Tara Dog Boarding Kennels

Winter 2011

HI Everyone!

This is our first newsletter on our new website.

We are very excited to have it up and running. Your feedback is very welcome and appreciated.

We want to make our website useful and will continue to edit as required and bring regualr updates.

We also hope that having this newsletter will be a way to give more detailed information relevant to the time you are looking to board. Seasonal information in particular and updates on holiday periods and other useful info!.

As you probably know we are the longest established and the biggest boarding kennels and cattery in the Canberra region. This means that we can guarantee your pets room at the "Inn" not including the busiest periods of Christmas / New Year and Easter. We do book out some time in advance for those periods but most other times you really can just turn up during open hours - we have plenty of room.

We are pleased to announce that we have upgraded the heating and now have new in-slab heating for big and little dogs and it is very cosy. Nevertheless it is still important to bring a jumper or coat if your dog is very young or old or has short hair or just plain feels the cold.

Dogs don't spend all day on their bed and if the weather is chilly it is nice to have a jumper if available. We put jumpers and coats on at about 3 or 4pm and take them off in the morning before exercise if its not too cold.

If its very cold we leave them on. We have jumpers and coats available for sale and hire.

On the subject of Christmas/ New Year the booking numbers are rising and so it is best to get your bookings in as soon as you know what your plans are. The period from 23 December to 3 January is still available but only as a minimum stay (shorter booking spaces are now booked). This year bookings over this period will need to be paid in advance and are not refundable if cancelled after November 1.

July school holidays are here and the winter season is off to a good start in the Snowy Mountains. We are planning on having a sheet at the front desk and ask people to put their travel destination to see where the favorite spots are for Canberran's holidays. We will let you know what we find.

Looking forward to meeting you soon.
