Dog daycare ratings are based on which information?

• A. The dog's breed only
• B. The owner's income
• C. What the pet owner told about their dog, temperament during meet and greet, and behavior on the first day of daycare.
• D. The dog's color

Answer: (C)

Ratings reflect how the dog behaves in real situations and what the owner shares about them, not fixed traits. Staff gather information the owner provides about the dog’s typical temperament, energy, and any triggers, and they observe how the dog behaves during the meet-and-greet and on the first day at daycare. This combination helps assess compatibility with the daycare environment and safety for the dog and others. Breed, color, or the owner's income don’t predict day-to-day behavior, so they don’t influence ratings. In short, it’s owner-reported details plus observed temperament and behavior from initial interactions that determine the rating.
