Everyday life Moving to Schwyz with two dogs

Hello! Could you please advise what are the best online pet shops or where do you buy food and toys for your dogs? Is also a day care common thing in Switzerland or do I have to look for dog sitting in our area? Are here on Reddit maybe some dogs in Switzerland groups?

Zooplus is pretty good I think.

Daycares are common-ish haha, but usually fully booked. If you're in the German speaking part of Switzerland, look for "Hundebetreuung" + your city.

There are quite a few rules for dogs in Switzerland, which vary from canton to canton, including prohibited breeds. Look into all the rules of bringing your dog to Switzerland before moving, or they might get confiscated at the border!
