Owner Worried About Sending Dog To Day Care—Unprepared for Pics She Receives

Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. A dog owner's nerves about their puppy's first day at day care quickly turned to delight, after receiving pictures that showed the canine having the time of his life—images that have since warmed the hearts of viewers on Reddit, too. The dog's owner, who goes by u/florawater on the platform, had shared the pet's joy on July 25 with a post titled, "Carl's first day at day care …" alongside a caption that read: "I've been so worried about sending him to day care but this way he gets access to the outdoors in the countryside (we live in an apartment in the city) and gets to hang out with other dogs." The post has since received more than 4,200 upvotes, leaving viewers both touched and delighted. Carl, a golden-retriever puppy, was pictured beaming with joy as he explored the countryside with other dogs from the day-care group. In one image, he is caught mid-run, clearly elated, with his ears flopping and mouth open in what appears to be a wide, toothy grin. In another, he stands on a grassy trail, surrounded by fellow pups, looking content and carefree. The post struck a chord with dog lovers on Reddit, many of whom could relate to the worry of sending a pet to day care for the first time—but also to the relief and joy of seeing them thrive in a social and stimulating environment. The photos not only eased the owner's initial concerns but also offered viewers a glimpse of Carl's personality shining through. "My dog is also a day care enjoyer," one viewer said. "When I pick him up, he has to say goodbye to his favorite staff members at least 3 times. "Last week one of them had to walk to the car with us (which was about 10 steps, but he planted his big butt and wouldn't move without an escort)." "I love seeing other pups who love day care," another added. "It looks like Carl loves day care," a third viewer said. "The face of someone who is having an absolute blast," one comment shared. "I like this day care," another added. "Carl is thriving at day care," one viewer commented. "It's great to see him enjoying it." "This cutie is also sending me," another posted. "That smile makes my day," a third added, referring to Carl's large grin in the pictures. "Carl looks like an extremely happy pup, thanks for sharing," one commenter said, in much agreement.
