

The wooded parks make an excellent location for the dogs to run and play. The sporting breeds love it as the top of the trees are filled with friendly but smart squirrels.

Learning "bite inhibition" at an early age encourages a soft mouth and teaches pups not to bite human hands, feet, etc. One of the several elements taught in our private Puppy Classes.

The day care program is built around best friends playing in organized groups on specific days. Pups build bonds for life, starting young and staying until they are in the old pups groups.

We have mandatory Naptime. Very few pups play non-stop at home. We require pups take a break and have short rests throughout the day. It keeps them from becoming grumpy:)
