Good morning to our lovely Lough House customers.

We hope you are well prepared for the Festive Season and all that this entails in your household.
Are you on the Naughty or Nice list?? Nice we think 🤞🤞🤞😁

2024 has been full on crazy and crackers throughout. We have looked after so many wonderful dogs and we thank you for trusting us with their care. We really appreciate that you have chosen Lough House.

We had a tinge of sadness when we lost our boy Smudge in September. It was heart breaking for us as a family, and there is certainly a Smudge shaped void in our lives.
For any of you experiencing the same sense of loss we are sending you an extra big hug. It's tough that's for sure.
We still have Smudge's cousin Ella and she is already sussing our her gifts under the tree.🤔

So on this Christmas Eve @ Lough House, the stockings are up and the gifts are ready. Just awaiting our last couple of boarders and then the merriment can begin (apart from Kevin with his man-flu!)

Wishing you the most wonderful Christmastime. Eat, drink and be Merry!!!
We look forward to seeing you all in 2025.

With kindest regards,
Louise & Kevin (and Lisa our superstar member of the team of course).

Morning Lough House followers.

Today we are in a rather subdued mood. We said goodbye to 'our Smudge' last night. All quite sudden, and as such we have woken this morning with a 'Smudge shaped void' in our lives.
He truly was one in a million. I used to say he was the best boy dog on the planet, and to us - he was!
Ella is seemingly coping well, it's as if she knows it was the right time to let her cousin cross over the bridge.
So if we're just a little bit less 'Kevin & Louise' when you see us or speak with us, please bear with it. It's going to take a little bit of time to adjust without our Smudge doodles.
Sleep tight our gorgeous boy. We hope your magic carpet ride took you sailing over the bridge.
With our love forever,
Mum, Dad & Ryan (and Elles belles of course).

Good morning to our lovely Lough House customers.
It's much brighter outside which is a relief to us all.

Today is our anniversary! 11 years today we moved into Lough House Boarding Kennels, and what an 11 years we've had!

We've have the privilege of looking after so many fabulous pooches. We have had some highs and lows ( more highs than lows - and we'd rather not remember the pandemic).

Everyday is a new adventure in some shape or form.

We would like to thank our customers, past and present, for your support. Thank you for trusting us to care for that very important fur-legged companion of yours. It has been our pleasure, and we look forward to future adventures.

With much love,
Louise and Kevin x

Dear Lough House customers,
We appear to have an annoying 'gremlin' on our telephone line! It is fairly frustrating as there is a constant buzzing noise on the line. This has been reported so let's hope the lovely engineers @ BT will eliminate the gremlin asap. In the meantime please bear with us if we are repeating things on the telephone :)
Kind regards,
Louise & Kevin

Good morning folks! Happy Sunday.
Just a heads up to you all.

Another local kennel has just announced it is closing, and it's pretty quick to be honest!

Whilst space was limited last year this will have a huge impact on the remaining kennels.
Customers who will have made bookings with this kennel are ringing around desperate to find an alternative kennel provision.

So with in mind please do not delay in booking any dates for your fur-legged pooch.

However please be patient if you contact us over the next few days. I have just been discharged from hospital after an emergency admission and poor Kevin has been holding the Fort! So it's a balancing act of catching up whist catching my breath and gaining full strength.

With much love,
Louise and Kevin x

Well that's January done!

Fortunately we had our family break so had some lovely sunshine, along with 2 cyclones!! Kevin also had a fair amount of rum 🤣

It's now back to the good old Cumbrian weather. As always the holiday ads have been a plenty, and people are planning for sunny, summer vacations.

The bookings have been coming in thick and fast whilst we've been away, and we're working our way through them still. It does like it's going to be another crackers year.

So if you plans already and have yet to book your fur-legged pooch into a kennel DO NOT delay.

For those of our lovely customers who have contacted us already, panic not! Your bookings are here, we will be contacting you this week.

Much love to you all,
Louise and Kevin x

Wishing all of our lovely customers and fur legged companions a very Happy New Year.

May you have good health and happiness.

Here's to 2024. Let's hope the Cumbrian weather is much kinder this year!

Best wishes,
Louise and Kevin xx

Good morning Lough House lovelies. It's that time of year again and we cannot truly believe how quickly this year has gone.
It has been full on crackers! We have met lots of new pooches as well as caring for our regular guests. It has been our pleasure to look after your pooches and we hope to welcome them back to stay again in the not too distant future.

With this business comes the inevitable losses of loveable fur-legged friends. It is always hard when we receive calls of losses, they leave a huge void our hearts as well as yours. We are sending our love to those customers who may be having their first Christmas without their loyal companion.

We hope that whatever your plans, you all have a fantastic festive season. Whilst many businesses have wrapped up for the Christmas period, one of our busiest seasons has now kicked in. So I will do my very best to keep Kevin topped up with Christmas delights, saving the odd tipple until after the pooches have been fed, watered and had their playtimes. (ooh and had their Christmas stockings from us).

Thank you all once again, your continued support is very much appreciated.
Sending you all much love and best wishes.
Louise & Kevin xx
