New dogs to Muddy Paws

Muddy Paws delivers a boutique experience for a small number of dogs.

To ensure a calm, compatible group, we host a maximum of seven dogs at any one time, with some breed guidelines in place for safety and group harmony. All guests must be fully social, non-aggressive, and comfortable around both people and other dogs.

Pooches over six months of age must be spayed or neutered, and excessive barking isn’t suited to our environment. Before their first full stay, new dogs complete a Wednesday overnight trial so we can make sure everyone settles in happily. Please note that trials will not be accepted over peak periods such as school / public holidays.
However our pack is currently full and Muddy Paws is not accepting new dogs right now.
