We have three separate complexes
TOY DOGS
Creature Comforts caters to the special needs of toy dogs that are often overlooked by alot of commercial kennels, focusing on peaceful environment for stress free boarding. Here we think it is important to have the regular small dogs i.e Jack Russells, Foxies, Corgis etc separate from the toys. Toys can be delicate and have different needs to other small dogs.
SMALL DOGS
Our fun loving small dog complex means that your small dog can safely have fun without the worry of large dogs interfering with their play.
Our Small Dog Complex has been fully renovated in 2013. All units in the Small Dogs Complex are completely inside, fully insulated and heated in the winter. Air conditioned in the summer. The building is sound proofed so dogs staying in this building will not be disturbed by outside noises i.e thunder or rain.
Medium – Large Dogs
Even though it is one complex we have a few difference social groups here.
They range from Ladies In Lavender (older quiet dogs who want to lay around and watch the world go by) to the total delinquent (dogs who come to have as much fun as they can fit into a day). We also cater for the dog who might not have good social skills with other dogs.
All dogs are housed individually unless they come in with their doggie brother or sister. Our dog units are very large and roomy. Our dogs sleep on hammock type beds and also have drybed (synthetic sheepskin) on their beds at night in the winter months. Smaller dogs can also have round plush beds to snuggle into. All units are draft free at night so the dogs are nice and warm.
Our doggie friends get up to 7 hours per day of outside supervised playtime. If your dog is social then we will find a couple of friends that your dog will have fun with. Our aim is to make every dogs stay a safe, enjoyable and comfortable one.
Diet/food Requirements
We try to cater as closely to the home diet as possible. We have a large range of dry food. Our main dry foods are Blackhawk, Royal Canin, Orijen/Acana, Hills Science Diet, Purina One and Pedigree. We also have single sachets/tins, dog roll, chicken frames and chicken necks.
Raw and Cooked Diets – We are happy to feed raw and cooked diets but dogs are required to bring their own food. If your dog is fed on a cooked or raw diet we prefer that you make up enough pre-packaged meals to last your pets stay. We have plenty of fridge and freezer space for Raw or cooked diets
If your dog is on a prescription diet you will also need to provide this.
If your dog is on a brand of food that we don’t normally have please inform us before your stay.
ALL PUPPIES UNDER 1 YEAR OLD MUST BRING OWN FOOD. ANY CHANGE OF DIET IN A PUPPY CAN CAUSE UPSET TUMMIES
Grooming
All dogs are bathed before going home. If you require a professional groomer we can arrange this (at your expense) We do however need plenty of notice to arrange this.
