What
dogs will you look after?
We
will take care of any breed of dog, small or large, as long as they are sociable with other dogs and humans, well balanced
and not boisterous.
We cannot take any un-neutered male dog over the age of 8 months.
Can I come for a home visit first, to see what your home is like and where my dog/s will stay?
Yes
- of course. We actually insist on this prior to taking a booking, as we get to meet your dog and they get
to meet us too.Please phone to arrange a visit, to make sure we are not out walking our dogs or we have other visits arranged.
What will I need to bring with
my dogs when staying with you -The list looks long, but it's quite simple really.
1. We need your
dogs inoculation certificate (if you have one). We will take a copy of this and keep it on the dogs file. We always recommend
you have your dog/s inoculated. However we do understand that some vets will not inoculate dog/s over a certain age or due
to certain illness', in these instances the owner must be aware that not having they're dog/s inoculated is entirely
at the owners risk and we cannot be held responsible for any illness’ the dog/s may contract whilst in our care due
to them not being inoculated.
2. Your dog/s own food
- as this wont upset they’re tummy. However we can supply our own food (@ £1.00
per meal). (BURNS DOG FOOD)
3. You can also bring they’re
bedding and/or toy if you think it would make them more comfortable, again we have plenty of these so that if
any bedding gets dirty or wet it will be washed and the dog given new. (at no extra charge)
4. Any medication your dog/s
may require. Inc. ear/eye drops, tablets, medicine.
5. A properly fitting collar . If we find the collar is not fitted
properly and will slip over the dogs head easily we will use one of our own alternatives so as to keep your dog safe.
How often will my dog be taken for a walk?
Twice a day - AM and PM.
How often will you feed my dog?
As often as you feed them. We try and keep to they’re own routine as much as possible.
Will my dog have company at all times?
Yes - There will be someone with your dog at all times.
Can you still look after my dog
if he/she is not toilet trained?
Yes, of course we
can - We have plenty of training pads we can use on the floors.
Will they have access to garden as well as the house?
Yes - A door will be open all day come rain or shine, but closed at night.
Where will my dog stay whilst with you?
In our home at all times (unless we are out on a walk with them of course).
Where will my dog sleep at night
whilst with you?
Wherever they are used to sleeping
at home. We try and do the same in our house. (eg. In the bedroom, in the lounge - ect. However we DO NOT allow dogs to sleep
on our beds.
What
if I am late picking up my dog?
Don’t worry,
we understand things don’t always go to plan. All we ask is that you to let us know what is happenning, as we do have
to take other dogs for walks and give them their food.
What if my dog is on medication?
Don’t worry, we can give medication to your dog whenever it is needed. This includes ear/eye
drops, tablets, medicine. These must be supplied by the owner or vet.
Can you collect my dog from my home and bring them back?
Yes - We can arrange this, please phone for details and cost.
What if my dog/s became unwell whilst
staying with you?
We will try our best to get hold
of the owner / owner’ representative and ask what they would like us to do, and your dog can either be collected or
we can arrange for veterinary care (at owners cost). If on the other hand it is an emergency (in our opinion), we will
take the dog to the dog' vet as soon as possible and any costs incurred will be met by the owner entirely
on their return. WITH THE EXCEPTION OF - the dog' usual vet is not local to us, then we will take the dog to our
vet (Shepherd -Brackla) instead.
You
are called DOGGIE DAYCARE - do you only take care of them in the day?
NO - we can take care of your dog from a few hours a day to 6 weeks or more if needed, and this
includes overnight too.
