Wilfred is our newest, smallest and youngest day-tripper. As he’s so young he has a crate set up for him and gets regular playtime and toilet breaks. When he’s a little older he can be introduced to some of the ‘big kids’ and start having more time out with them. Whatever age or size dog you have we make sure we cater from them as individuals so they have the best time with us. 🥰

Today we welcomed back our 4 legged friends for 2025. The day was clouded with sadness as unfortunately one of our day trippers was missing.
Most of you will have met Bruce at daycare or training and if you didn’t see him you certainly would have heard him!
After a short illness Bruce gained his wings on 2nd January and will be missed by so many people who loved him dearly.
RIP Bruce we love you x 🌈

We are looking forward to welcoming our day trippers back on Monday. You can now book spaces via the website. Once you’ve registered and entered your details you can just go to book.
Our regulars don’t need to do this but for any extra days or one offs please use this option.
Currently we get bookings via text, email, instagram and Facebook messages as well as phone calls. This will help you to get booked in faster and give us more time to spend with the dogs instead of admin!
If you would like your dog to join in the fun you can also book your induction here.
🙏 Thank you to all our customers, 2 legged & 4, for all your support & for all the cards and gifts.
🤩 2025 will be our 13th year and while unlucky for some we have lots of exciting things happening!
🎁 Have a wonderful Christmas and a very Happy New Year.

Last of the Christmas baths today was Luna. She’s not a fan of being dried on the table so we have to be inventive!

Sorry Leia, but you can’t win them all! Bruce is the daycare king 👑 and sometimes you just have to let the house win!
