They know how difficult it can be to find holiday accommodation which offers quality and comfort for both you and your dogs, especially if you have more than one or two, or they don’t fit the small category! Their own pack currently consists of three Lurchers and five Deerhounds, so they definitely understand dog owners’ needs!
