View Full Version : Dog Home Boarder Required

I'm looking for someone/company to home board our dog for 1 week whilst on our holidays.
We were going to put her into boarding kennels, however, she is far too attention spoilt for that and we fear she will hate us for it.

She is a 2 year old Staffordshire Bull Terrier and is very loving (as staffys usually are). We dont have any children but she is fine around friends children and my 6 month old nephew.

When it comes to other dogs she has never been a problem and when faced with another dog usually lays on her back with paws in the air (not sure reasoning for this).

Websites that I have looked at so far state that they dont board boisterous animals and I'm afraid that she can be this, in true staffy style.

Any help/comments/advice welcome :)

The lying on its back with feet in the air is a good thing. Its a sign of submission. Mine does it all the time and 2 dog trainers have complemented him on good doggy manners.

Mutlins book up months in advance so you may struggle. Ours are already booked in for July next year. Try Gillian at Furry Friends :)
