************** IMPORTANT MESSAGE to our Clients ***************

We are experiencing a digital dark age!

Our internet has gone on an unscheduled vacation which means our phones are down too with no ETA from the service provider for a fix.

We apologise for the disruption to our usual service – we hope the “powers that be” find a solution to whatever problem they are having!

Thank you everyone for your patience and understanding ♥

Boarding Kennels ...
Am I right?! 😅
I am not entirely sure what has happened, though
Facebook has told me I haven't posted in 197 days! Where does the time even GO??
With the photo reel on my phone, ready to implode, I wanted to share some with you 🫶🐶🫶🐶
Over the last few months, our clients have been seeing some new faces around the place as we have been busy recruiting some wonderful new team members to join our family to care for yours 🐕🐱🐶🐱
I am hoping I will have more time to connect with you all in the near future! It would be truly wonderful to share with you - all of the heart-warming moments that we experience with your furbabies ever day 😍 We really do have the best job in the world!

Oh Boy! Have I just had the best week giving this girl a home away from home!
She has the kindest heart and real special vibe that you just cannot deny ✨️
No time spent with pooches is ever wasted ❤️❤️❤️

🐶🐕 Happy Thursday Everyone 🐕🐶
We have had such an amazing group of these Lil guys in and out over the last few weeks - our playgroups sure have been busy and puppers sleeping well at the end of the day 😇😴
This is the last year my son Maximus will be helping us during the school year as he starts full time in 2024 🤗 The dogs that visit us, who have kids at home - you can just see their excitement when they see him 😁 they love to have Max around and he is fantastic with the animals.
I can remember the days I had him tucked in the office at 2weeks old, whilst I went back to work with all your woofable doggies...
Where does the time go?!

🍪🍪 Meet Cookie 🍪🍪
I must say, it is so rewarding to see such a turn around in demeanour within the first few days of care. Cookie, and her family experienced a case of 'Admission Anxiety' which made winning Cookies ❤️ just that little more tricky. It just shows, that if you trust our process of how we perform our daily routine - we will be able to show just about any pooch a how to be comfortable in a home away from 🏡
When you feel the bond, it is hard to undo 🩷🌹🩷🌹🍪

When your Brother Steals the Limelight!
These two clowns have been an absolutely pleasure to get to know 🐾They couldn't be further apart in personality! They are both doing a fantastic job at supporting one another in their first stay 💜🐶 Ziggy and Bear make the daily blanket routine a bit of entertainment 😍 That's If I can get the new rugs onto the beds without a pooch underneath them! 💗🤪
It's been a great way to make them feel at home and build trust between friends 🤗

🐾🐾 Congratulations Tayiah 🐾🐾
This week we took on our first student in a number of years, for work placement from Manjimup High.
Tayiah displayed some skills with the animals that was exciting to see, her ability to remember who everyone was is something you just cannot train! Under the supervision of Daniel, we were delighted to sign off her workbook and write a recommendation 🙌👌
Great job with attention to detail whist training new staff Daniel, and we hope to see you in the future Tayiah!

🐾🐾 Welcome Miss Pepper 🐾🐾
This week Maximus and Freyja have been busy helping me welcome our new arrivals!
We welcomed Pepper 🌶 Had a play with FreyFrey, picked her pyjamas, made her bed and just hung out for a while with lots of pats n cuddles ❤️
Has been lovely getting to know Peps and making our home, hers too!

Gracing your screens tonight is Kenobi 😍 We are all diggin' his energy and playful quirks 🐕🥎🥏🪅 Jumpin' in on Harry and Kenobi's playdate, I got so many awesome pics for his mummy 🐾🐾

🙈🙉🙊 When Luna met Karma 🙊🙉🙈
Sparks just flew! Like all playdates, the pooches walked together to the pavillion run and are then supervised by two staff members to make sure we have a compatible match 🙌 Once we are confident they can be left alone, we will continue with our duties 😁
As for these two first time kiddos, they just LOVED a good Ruff Play!

🌟The Beautiful N Entertaining Hazel 🌟
80 photos and almost every single one was blurry 😅
Dog Photography is tricky... but it's the best part of my job! Hopefully the next round I'll be more successful 🙏

🐕🐶 Bring Your Dog To Work Day 🐶🐕
As we have a beautiful day today, I took the opportunity to bring 2 of our boys in for a bit of a spruce up before the holidays!
Dog Groomers are like Mechanics..
Your own dogs are always the last to be sorted 😅
They are Handsome if I do say so myself!

🐾🐾 Benji the Wonder Woof 🐾🐾
I have to be honest, This Lil guys owners asked me for photos a while ago. I took a heap of pics and I completely forgot to edit and send them, our offices have been so busy!.. I was going through my camera reel, and realised that I have made a huge boo-boo by forgetting.. and found this beauty!!
I feel 100% terrible, but also really excited about this stella Shot 📷

🐾🐱 Best thing about being shifted into Shannon's job on the desk is being able to spend time with our Feline Friends 🥰 I usually work directly with the dogs, and I do apologise for it being tricky to get through on the phones as we have been swamped with booking enquiries 📱 But moments like this, taking a lunchbreak to have Cuddle Time with this awesome cat TimTam - Makes my day - I just love cats 🐈

Showing off her little bath, blow dry and tidy up she had, such a cutie 💓 💕

🐕🐾 Schools Out! 🐾🐕
Once we get to know your little one, the best part of my days is selecting the playgroups. Some are bigger than others, depending on how they interact together.. The best part is, once you get it right ( and if they have eaten their breakfast like good little dawgs) they can stay out of their kennel unit all day 🏀🥏🧸🌅
Let the Playgroups Begin 🙌

😍🐾 Family Run Business 🐾😍
Most Saturdays, you may see two little humans exploring Julie's kennels..
Their favourite part of their weekends is visiting with the dogs, handing out treats and extra special cuddle times to the pooches who may miss their little families 😍
This is our son Maximus, he is 3 years old and just adores animals! He is very caring, enthusiastic and loves to talk to the dogs all afternoon if you let him! 🥰

Thankyou Rufus for keeping me company while I tested out my new phone!
This guy, totally full of awesomeness 👌

11/06/2022

Problem solved!

Little bit of sticky tape, a little bit of glue,
Our websites back up running, good as new 😆🥰

Now to go buy some more chew toys for the dogs......😁😜

Have a great weekend!

11/06/2022

OH NO! We've got a tech issue! Dog's have eaten our website! 😱😤

At least they didn't use out Online Booking Portal as a chew toy. Please visit this direct link to book online:

https://bookings.julieskennels.com.au/online_bookings/

The glue is out and we are furiously putting the pieces back together again. Hopefully it shouldn't take long before services are fully restored.

Thank you for your patience!

Have a great weekend!

🐕 Say Hi Snow! 🐕
We had a lovely afternoon with paygroup, welcoming our new friend Snow this week! Some of our usual suspects - Trooper, Sunny & Leo - who all know the ropes too well and little Miss Freýja who is my gorgeous pooch. New little girls like Snow on their first stay can be a bit unsure in the beginning, though so rewarding to see them blossom 🌹Playgroups and photo shoots are my most favourite part of this job 🥰🐾

24/04/2022

🐾🐾 We Love Playgroup 🐾🐾
So many social pooches and heaps of great photos its hard to choose just 10!

It is exciting to see the strides that Celebrity Pets Rescue Charitable Trust is making with rescuing and re-homing abandoned animals.

Well done CPR! Keep up the great work! 🥰🥰🐶🐱💕

What a wonderful "Pay It Forward" opportunity.

Late last year Laureta and Grace from the CommBank team Malaga visited us and presented Celebrity Pets Rescue with a very generous donation of $500.00 as part of their National Community donations program. We took a thank you photo posing with our then current Celebrities – all whom have now been adopted.

Since then, we have been deciding how best to use this wonderful and unexpected donation of funds. Rather than sink it quickly into vet bills – we have chosen to run a Sponsored Adoption Fee Program for 5 of our Celebrities who for one reason or other homes have not been so forthcoming.

So far, we have successfully placed 2 of our most vulnerable and long-standing cases by sponsoring each adoption fee for $100.00 allowing us to reduce the fees to cover their costs.

Rex – an older pooch, and Jax – who been in care for months – have both been adopted with the assistance of the $100.00 initiative!

2 other candidates have now received reductions to their campaigns - take a look!

Boodha: https://www.petrescue.com.au/listings/895246 ***ADOPTED***
and
Sven: https://www.petrescue.com.au/listings/894971

Who will be next??? Take a look at Pet Rescue https://www.petrescue.com.au/groups/10995 for current campaign or www.cprescue.org.au/dogs for up-and-coming Celebrities and find out!

Clarice – Neo Mastiff is a likely candidate! She is a lovely girl!

🐾 What a Week for JBK 🐾
I say week, but in truth it's been a pretty crazy month! We continue to be busy training new staff and meeting many more wonderful new clients! Though I am always taking the time to be 100% present with every task I have to do.
The best part of my job is making those connections with the animals, and providing a safe, warm - home away from home.
The days I get to spend with this guy, are truly some of the best 🥰
