A Dog's Day at the Farm
Paddock walks, breakfast, enrichment activities and dinner.
It's a 7am to 7pm dog day with 24/7 onsite staff and 24/7 CCTV.
Our guests are woken (or ready and waiting) at 7am for a leisurely walk and exploration in the large paddock. Meanwhile team members are busy freshening up their kennel and preparing their breakfast. Once back in their kennel, breakfast is served and they are moved into their day side where they have a view of the farm forecourt to watch the day’s activities unfold.
Later in the day they’ll have some fun in the smaller paddock with enrichment activities such as the seesaw, running through tunnels, playing fetch or simply enjoying some cuddles with one of the team. If the weather doesn’t allow for outdoor fun, one of the team will spend some dedicated time with each resident in their kennel, unless they’ve expressed an interest to be left in peace!
As evening draws in, there will be another walk in the paddock followed by dinner served in their day side, before guests are moved to their night side at around 6pm for a cosy night’s rest. Final checks are carried out between 6pm and 7pm and as well as 24/7 onsite staff, remote senior staff also have 24/7 access to our CCTV
Accommodation
Our canine guests enjoy a double-sided kennel that provides plenty of natural light and fresh air during the day, along with a view of the farm forecourt for our more curious residents. This design also allows our team to keep a constant eye on each kennel throughout the day. To help soothe any anxious guests, we play calming music to create a peaceful atmosphere.
In the evening, residents are moved to their cosy nighttime area, complete with their bed, blankets, and a heat lamp for chillier nights, ensuring they can snuggle in and enjoy a restful sleep.
Whilst we provide beds, bedding and toys you are more than welcome to bring any home comforts along too.
Nourishing Meals for Happy dogs
Nestled in our peaceful farm setting, we believe that mealtime is an essential part of your dog’s comfort and happiness. That’s why we provide high-quality, nutritious food to keep them feeling their best during their stay.
Mealtimes & Fresh Water
Our guests enjoy two delicious meals a day – breakfast after their morning walk, and dinner served early evening. Fresh water is always available, both in the day and night areas of their kennel or pen. We also provide tasty treats throughout the day, so please let us know if your pet has any allergies or sensitivities.
Bringing Their Own Food
We understand that some dogs feel more at ease with their usual diet. If you'd like to bring your own food, we're more than happy to accommodate this. While there is no price adjustment for bringing your own food, please know that our team takes great care in ensuring every guest’s mealtime is carefully managed. Providing multiple meal plans requires additional preparation, but we’re always committed to making sure each pet receives the care and attention they need.
A dogs dinner
We provide Arkwright’s Grain-Free Kibble by Gilbertson & Page Ltd, paired with Nature’s Menu raw meat (chicken, turkey, chicken & lamb, or beef). We also offer Bakers Small Biscuit dry kibble and Butcher’s tinned meat if preferred.
Tailored to Their Needs
If a guest isn’t showing interest in their meals, we’ll do our best to tempt them with alternatives like cooked chicken, vegetables, or rice. That’s why it’s important for us to be aware of any allergies or dietary restrictions. If a pet continues to refuse food, we’ll contact you or your emergency contact to discuss the best approach.
Health & Well-being
If we have any concerns about your pet’s appetite or notice a reaction to food, we will contact you immediately via phone or email. Should the issue persist for more than 24 hours, we will seek expert advice from our trusted partners at Anwell Veterinary Centre to ensure your pet’s well-being.
Your pet’s happiness and health are our top priorities, and we take every step to make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for throughout their stay.
