Dog Boarding Kennels

The kennels and cattery where established in the early 1960s by the previous owner who, in their own right, had built and refined the kenneling process. On taking over in 1994 it gave me the opportunity to implement many of my own ideas as well as the more modern approach to kenneling.

We offer two types of kenneling, namely luxury and standard kennels. The luxury kennels are climate controlled and have music playing throughout the day which has a very calming effect on the pampered pooches. The dogs bedding is lifted off the floor with wooden beds in order to insulate the dogs from the cement floors. These kennels are washed by hand twice daily.

The standard kennels are designed in the same manner with one third indoors and two thirds outdoors so that the dogs can come and go as they please.

We boast 10 large grassy exercise runs into which the dogs get taken out two to three times daily. This gives us the opportunity to play with the dogs and get to know them on a more personal level. Often the older quieter visitors prefer to have a lie in the sun at which point we offer a tummy tickling service or a relaxing ear rub.

All the staff are trained to do visual and physical assessments of the dogs during the handling processes. This provides the opportunity to pick up on any underlying conditions and taking the correct steps timeously.

Twice daily the kennels are washed out, water replaced, bedding cleaned and beds made. Kennels are disinfected after every visit.

The dogs are dipped routinely in order to prevent the infestation of parasites.

Our menu consists of a premium vet recommended dry food as well as a boiled minced chicken for the fussier pallet. You are most welcome to provide your own cuisine.

Cattery:

Our cattery is far removed for the dog kennels, thereby giving the kitties the peace and quiet they so deserve and appreciate. Our cattery is set in an old stone building with lots of trees. Selected runs have trees growing in them into which the kitties can clamber and view their surrounds. All the runs have tree stumps to give a more natural feel.

The runs have a sheltered portion into which the kitty bedding is placed away from the elements. In winter the runs are heated with infra red lamps and are quite cosy. 

The cattery is cleaned twice daily with water being replaced and beds being made at the same time. We feed according to your requirements and our in-house menu offers a premium dry food. If you wish to supply your own cuisine we will be happy to accommodate you!
