Why we do them

Trial days help us understand whether daycare is the right fit. We look at confidence, travel comfort, sociability, play style, recovery and how your dog responds to the team.

Before the day

It starts with an enquiry and meet and greet. We talk through your dog, your area, their routine and whether collection or drop-off makes most sense.

After the trial

We will be honest. Some dogs are ready to join, some need a slower plan, and some may be better suited to another type of care.
