Why Not Board Your Dog with Jerry Green?
Dog safety and wellbeing are the top priorities for Jerry Green Dog Rescue, which is why the charity is launching a unique doggy day care and boarding facility at its North Lincolnshire centre.
Set within the charity’s secure 12-acre site in Broughton, Lincolnshire, 14 new boarding kennels are now available for dogs while their owners are away on holiday.
The flexible kennels can house up to four dogs from the same home and there are suites available for larger breeds to ensure a comfortable stay.
Zoe Croft, Boarding Manager at Jerry Green Dog Rescue, said: “As an experienced team of dog welfare experts, we’re looking forward to welcoming long and short-term boarders to our new facility.
“We’re all animal lovers, so we appreciate that owners want to be sure their dogs are receiving the highest quality care while they’re enjoying weekends away and family holidays.
“During their stay, dogs will be taken on a woodland walk (on the lead) each morning and enjoy free play (off the lead), in our secure enclosure, in the afternoon.
“Our home room – where our rescue dogs are often matched with their potential new owners – will be available for quiet time for any dogs who are missing their usual home environment.”
Boarding dogs will enjoy comfortable beds, dedicated one-to-one time, enrichment KONGs and a complimentary bag of delicious treats when they leave.
Meanwhile, doggy day care is available for dogs whose owners are working longer hours or want to ensure their pets aren’t alone for long periods during the day.
Prices start at £12.50 per dog, per night for boarding and £11 for doggy day care. And profits from the new venture will be used by the charity to look after and rehome the abandoned dogs in their care.
Patricia Harrison, one of the first people to put her dogs into Jerry Green’s boarding kennels, said: “My two Westies were there for 17 days under the care of Zoe Croft, the Boarding Manager.
“She was very professional and put my mind at rest with details of the care, walks and attention they were to receive. My youngest Westie has many health problems, but Zoe was meticulous.
“Zoe sent me pictures of them during their stay, with updates of how they were. They came home happy and relaxed and I will definitely be boarding them here again.”

Notes for editors:
• Jerry Green Dog Rescue was founded in 1961 in Broughton, Lincolnshire and is now one of the UK’s largest dog rescue charities.
• Jerry Green Dog Rescue has a caring ethos which puts the dogs in its care at the centre of everything it does. It also operates a policy whereby prospective adopters are introduced to dogs in a neutral environment away from the kennel, resulting in less stress for the dog and increasing the chances of permanent homes being found.
• The adoption process at Jerry Green Dog Rescue involves a number of introductory visits and the rehoming team provide pre and post adoption support to ensure the move to the dog’s new home is as smooth as possible.
• The charity receives no Government or National Lottery funding. This means it is dependent on the generosity of public and corporate donors/sponsors.
