Boarding

Boarding - is like being on holiday away from the stress of everyday life. Time to relax and maybe make new friends.

Please note.

The first few times your dog/dogs comes to us, it is important you bring it/them in during our morning opening times

9 to 10am Mon. Tue. Thurs. Fri and Sat. as this helps them to settle better.

As we are only open in the afternoon on a Wed and Sun in the summer months we will not receive new intakes on these days. In the winter we are not open on a Wednesday.

Coming to us in the morning will help your dog/dogs to get used to us and us it/them and help it/them to settle before going to sleep at night. Thank you.

What to pack

. Please feel free to bring along your dog's favourite blanket

(not to thick please) and maybe some toys (no squeaky ones please)

& treats or something of yours (a tee shirt or slipper) to make

your dog feel at home straight away.

. If a dog has not been to stay with us before, please bring it

in between 9 and 10am.

This gives it time to get used to us during the day before going to bed.

Opening times

Your dogs day

Food - We like to keep things as close to your pet's home routine as possible, so there are options for breakfast, lunch and dinnertime meals.

That's why we ask you to bring your dogs food so they are happy with eating what they are fond of.

Drink - Bowls are refreshed throughout the day, so your dog always has access to fresh water.

Exercise and play - We have 4 large grass paddocks which we use to play with our guests. One to one as we feel this is best so the old and young dogs get a different level of play and even the shy or anxious dogs get the attention they deserve. Dogs in the same family get to play together if that's what they want.. Free-running exercise and one to one playtime in our grass paddocks in the morning, afternoon and evening, with a good helping of fuss and attention included!

Making things a bit more homely - The radio is left on for our guests, as recommended by animal behaviourists to provide comfort and a reminder of home. During warm weather, your pet will have access to their own private run, so they can choose to snooze in the inside/outside covered area or recline in the shade of their bedroom if they prefer. They will have fans or air con in the summer and heating in the winter. Providing your dog is not on any special diet, we like to give our guests a little night time treat just before bedtime
