Here at Langcliffe we make every effort to ensure your dog has a safe and enjoyable stay. Leave them here, knowing they are well cared for, allowing you to enjoy yourself.
Our purpose built high quality dog kennels vary in size to accommodate all breeds of dogs large and small. It also enables families of dogs to be looked after together if required.
The kennels provide modern, clean and spacious accommodation.
Each kennel has both an inside area with a heater for those chilly evenings and an attached outside enclosed covered run, so your dogs will have all day access to both the cosy inside or fresh air and sunshine outside.
Freshly laundered bedding and beds are provided, but if you prefer to bring your pets own bedding we will be happy to make them comfortable.
Each dog staying with us has four walks/play sessions per day and more for puppies. For those to be walked on lead, we walk them using extendable leads, this gives them opportunity for a good stretch and run as well as a good sniff. In addition to the main field our new playing field and playpen offer great play places with balls and supervised play. We have extended the times out and about to ensure lots of personal contact time and socialisation opportunities. We start with the early morning walk /playtime, then the late morning walk/play time, then after the quiet/rest time between 12-3pm, the early afternoon walk/playtime then after tea the last walk/playtime for the day. The walks and playtime as well as providing lots of exercise give us opportunity to to get to know your dog and their individual ways to ensure they have a fun stay with us.
If your dog is well socialised and you are happy for your dog to be exercised off the lead we can accommodate this and let them have a good old romp around the field or in our playing field or playpen, the group walks and play sessions are great exercise and fun for those dogs that like to mix and play.
We also offer extra off site walks ‘Freedom Walks’ see Doggy Extras below!
As for food your dog will be spoilt for choice. We stock a number of the major brands and we will do our best to keep your pet on their regular diet, if we do not stock your particular food, then we’re happy for you to bring your own (price adjustments do not apply). If your dog has some special diet or medication requirements please bring these and we will be happy to administer these during their stay.
Your pet will be fed as required within the parameters of our day. Our a-la-carte menus and regular treats and drinks rounds offer enough to fill their bottomless bellies and get their tails wagging!
