Highlighting the importance or ensuring you check your home boarders licence…….
It is with great sadness that I share this information. This death could have been avoided. One family no longer has their beloved dog due to using an unlicenced home boarder.
(Copied from another group, just so sad 😞)
This weekend a heartbreaking incident saw a dog lose its life from heat stroke whilst in the care of an unlicensed home boarder. 💔
The boarder lied and said they were licensed 🤬🤬🤬
It’s a devastating reminder of why choosing a LICENSED home boarding service matters so much.
Licensed boarders are required to:
✔️ Have inspections carried out
✔️ Complete risk assessments
✔️ Meet animal welfare standards
✔️ Hold appropriate insurance
✔️ Follow safety procedures for weather, exercise, transport and emergencies
Sadly, when people operate without a licence, these checks often aren’t in place — leaving dogs at risk and owners with little protection if the worst happens.
Please, before leaving your beloved pets with anyone:
🐾 Ask to see their licence
🐾 Check insurance cover
🐾 Read reviews
🐾 Visit the premises first
🐾 Don’t be afraid to ask questions
Our dogs are family, and their safety should always come first. ❤️
Please share to help raise awareness
