Is your Pooch going to Pawis this Summer?
When we get a typical Irish summer we all CRAVE getting out of Ireland and hitting
some luxurious beach, lets face it, we deserve it. However, for lots of us, leaving our
dog at a standard dog kennel can be a traumatic experience, for dog and human alike!
Many dogs get on very well at boarding kennels.
My recommendation is , if you need to use kennels, find a kennels that is run by
qualified staff ( minimum three month classroom based dog behaviour course, as
often online courses are of poor quality, and all staff on duty absolutely must have up
to date certification in dog first aid).
Send your dog for a trial day, where they can get to know staff and get to know the
environment.
Next, send your dog for one overnight stay. Judge your dogs reaction to arriving at the
centre – if they don’t want to go in, listen to them and try another kennels.
Make sure to do this months before your holiday so you can be sure to find a good
match before jetting out of Ireland – there is NOTHING worse than fretting about
your dog when you are supposed to be enjoying yourself.
Many indoor dogs just don’t settle at standard boarding kennels. The noise, the
concrete environment, and the lack of one-to-one human attention can often distress
dogs, especially older dogs that were not introduced to kennels before 1 year of age.
At Creedons Doggie Daycare we thought long and hard about what we would want
for OUR dogs, and decided to launch an alternative to kennels, our exclusive 5* pet
hotel in 2014.
We have six exclusive suites – each designed as indoor, individual chalet’s, with real
human beds, gentle canine-relaxation music piped in gently, central heating, wall art,
and, to keep you happy, we even have two-way camera’s where you can check in on
your pup from your phone – and even wish them a good night!
Our special guests get extra cuddles when staying at the hotel, are fed the best holistic
dog food, and even send their mums and dads a daily update to let them know how
their holiday is going.
Our suites are specially designed to meet every dogs need.
Our French themed Pawis suite is our biggest. It has a double bed to facilitate our ‘big
boned’ guests, or double bookings for dogs that join us from the same household.
The golden oldies suite has special orthopaedic, low to the ground bedding for our
senior guests who need that bit of extra joint support.
The nursery is perfect for the babies – we have a bassinette bed, giant teddies, and
baby toys.
We also have a Disney suite, a Bark-bados suite, and a Spa suite, the choice is yours!
