About dog walks/playtime with staff

Dog Walks at the Boarding Kennels

We provide toys and balls for your dogs to play with during their exercise times.

During the summer we have a hard shell paddling pool which we encourage them to use by placing balls and toys in it for the dogs to play with.

We let the dogs decide on the type of exercise they want whether its a sniff and wander or a bit of ruff play, to a good chase around.

Items brought from home help your dog to relax quicker, because these items are familiar to them.

Beds and Toys are sometimes chewed so please don`t bring anything special that you would be upset if it was damaged.

We have a variety of beds available from raised hamock style beds to padded mattresses.

We also use D.A.P Diffusers and spray if needed to help your dog relax.

Comfort items We're proud to say we DO offer to feed your dog the same diet as at home.
We understand how important it is to help your dog settle in quickly and easily without any digestive problems that would be caused with a change of diet.

Will feed natural/organic diets:


Caring for Dogs

Care of Easy-going & Steady Dogs

Our Kennel building is split up into 3 different areas. This helps keep the noise and disturbance to the dogs down.

The sleep areas have a solid partition so your dog can relax and sleep without being looked upon by other dogs.

The dogs enjoy lazing outside in their outside runs which are large and spacious.


Care of Active Dogs

Since we opened in 2006 we have increased the times we exercise the dogs.

When we first opened they were let out of the kennel three times  a day, now we have increased it to 4 times a day. We have noticed that they are much happier and are ready to settle for a rest after a good play.

Our dogs are taken out for an individual walk along the golf course/ disused railway enbankment that runs past the kennels, extra time is given to dogs who need a longer walk.

We also allow them an individual free playtime with a member of staff. Where they can chase balls/ frisbees etc.

Plus 2 other exercise periods.

We use kongs stuffed with food and treats to keep the dogs happy during the day.

Everyday the dogs also get enrichment time, using Puzzle games and Lickimats etc. 


Care of Daycare/creche Dogs

Not at the moment due to the restrictions of Covid 19

Services

At the Rhyddings your dog is our number one priority.

We offer a free Trial morning to our new customers.  This is especially useful for first time boarders. We like the dogs to come in for a morning so we can introduce the kennel routine and staff to your dog.

Most importantly they know you are coming back for them.

We find this helps the dog to settle better when you leave them for your holiday because they do not worry that they have been left.

We don`t make a charge for this as we feel the benefits to you and your dog are priceless!!!

Becca and Kate our Qualified groomers offer a full groom or just a bath and a brushout.

We look for the best canine products around and primarily focus on natural and healthy dog  food. Providing advice and information to our customers on what is best for their  companion, we have a large growing following of loyal customers who only want the best for their pets.

We stock and sell Natural Instinct, Orijen and Acana plus other raw meats and bones.

We also have Natural treats which are 100% Natural with no added chemicals or colours.
