At PDTKC, we are here to provide the best care and due attention to your cats and dogs and make them feel at home in a stress-free environment.
We, PDTKC, understand that leaving your pet can be a stressful time (for both of you!) but we are DAERA-registered and have Qualified Staff on board with Daycare and Boarding Qualifications as well as the essential Pet First Aid. And while in our care, we will provide adequate exercise, with a minimum number of daily exercise routines.
Our secured area outside our dog kennels in Larne allows ample space for your dogs to run around but we can also accomodate those rainy days with an internal area.
And, of course, we will adapt to any requirements that you feel is best for your pet to make their stay as homely as possible. We cannot wait to welcome them.
We understand that every pet is unique. That’s why we offer exceptional care and attention to each one of our guests.
All breeds and ages will feel welcome at PDTKC.
Benefit from our popular dog training classes and build both confidence in yourself and your dog.
New puppies, rescue and existing dogs will all benefit at Practical Dog Training.
Cats are welcome too! Whether you’re out for a holiday or business trip, afford them a comfortable stay with us in our warm shelters.
They’ve plenty to play with too!
"Our nervous collie stayed with the team for 17 days while we were on holiday. Absolutely delighted with the care and attention they give her. I was provided with photos and updates durning her time away. Kennels are very clean and dogs are well exercised daily. Could not ask for better care and would 100% recommend Angela and her team to anyone."
"Staff and facilities are fantastic! My dog is well exercised and loves going to PDTKC and I have total confidence in the staff looking after her.
Facilities are spotlessly clean and pet looked after so well I've booked her in for a week in Kennels - she probably won't want to come home!! I absolutely recommend PDTKC to anyone looking for a clean, well run doggy day care or kenneling service."
"Can’t speak highly enough of PDTKC, you can really tell they are animal people and love animals. Ollie loves coming here and we always feel very comforted and relaxed leaving him which allows us to relax on nights away. They WhatsApp you photos as well which is a nice and gratefully received touch!"
"Left my 2 dogs in for a few nights. Worried about the wee one but needn't have, he never missed me. Got photos every day and they were having great fun. Very caring staff and very knowledgeable."
"Love leaving our dog here ... friendly warm and caring and you can tell that this is more than a job to them. I couldn’t recommend them enough. We’d be lost without them and we’ll never use anyone else."
"Ludi loves staying with Angela and team! It might be the under floor heating or the treats and fun exercise times who knows but he is always happy and relaxed to return! I love all the pic updates too! We are returning customers and can’t fault PDTKC at all."
