All our kennels are newly built, self contained and constructed mainly of insulating blocks, built to the highest standards and all comply over and above current model licensing conditions.
All our kennels are licensed regularly and inspected. Each kennel has 2 heaters which control the temperature in the day and also during the night. We maintain a very high standard of cleanliness and hygiene and recommendations are strictly adhered to.

We have out of hours care onsite during the day and the evening when the kennels is closed. The whole farm yards, including the kennels, has 24 hour CCTV, which can accessed and checked at any time.
