โ ๏ธ ๐ชฑ๐ฆIMPORTANT REMINDER TO CUSTOMERS โ ๏ธ๐ชฑ๐ฆ
Thankfully, due to our strict procedures, policies and daily cleaning regimes we have never had a case of fleas, worms or any other parasite here at YAPPY TAILS but I just wanted to remind our customers to keep on top of their dogs Flea and Wormer treatments.
We cannot accept dogs for walks or Home Boarding that are showing any signs of fleas, mites, worms or other parasites for the protection of our own dogs, other home boarders and our business.
Please ensure your dogs are up to date with and receive their regular Flea, Parasite and Wormer treatments as per dosage requirements.
It's important you do not miss any treatments to best avoid the chance of infestation.
We are trained and more than happy to administer Flea and Wormer treatments to your dogs should it become due during their stay with us.
Thank you ๐ ๐พ

๐๐๐ถ๐จ Truly wind swept! ๐ Imagine brushing the knots out of this fur ๐
These pups definitely got windswept on their walk at Criccieth in Gwynedd
Our longest stayer at the Boston Kennels, Lexi wrote her letter to Santa Paws today. Lexi would like to find her forever home for Christmas.
Lexi is a 5 year old female and has been over looked for 5 months and we would love for her to find a home for the big day. Lexi walks well on the lead, eats well, gets on with other greyhounds and enjoys snuggles with her humans, alongside playing with her toys.
She really is such a good girl and keeps getting over looked. Sheโs only a small girl and would look fab sat next to a Christmas Tree.
If you can offer Lexi a home, please contact Kevin on 07941 313 025. Please share far and wide โค๏ธ
Another pampered pooch at YAPPY TAILS ! โค๏ธ
DJ & Donny are always so hospitable & good at sharing their home with our house guests, but by the look on DJ's face, sharing her Sweet William mug is maybe a step too far! ๐ ๐ฌ

At YAPPY TAILS we encourage the pups to keep up to date with current affairs, but it appears they are only interested in learning about one thing...FOOD! ๐๐๐ฅฉ

We spend so much time looking after our fur-babies and doing all we can to ensure they are the healthiest they can be ๐ถ...but it is also important to look after ourselves, afterall, we want to be around for them as long as possible!
October is National Breast Cancer Awareness month ...so get your mammograms booked and get those puppies checked... early detection is crucial ๐ ๐ถ

A BIT ABOUT THE LEADER OF THE PACK....
My name is Diana. I live with my partner Julian, our 5 year old Golden Labrador DJ and our 3 year old Black Labrador X Retriever Donny.
I grew up with dogs and they have always had a special place in my heart.
It was my love of dogs that led me to become an approved puppy socialiser and foster carer for Medical Detection Dogs (MDD), a charity that trains specialist dogs to detect the odour of human diseases and life-threatening medical conditions. I take care of these amazing dogs in my own home where my job is to help socialise and train them to a set standard. Once approved, these qualified dogs will be carefully matched and partnered with a client who has a life-threatening illness. Donny started his life training to be a Medical Alert Dog, and we adopted him in 2018!
I am qualified in Canine First Aid, Canine Behaviour and Puppy Training. We are DBS verified and fully insured, so you can feel confident that your pet is in good hands.
We welcome friendly, well socialised dogs of all ages to join the Yappy Tails pack where they are sure to get all the fuss, attention and love they deserve!
