Top 5 Positive Reason To Choose Marley & Apple Dog Village

  • Reduced Stress: Our Individual kennels provide dogs with their own personal space, reducing stress levels by minimizing interactions with unfamiliar dogs and providing a sense of security and comfort.
  • Decreased Risk of Disease Transmission: With greater distance between kennels, there's a lower risk of contagious diseases spreading among boarded dogs, as there's less direct contact and airborne transmission between them.
  • Improved Safety: Our Individual kennels help prevent conflicts and injuries that may arise from proximity to other dogs, reducing the likelihood of fights or resource guarding behaviors.
  • Personalized Care and Attention: Boarding dogs in our individual kennels allows for more personalized care and attention from staff, as they can focus on each dog's specific needs, preferences, and medical requirements without distractions from neighboring animals.
  • Better Rest and Relaxation: Dogs in our individual kennels have the opportunity to rest and relax without the disturbance of neighboring dogs, promoting better sleep quality and overall well-being during their stay.

Top 5 Negative Reason Of Boarding In Close Proximity Kennels

  • Increased Stress: Dogs in close quarters may experience heightened stress due to the proximity of other dogs. This can lead to behavioral issues such as anxiety, aggression, or excessive barking.
  • Risk of Disease Transmission: Close proximity increases the risk of contagious diseases spreading among dogs, such as kennel cough or canine influenza, especially in facilities with inadequate ventilation or sanitation measures.
  • Competition for Resources: Dogs may perceive other boarded dogs as competition for resources such as food, water, or attention, leading to conflicts and potential injury.
  • Limited Movement and Exercise: In a confined space, dogs may have limited opportunities for exercise and movement, which can lead to physical health issues like obesity, muscle atrophy, and joint stiffness.
  • Noise Pollution: Constant barking and vocalizations from neighboring dogs in close quarters can create a noisy and stressful environment for boarded dogs, affecting their overall well-being and ability to rest.
