I live on site and am hands on with all the dogs, I open up
their hatches each day at 8 am and they have free access all day until I put each one to bed with a biscuit and a cuddle in
the evening. Breakfast at 9am During the morning- A play and romp in one of the two large grass paddocks. Tea between 2 and 3 pm, Chill
in the evening before bed , there are three heaters in each block,on in the winter at no extra cost, so all
the dogs are kept warm. All the staff regularly pass through
the kennels to speak to each dog, check their water, and clean up in the runs.
EXERCISE
The paddocks are secure with 6 foot fencing, the dogs aren't left alone in there , but are supervised by a member
of staff, who clean up straight away so the area stays clean. There are plenty of toys to entertain the dogs and the staff
platy with them so they have plenty of exercise.
If you feel you would like to go out for more than one exercise a day
this can be arranged.
All dogs get one good exercise included in the boarding fee.
ONE extra 'out'
is charged at £4-00 per kennel, TWO extra 'outs' would cost £6-00 in total .
These can be arranged daily, weekly or however you wish., please discuss
with us when booking or bringing your dog in.

All the dogs get plenty of attention during the day.
We provide a variety of foodsor can feed your own if you choose.
I am sure many of you will view other kennels
before coming to view us,
here are some things to consider and questions to ask-
Security
of the paddocks.
Do the hatches come down at night- are they on a pulley
Are all the hatches large enough for your
dog to fit through
What type of heating is there- if under floor , how much of the floor is heated (it may be only an
A4 square in the corner!)
How many kennels are there.
How many staff are there
How many times do they go out-
do the maths in your head - is it possible
How long is a walk- it could be very short , just long enough to pee.
If
there are vacancies in the busy times - ask why
Are the kennels opposite each other - this can intimidate a nervous dog
Listen when you pull up - How much barking is there
Where is the isolation unit for a sick dog to go - is it a distance
from the kennel block
Is there plenty of natural light in the kennels
Is there air circulation, how cool do they
feel.
Are the runs covered
