Happy Paws Home Boarding is based in Bredon, near Tewkesbury and provides home from home boarding for small to medium sized dogs.Licenced by Wychavon (Licence Number: 18/05990/ANIACT - Mrs Marian Elaine Wilson) and fully insured.
BOOKINGS NOW BEING TAKEN FOR 2021! If you have plans to go away, and you are seeking a local licensed and insured, safe and secure ‘home from home’ for your dog during this time take a look at what we can offer your dog at Happy Paws Home Boarding. My name is Marian Wilson and I have lived in Bredon now for over 7 years. We had a cocker spaniel, who we sadly lost to old age a few years ago, and during his time with us we felt strongly about not boarding him in kennels. He enjoyed human companionship and home comforts too much to be happy in a kennel for days or weeks at a time. Since then I have looked after much loved dogs belonging to friends and family and have given their owners peace of mind knowing that whilst they are away their dog is enjoying his or her holiday just as much as they are! In April 2017 I took this to the next level and became licenced as a home boarder and started Happy Paws Home Boarding. I have a genuine passion for dogs, having enjoyed dog grooming as a hobby, training my dog to Gold Good Citizen level, a limited experience of dog agility (my dog wasn’t really built for speed!), and attended dog behaviour seminars. At Happy Paws Home Boarding we only board one dog at any time, which I believe is a unique service locally. We pride ourselves in offering care to suit a dog's individual needs. We will keep to their usual routine, going on beautiful village strolls or countryside walks (depending on his/her ability), cuddles in front of the telly, offering your dog the prime spot in front of the woodburner on chilly evenings or paddling pool fun on hot afternoons, and we’ll even let him/her lick out a yogurt pot if that’s what they enjoy at home. At Happy Paws Home Boarding we believe it’s not just about boarding – dogs deserve a happy holiday too. |
Your dog's safety...
Your dog's safety during his/her stay at Happy Paws Home Boarding is paramount.
Our house has been inspected and approved for home boarding by Wychavon Council.
The garden has a six foot fence around the perimeter so is completely secure, and we also have a side gate which is bolted at all times.
During his/her time with us your dog will wear a Happy Paws Home Boarding ID tag detailing our contact details. We do not exercise any boarding dogs off lead (unless we have written permission from the owner to do so), but the ID tag is to give you and us peace of mind in the unlikely event of your dog's lead snapping or harness failing whilst out on a walk.
In line with the Boarding Establishment License all dogs who come to stay with us must have up to date vaccinations, have been treated for fleas and worms, and be microchipped. As a rule we do not board dogs who have not been spayed or neutered, however exceptions may be made if the dog to be boarded is a puppy and is too young to have had this procedure. Please note that we DO NOT accept dogs who show signs of aggression to either humans or other dogs.
With regard to exercise, in the event of very hot weather we will only exercise your dog in the early morning and evening.
