Why Puppies Need Special Care

Puppies aren’t just small dogs. They have different needs – more frequent meals, shorter attention spans, developing immune systems, and emotional sensitivity that can shape their relationship with boarding for life. A bad first experience can create lasting anxiety. A great one builds confidence. At Marsh Run, we treat every puppy stay as a critical developmental opportunity:
•Gentle, individualized attention – no overwhelming group environments
•Consistent routines – feeding, potty breaks, nap times tailored to your puppy’s age
•Safe socialization – controlled introductions at your puppy’s pace
•24/7 on-site staff – someone is always there if your puppy needs comfort at 2 AM
•In-house medical lab – immediate attention if anything seems off

For the Anxious Puppy Parent

We get it – leaving your puppy for the first time is stressful. For you and for them. That’s why we specialize in anxiety. We know how to read a nervous puppy, how to calm them, and how to turn a scary new place into a safe space. Your puppy is in the best hands in the Tri-State – literally. Three years running.
