- Puppy daycare
We offer an unique chance for lonely pups to get out and meet new friends. Socialization is vital in a puppy’s development to help them become happy, well-adjusted adults. The daycare puppies are well-supervised and there are always plenty cuddles to spare for them. The daycare dogs play outside on the lawn, get lunch at 12:00 and naptime follows shortly after ensuring that your furry kids are getting a well-balanced day.
Unfortunately we can only accept puppies up to 6 months of age and all dogs must be vaccinated and dewormed.

Micro chipping
If you love your pets, get them microchipped! It is a form of permanent identification that cannot be removed or lost. Animals can be scanned at any vet practice or SPCA. Piece of mind is only an injection away. Please make sure when you do see a vet that your pet’s microchip is scanned to ensure that it is still working and registered.

Dental Health
Do not forget your dog's dental health! Prevention is better than cure therefore regular cleaning of your dog's teeth with our specialised cleaning equipment will prevent tooth decay and subsequent loss of teeth.
We stock a wide range of dental friendly treats, such as Greenies and Dental Chews. We also recommend feeding ostrich bones as they crumble and therefore won't pose a risk of damaging the intestines or breaking teeth!
