Every day at our centre brings new experiences, happy faces, and plenty of wagging tails. From the moment the doors open, our dogs enjoy a full and varied routine designed to stimulate both mind and body. Throughout the day, they take part in safe, supervised social play, treat puzzles, obstacle courses, toy time, and impulse-control games. Most importantly, every activity is supported by lots of encouragement — and of course, an endless supply of cuddles and kisses.

In addition, our secure outdoor areas give dogs the space to run freely, play with friends, and burn off energy. Afterwards, they wind down for a well-earned afternoon nap. Some dogs choose to curl up in our purpose-built box beds, while others prefer our cosy cuddle corner, where they can rest close to staff or other dogs for extra comfort.

As a volunteer or placement student, you’ll see how structure, play, and rest all come together to create a calm, balanced environment. You may also help with setting up enrichment activities, observing social interactions, or supporting staff during quieter rest periods. These opportunities will help you develop a practical understanding of canine body language, group dynamics, and behaviour management in a professional setting.

Meanwhile, our media team often captures moments from the day to share on our social media pages — Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok — giving owners a glimpse of their dog’s adventures and helping you see how positive communication builds trust between team and clients.

Finally, it’s worth noting that our team lives and breathes dog care. Many members have been with us since the very beginning, while others started as volunteers themselves before joining the team permanently. Every staff member holds a canine first aid qualification, and together we share a genuine love for creating the best possible day for every dog in our care.
