Day Care

Why leave your social dog at home feeling bored and isolated when your dog could be spending their day playing, exploring and resting with their friends.

Leafields Dog Retreat have five secure freedom paddocks and extensive garden enabling us to offer a managed and controlled environment with CCTV coverage & secured access. This enables us to ensure that your best freind(s) has as much space, freedom & attention & that there is never too many dogs in one space, with plenty of constant supervision & “love” from our qualified and caring team.

Dogs in our care enjoy a non kennel environment, with various heated rooms, providing all their usual comforts ie sofas, dog beds, TV, radio & plenty of love and affection within our home & grounds.

Do You Have a Puppy? 

Do you have a puppy you are worried about at home while you are at work or simply like a secure socialisation environment?

Leafields Retreat daycare offers the perfect environment for your puppy to grow and socialise. We know that it is critical that puppies are not over exercised and require stimulation with their own unique routines and we will work with you with your puppy’s needs in mind. Our on site groomer will also be on hand for puppy grooms.

The peace and quiet of the indoor areas give your puppy the chance to sleep and rest, and there are separate areas that we use to feed the puppies their lunch. This also serves as a valuable training tool, as we teach them to sit and wait respectfully, eager to please.

The pack acts as a natural extension of a litter and allows your puppy to socialise and interact with others, whilst learning from the older, well behaved dogs. We believe puppies that attend a day care from a young age grow up to become very social dogs.

Leafields can accept puppies as young as 12 weeks old, or once they are out of the vaccination period.
