THE CARERS

All carers have been thoroughly interviewed, their homes and gardens inspected and references checked. Each will have had experience with similar animals. Each is under contract to Dan & Co. and is directly responsible to the club. Regular contact is maintained with all carers and standards of care are monitored.

THE CARING

Much emphasis is placed upon the needs of the individual dog. Carers will endeavour to follow as closely as possible the normal routine of the dog. We ask you to complete a detailed questionnaire that gives us all the information that we need to care for your pet. You will also need to supply your dog’s usual bed and all food and medication necessary for the duration of the stay. Carers are required to be at home for most of the time that your dog is with them, and to follow your instructions for feeding, walking and medication. For everyone’s safety and security, dogs have to be kept on a lead during walks.

 

SICK ANIMALS

If your dog becomes ill or suffers an injury while he is in our care, he will be taken to a vet. Whenever possible, this will be the vet whom he normally visits and with whom he is registered. We will do our best to contact you and to keep your informed.

UNMANAGEABLE ANIMALS

If your dog proves impossible for the carer to look after in their home (for example if he chews the furniture or barks all night causing the neighbours to complain), he will be transferred to a reputable local kennel. This is a rare occurrence, but if it does happen, you will be charged a transfer fee of £15-00 and you will be liable for all of the fees of the establishment to which the animal is transferred.
