A Safe Haven Designed For Reactive Dogs
Purpose Built Isolated Kennel for Reactive Dogs
To ensure total calm, safety, and individual focus, we cap our specialist reactive boarding at just one dog at any given time. Your dog will get their own private suite well away from any other dogs & our usual kennel block.
​
Expert Care by a Qualified Behaviourist
Your dog is in the hands of a qualified canine behaviourist and reactive specialist. We understand body language, triggers, and threshold management, ensuring every interaction is safe, calm, and positive.
​
Private Suites with Zero Triggers
Our dedicated reactive suite is completely separated from other dogs and noise. With no visual sightlines or passing dogs to worry about, your pet can truly relax and decompress in complete privacy.
​
1:1 Solo Walks & Dedicated Playtime
Every outdoor walk and play session is strictly one-on-one with their specialist handler in secure areas. No group play, no surprise dog encounters—just focused exercise, sniffaris, and mental enrichment tailored entirely to their comfort level.

Normal Kennels
My dog is fine in a normal kennel block and has stayed successfully in this situation before. No problem- they can stay in our normal kennel block at normal rates- as long as it does not cause theirselves or others to stress. As long as during the mandatory trial stay that it is stress free. Otherwise it may be recommended for them to stay in our reactive dog suite.
