A commonly asked question is, "Will our dogs get enough exercise?"

The answer is, "Yes!"

You can book a large kennel with it's own grass run.

Or, if you prefer "normal" boarding, dogs take turns of romping on the grass in the garden for exercise and to relieve themselves. Some dogs like to eat grass. Grass acts as roughage which helps to clean out their digestive tract.  There are trees for shelter from the sun.  The soil is soft and sandy for their digging pleasure. Dogs get several turns a day to roam in the garden, which breaks their day up and gives them a sense of excitement. If there happens to be two dogs that are compatible, they can play together. Aggressive dogs take turns.

As well as gardens for the dogs, they can also enjoy the freedom of a large playground where they can run, chase a ball, and horse around.

We worry about our dogs getting enough exercise - but are we ourselves getting enough? Or are we lazy? Running, or even just walking with a dog is a good way to get exercise. And lets not forget to exercise our minds and spirits too! Let's resolve to read a book this month, and to read the Bible for 5 minutes a day. (You can do anything for 5 minutes!) Start today!
