Oscar has arrived for his trial night, after trying to persuade his owner he was too afraid to walk on our tiles (and realising his pleas weren’t working) he’s now quite happy exploring and snuggling!

I feel the need to post this as another warning to owners, apologies for the long post! Licensed boarders have to jump through hoops to obtain their licence from the council, there are many boxes we have to tick including having risk assessments in place, no children under the age of 5 living in our homes, specific cleaning routines and products, correct separation of dogs, I could go on. So when I see people offering boarding in local community groups who clearly don’t have a licence it causes me serious concern. I have heard of many horror stories from unlicensed boarding gone wrong! The first thing you should ever do when considering a boarder (this includes daycare and overnight) is to request to see their licence! If you have any queries you can contact the relevant council for confirmation. Next, a licensed boarder will ALWAYS request a meet and greet as part of our licensing conditions, this is non negotiable. You will also be required to provide evidence of vaccinations including kennel cough. If any of this is not discussed then alarm bells should be ringing!
