Our passion for dogs extends to caring for yours as well. We provide accommodation for all of our guests within our home. We do not have kennels therefore
all dogs must be well-socialised and well-behaved as well as being neutered/spayed (unless young pups) and fully vaccinated.
We can’t accommodate dogs with separation anxiety so if your dog usually sleeps with you and would not be happy staying in our kitchen/family room then we cannot accommodate them.
We have had owners who have expected their dogs to just adapt and then gone on to bark and whine all night which is upsetting for the dogs and disruptive to us.
For obvious reasons, we will not under any circumstances accept dogs with any history of aggression towards other dogs ie, resource guarding, food aggression or reactivity on or off lead to dogs or people.
Life is much less stressful when our guests are well-behaved and calm indoors too. We allow dogs on the sofas - we enjoy the cuddles too - but we don’t expect dogs to run in and jump all over the furniture whilst trying to kill the cushions!!
We love our daily walks on the beach and so do our four-legged guests. As well as being a safety risk, there is nothing more stressful than an off-lead dog with little to no recall and nothing more uncomfortable than being dragged along by a dog that doesn’t walk nicely on the lead. Therefore we need dogs to have good recall or walk nicely on the lead but both would be amazing.
If you have read the above you are not quite sure if your dog fits with our criteria please feel free to get in touch for a chat. Your dog may well be more suited to kennels and we can personally recommend excellent kennels in East Lothian
