Kennels

Scotsburn Kennels is a safe and pleasant boarding environment for your dogs. We do our best to make them feel part of our family whilst you are away.

THE KENNELS

The kennels are all heated, and every dog has access to it's own exercise run.  Dog beds and bedding are supplied, but you are most welcome to bring in your own. We have found over the years that a special blanket or toy from home may be comforting to some animals.

Our guests have the benefit of television and radio playing softly in the background - we have found this familiar sound helps them to settle in.

FEEDING

Mealtimes are served according to your specific feeding instructions. We recommend that you supply us with your dog’s own food in order to maintain their existing diet and routine.

Please make us aware of any food allergies or special instructions so that we can safely cater for your pet’s needs.

Our modern kitchen facilities allow meals to be prepared fresh and hygienically, with water being refreshed throughout the day.

WALKING

Our guests are walked twice a day along the forest tracks surrounding the croft. During this time the dogs can enjoy exploring the sights and sounds of nature. We walk each dog/family of dogs one at a time, to ensure we build trust and friendship through our contact with them.

KENNEL OPENING HOURS

We are open year round - daily between 8 and 10am and 4 and 6pm.

When booking, we will discuss and set a mutually convenient appointment with you in order to drop off and collect your pet. If your plans change last minute, all we ask is that you keep us informed.
