Black & Tan Dachshund Boarding Reviews 

Our Black and Tan girl Scooby stayed for her first sleepover, after a settling in day a few months ago. Nina’s dedication to daxies was clear from the start, she got to know Scooby while making sure she was happy and comfortable, and welcomed to the pack. We knew our dog was safe and well looked after, especially as a one of a kind breed, and Nina shared regular updates throughout her stay too. Everything is secure and they wear GPS collars, the only thing we needed to bring was Scoobys food! She was even given a tote bag for her next pawcation. Scooby can’t wait!! Highly recommend 💜

My sausage dog recently stayed with Nina at Black and Tan boarding and was extremely well looked after, and I would highly recommend her. Nina’s care for the dogs is exceptional and it would always be my first choice for boarding. My dog particularly loves visiting in the winter when she can snuggle up by the aga. It’s also great that she also gets to socialise with other dogs of the same breed.

We have been taking our little rescue to Black & Tan for around 3 years now and we are so lucky to have somewhere where we know he will be having the best time. Our dog is very nervous as a result of his history and Nina was absolutely fantastic, so patient while he settled in to let him go at his own pace and build trust. Now, every photo I have sent through his tail is just a blur because it's wagging so hard!

Nina really treats the dogs as her own and we can enjoy our holiday knowing that our little dog is enjoying his too (especially with salmon and sausages by the aga!). It really is worth its weight in gold!

First time leaving dog at kennels and Nina made the whole process easy and photos and videos she sent were very reassuring to us. Dog came back to us happy calm and relaxed. Would use again for sure thanks Nina

We had the pleasure of booking our miniature dachshund with Black & Tan for 3 nights. We have only good things to say. Nina clearly loves what she does and take great interest in her guests. She is responsive, organised and great at communicating before and during the stay. It is a great sausage set-up, not least the secure grounds (GPS collars a great touch too). In our case, having a dachshund who has been through IVDD, we were massively re-assured by Nina’s experience of this and willingness to adjust what our our sausage was allowed to do. Thank you. We hope we (or rather our sausage) can stay again.

If you own a Dacshund you will always worry about where to leave them if you need to do so for a day or more. Black & Tan is the perfect venue. Nina welcomes each and every Daxie as though they were her own and being a Daxie owner she knows the breed inside out. There is a secure 2 acre field attached to the property so whether your Daxie likes to run, dig holes or chase balls their desire is catered for. Milly, my Daxie has the time of her life as is evidenced by the frequent pictures and videos Nina sends. I even book her in for her own pawcation if I’m not going away as she has such a great time. Black & Tan is “Simply the Best”. Thankyou Nina.

My very precious girls went to Nina’s recently for their first week long stay. I was so anxious about leaving them especially with Autumn only being 8 months old & being very unsure about things at the moment. As it was the first time I had left them for so long I was worried they would be unhappy & not settle. Nina was great as always sending me lots of updates & photos & videos of them to reassure me & to show me they were having a great time, which they definitely did & have come home as if I’ve never been away. Autumn has come home all confident & independent & thinks she has grown into a very big girl. The time with the other dogs & being able to run freely has done her so much good. Thank you all of the team at Black & Tan 🐾

My baby Tilly has just come back from her trial sleepover which was no problem and she loved it. I was apprehensive at first as she has never stayed anywhere I don’t no but Nina was great and creates a great atmosphere for them. She came back and was absolutely shattered from all the running around which was great for her to play with other doggies. Nina gave me regular updates to let me know she was safe and well and that she was loving life. Tilly is looking forward to her pawcation when her mummy and daddy go on vacation. Thanks Nina and team amazing place x 😘

Our little dapple had a brilliant trial stay last night! Nina is so lovely, she answered all of our questions and made us feel very reassured. We got regular updates and pictures so we could see how much he was enjoying his stay! Thank you Nina!

My 9 month old puppy Beans stayed here. We left her there for 2 nights and were very nervous as it was our first time without her overnight, but we could not be happier with how she was looked after. We were given regular updates about how she was doing, as well as photos and videos. It is clear Beans had a great time and made friends there too. She was looked after extremely well and we will definitely be leaving Beans again in the future.

We cannot recommend Nina and russ at Black and Tan any higher if there was a million star option we would rate above it! Hudson stayed over Christmas with Nina and russ and of course his 2 besties Erik and frankie, I never felt so reassured leaving him anywhere (over protective mum) he is always so happy the second we get on to the driveway up to the farm! He is treated as one of their own and we are given regular pup dates throughout his stay, we are so grateful that we found Black and Tan! They were so flexible over Christmas with Hudson having to come 2 days earlier than planned and we see how cared for he is whilst staying with them! Do not hesitate to book with them you will not regret it! Hudson cannot wait for his next pawcation!

Our 8 month Dachshund stayed with Nina for her trial night last night and absolutely loved it! she's properly pooped now too! we were sent updates and pics too which was really nice. We couldn't recommend Black & Tan Dachshund Boarding more! Don't hesitate to book!

Our pups had an amazing holiday with Nina and her family. The surroundings are perfect for the doggies - plenty of open space and it is so nice for the dogs to play and socialise with each other. Nina kept in touch all throughout their stay to let us know how they were and what they had been getting up to. Would recommend to anyone who wants their Dachshunds to stay in a "home from home" environment!! 🐾🐾

My two girls were able to stay while I went on a business trip. They had fun and loved all the space to run around. I got updates and knew they were in good hands

Rocky has been staying since he was a puppy , he absolutely loves being there with his second family , Nina and her husband Russ not only welcome them into their home but their family too .
The love and care they are given is fantastic, the regular updates are wonderful, you see what a great holiday they are having , it’s lovely to see them so happy with the other sausages.
I’m so thankful we found Nina and it’s lovely seeing her become so successful .

I visited Black & Tan Boarding to see if it was suitable for our fussy dachshund. When I visited the dachshunds were running around in the large secure field enjoying themselves. Nina was really helpful answering all the questions and gave me the confidence that Hugo would be in safe hands.

I have known Nina since the start of her Black and Tan business and it has been great to watch it grow. Nina really goes out of her way to ensure all the daxies who stay with her receive a first class experience and it’s great to know you are leaving them in such safe hands. Our daxie has been going since she was a puppy and I wouldn’t send her anywhere else.

We wouldn’t leave our little dachshund Olive anywhere else. Nina totally understands Daxies and treats all her guests as if they were her own. Nothing is ever too much trouble and although Olive is quite anxious normally, she absolutely loves going to Black and Tan. Nina is so careful to make sure that their personal needs are catered for and truly gets to know your little dog. Could not recommend more highly.

Nina and the gang at Black and Tan look after my little man Paolo as if he was their own 💓
He gets all the cuddles he needs when he’s there and comes home happy and sleepy after his pawcation!
Never worry leaving him here, he just zips away from us to join his friends when we take him there.
