In the year of 1989 times were like eternal bliss. Deb had the kennel and was easily running it by herself.  One might question how it is possible to run a kennel by yourself?   To begin, you should keep the dogs on a low key and under control so you don’t have to stand over them in a group.  It is more than possible, the secret, know your dogs. 

Around 1999 Deb had introduced the concept of doggie daycare, charging it only as an add-on to clients that were already boarding.  The concept of dogs put together all day and night, now dogs do travel in packs in the wild, making this idea bringing them closer to their natural state.  Tap into the dogs natural state tends to make them more relaxed and happier overall.  So, Deb puts together a package that offered Monday through Friday, daycare from 6:00 in the morning to 8:00 at night, for the cost of $we25.00 per week. 
The first recorded Doggie Daycare was established circa 1987, however, the concept was dated back as far as 1973 according to the New York Times.  Daycare took off in the early 1990s all over the US, and Deb was in the thick of it.
