Thor had a fabulous day today with Karen and Richard and the resident girls. Karen really reassured me and sent me lots of photos keeping me upto date on his adventures. He was shattered when he came home. X

     

Laura

We can’t thank Karen & Richard enough for taking such good care of Frankie! Its was our first time leaving her with someone that wasn’t family and safe to say we needn’t have worried, shes been treated like one of the family and had wonderful adventures! For a nervous little dog like Frankie, I was worried about how she would cope with the change of routine but settled quickly and made good friends! She can’t wait for her next holiday at D&D! Thank you again ❤️

I would 100% recommend D&D Little Legs. Boicy, our very energetic 6 month old Patterdale cross has just stayed for two days and one night and we couldn’t be happier with the care he received. We visited before the stay and could tell straight away that Karen and Richard would provide Boicy with a home from home. While Boicy was there, we were kept up to date with how he was doing and regularly sent photographs. He was taken out to a play park and on some lovely walks. Karen and Richard weren’t at all phased by the challenges an energetic puppy brings with him and Boicy was happy and settled when we collected him. He would love to stay again! 🐾

     

Leanne

I can't recommend Karen and Richard enough. I hate leaving Big Steve with anyone but after a couple of settle in days he was so happy to be there and loves Karen! I got lots of updates, pictures and videos which I loved and really helped me settle my nerves (Steve couldn't care less 😂) Steve has had his own little holiday! I now send Big Steve to Karen and Richard with no worries, knowing he is well taken care of and is having the best time! 🐾
