I just discovered a great Doggie Daycare place for Charlie. The best part about it, it's only a 3-5 minute drive from my house. It's Clever Dog. This is Charlie's 2nd Day there. He went for the first time on Tuesday. He comes home happy and tired when he's been to Daycare. He can be with other dogs in a pack or he can play with them. He gets walked every few hours and the staff plays with him. The place is clean and very spacious. They have the dogs separated by personality and size. Another cool thing is they have a live NANNY CAM or Doggie Cam. You can log on anytime and see how your pup is doing. They are open from 7AM - 7PM on weekdays, 10AM - 5PM and are closed on Sundays. You can also board your dog or have your dog groomed at Cleverdog.
I hate having to put Charlie in Jail (I mean, in his crate) while I'm gone for a long day showing houses, on listing appointments or in the office. I feel like I've discovered the best thing since sliced bread for me and my dog at Cleverdog! 
The Cleverdog Facility is in the same warehouse facility space as the Capitol Dog Training Club.

Hey Patricia,
Thanks for commenting. That place is sooo organized. They are in the process of remodeling - Looks like it's going to be even bigger and nicer very soon. What a lifesaver it's going to be for me!
Does Willie behave and stay by himself in the house while you work or go out for long periods?
I think these doggie daycares are great, leaving a dog alone all day is no fun for anyone. Can you imagine how boring and lonesome that must be?
Ok So I am saying to myself is Debbie a dog lover? Then I say Well, of course she is! My travel and lifestyle make it impossible for me to make the wonderful commitment to being a dog owner. I however love them and met very few (except this really crazy terrier 2 doors down, they moved) who don't love me back and try to follow me home. Sounds like a great place for your pooch.
