FAQs

What will my dog be feed?

Our kennel dogs are fed dry biscuits with raw chicken mince mixed in. If your dog is allergic to chicken, we also have beef mince or grain-free canned food.

What bedding do we use?

We use Kuranda bedding and framed shade cloth beds with linen supplied. These beds are ideal for giant breeds that don’t always fit on regular beds and for arthritic dogs that can’t jump.

Yes, if your dog is dog-friendly and you would like your dog to interact with other dogs of similar size and nature.

What is Kennel Cough?
Kennel or Canine Cough (Infectious Tracheobronchitis) is a common cold for dogs.  It is a contagious upper respiratory disease that is an airborne virus.  Symptoms can include a gagging cough, sneezing and nasal discharge.  These symptoms can last from a few days to a few weeks.  While canine cough is hard for the owners to live with and annoying for your dog it is not a serious disease,  though it can lower a dog’s immune system making it more susceptible to other infections.
Kennel cough does not originate from kennels but can be brought to the kennels by an infected dog.  As the virus is airborne, a dog could catch it in its backyard, walking, or at a dog park.  No amount of cleaning and disinfecting will prevent a dog from catching the virus.
Does my dog get a bath before they come home?
Yes, if their stay is 3 days or longer, in most cases, we will bath your dog.
Do you open Public Holidays?
With the exception of Easter and Christmas we open the afternoon of most Public Holidays.
Can we board our female dog if she is in heat?
No we are unable to accommodate them.
