We absolutely love this ❤️ Thank you MeMyMa Australian Shepherds for sharing such an important message.

We’re so passionate about creating a daycare environment that is more than just play, with structured socialisation, enrichment, obedience, rest and confidence building throughout the day.

Every dog is different, so good daycare comes down to knowing the dogs in your care, grouping them appropriately, closely supervising play and managing interactions well. When it’s done properly, daycare can support ongoing social development, build confidence and be such a positive and enriching part of a dog’s life 🐾

🐾 Why I Recommend Doggy Daycare for My Puppies & Dogs 🐾

As a breeder, one of the things I love most is seeing my puppies grow into happy, confident family dogs. ❤️

One thing I often recommend to my puppy families is doggy daycare, especially for those who have busy lifestyles or dogs that enjoy plenty of social interaction.

A good daycare can provide so many benefits:
🐶 Safe and supervised socialisation with other dogs
🐾 Confidence building in new environments
🧠 Mental stimulation and enrichment
🏃 Plenty of exercise and play
❤️ Human interaction and attention throughout the day
😴 A happy, tired pup ready to relax at home!

Australian Shepherds are intelligent, social dogs and generally love being included in family life. Doggy daycare can be a great addition to their routine when it is the right environment and the individual dog enjoys it.

I always recommend choosing a daycare that takes the time to understand your dog, has appropriate supervision, carefully manages play groups and puts safety, temperament and wellbeing first.

For my puppy families, socialisation doesn’t stop when they leave my home. It’s something that continues throughout their lives. 💕

A well-socialised, confident dog is a wonderful companion, and I love seeing my MeMyMa babies enjoying life and making new friends! 🐾❤️

Daycare Booking Update 🐾

A quick update on our daycare availability:

Big dogs
Our regular weekly and fortnightly spots are now full.
New big dogs are still very welcome to join us, but attendance will now be casual only when spaces become available.

Small dogs
We still have a limited number of regular weekly/fortnightly spots available, as well as casual attendance when space allows.

Casual bookings
When you request a casual booking through the app, you’ll be prompted to join the waitlist. We often have cancellations throughout the week, so we’ll work through the waitlist and confirm bookings as those spots become available.

New dogs can still book a Come & Try session as usual.

If you’d like to join the waitlist for a regular big dog spot, just let us know and we can add you.

A reminder that cancellations with less than 24 hours’ notice for non-genuine reasons will incur our 50% late cancellation fee, as these spots can often be offered to another dog waiting to attend.

We’re incredibly grateful to have reached this point and want to make sure we continue keeping our group sizes safe, manageable and enjoyable for all 🩵

Thank you,
Shanae & Todd
