Tammi 3 Year Old Female Daschund
Tammi is a very sweet little girl who is no longer required for breeding. She has had a tough start to life and is taking her time to get used to home comforts. She can get quite worried on the lead but she does enjoy being carried out . Given time Tammi will enjoy the great out doors but patience will be needed to allow her to conquer her fears at her own pace and without being forced.
... She is good when meeting people and dogs, Tammi gets a great deal of her confidence from the resident dogs and she will only be re homed where there is already a gentle similar sized dog in situ, another Dashund would be perfect.
Tammi travels well in the car . She will need new owners that are happy to continue her training and socialisation and be patient with her when she makes a mistake. Tammi has been neutered, vaccinated and micro chipped, She is also up to date with her flea and worming treatments. Tammi has had her teeth scaled and polished. She is currently being fostered in Hertfordshire, SG13.

Many apologies for my poor organisation, but I have a dog (Milo) booked in from the 28 Dec 2018 until the 2/3 Jan 2019. I haven't put an owners name down and am at a complete loss as to who it is. 😖. Please let me know if this is you, or if I'm having a 'senior moment'! Lin 😳x
Some beauties arriving 😀, some leaving 😢, some here forever 😍, but they are all stunning. Looking forward to a special little girl this evening too. Simply had to add another pic of Bennie! (Sid the Sloth!) 😂😂😂😂 Happy Bank Holiday everyone!! xx
My very own Sid the Sloth! He's beautiful too - really, he is!! Haha 😂😂 Photos in order of gorgeous ..to....Sid! Love you Bennie!
What a glorious morning! Happy Sunday from a relaxed and chilled Doggie Home Vacation! xx
Apologies for posting twice
Just to let everyone know that Sam now has a home 😀. Thank you so much for your interest and concern. It’s been amazing how many people have cared. Thanks again, Lin x
UPDATE: thankfully Sam now has a wonderful Forever Home. 07.04.18
Sorry to post this on here but I really am worried about this poor boy. This poor boy is in desperate need of a home. A friend of mine met him about 4wks ago in the Kennel and his gentle nature and sad expression really got her. He's a big lad, very, very soft. He's not coping in kennels, has very sore pads and is quite underweight. He's not quite 2, fully house-trained and stayed with her last night but real...ly needs a forever home now. He's wonderful with other dogs, rabbits etc. He's a really placid easy dog, just very big. Please please share and help me find beautiful Sam a wonderful new home He’s losing his will and spirit bless him 😢

Some 2018 Boarding beauties for you to see. Awww. The business will be shut for 10 days over Easter. There will be someone in the house, but please contact me via messenger / this fb page if important. Thanks everyone again for trusting me with your gorgeous dogs, and for understanding that I am unable to take as many dogs as I did last year. Happy Easter! Lin x 🌼🐣☺️
The lovely Mabel is going home today, but 'ickle Ollie is here a bit longer! Aren't they fab ❤️🐾? Although Mabel looks like she's had a shock in one photo!! 😱xx
Bless him - 15yrs old! 😢
Hi everyone and Happy New Year! Just writing to let you know that, for a couple of reasons, I will be cutting down on the number of dogs I home board from now on. I understand that this will be limiting for some owners, and you may want to establish a relationship with other home boarders. I'd be happy to help you out with this if you wish. I'm sorry if this inconveniences some people, but I will make every effort possible to accommodate my lovely 'regulars'. I have some dog...s already booked in for 2018 and 2019, so if you want to confirm/check on your booking please contact me in your usual way. Thank you for all your support and hopefully I will still be able to be 'Holiday Mum' (Bianca 😆) to your fur babies! Thanks, in advance, for your understanding. Lin 🐾❤️xx

Not all Christmas cards done - so sorry. Please accept wishes from 'The Boys' and myself for a very Merry Christmas and a wonderful New Year. 🎄🎉😃xxx
����� Both my dogs have anxiety issues, and one of them also has medical issues. As such I've never really been able to leave them with anyone else who understands them like I do. That was until I met Lin! She is amazing! We met up for an hour at her home first to see how my dogs got on with hers, when we could see they were comfortable they went over for some short sleepovers to get them used to staying there. Eventually we were able to book Lin to take care of the dogs for a whole week so we could go on holiday, which is something we've not been able to do in years! Lin is so patient and understanding of each individual dogs needs. She is very friendly and gave us regular updates on how they were getting on over the week. By the end of the week I'm not even sure my dogs wanted to come home! I took this as a good sign and there's no one else I'd trust with my dogs more than Lin. We're already thinking about next years holiday! ���
Whilst I haven't left my dog with Lin, I have worked with her previously and she is one of the kindest, most caring people I have had the pleasure of working with. I wouldn't leave my boy with just anyone; they would have to care about dogs like I do and I know Lin genuinely does. Xx
What a lovely place to leave your precious pooch. Lin only takes little dogs and you can be assured that they are loved and cared for as if they're her own.
We visited Lin today for the first time. Fab place for dogs and we've already booked 2 stays in. George will love it there! Lovely person and lovely dogs! xx
This is simple! I wouldn't want to leave Winnie, my Cockerpoo, with anyone else. Lin is compassionate, caring and completely trustworthy. Winnie has stayed here many times and I know she is well cared for in this beautiful home.
When I leave Winnie with Lin, she goes in wagging her tail and knowing that she is happy makes me confident in leaving her.
I cannot recommend Doggie Vacation highly enough �
Such a lovely lovely lady!! 100% recommend xx
So lovely to know Maggie was happy and very well cared for while we were away! Thank you Lin, she's looking forward to next time 🐶😊X
Our little Winnie has just returned from a week with Lin and you can clearly see the care and love she's provided, she's been a truly pampered pup.
Lin sticks with your home routine and does all possible to reassure dogs in her care and make them feel safe.
Really appreciated the updates as really missed her whilst away, would highly recommend and would definitely use again when needed. Thanks Lin xx
My two boys have been so spoilt with the care that they have received from Lin! I could completely relax on my first holiday away from them due to the amazing photo/video updates and seeing how much attention and love they were getting! It really is a home from home, I'm not sure who enjoyed their holiday more, me or the dogs! Haha! I definitely recommend Lin to anyone who is looking for 5* treatment for their fur babies!
My doggy, Mabel, absolutely loved her little doggy holiday and Linda was amazing. Kept us updated with how she was doing during her stay which we really appreciated. Mabel didn't want to leave she had such a good time with all her doggy chums! So glad we found this little gem- thankyou Linda so much for your care! Mabel can't wait to come back! �� �Xx
Lin is an amazing lady who makes your precious fur baby feel so welcome we are so glad that we found A special home from home.
Lin from Doggie Home Vacation is absolutely amazing! I have been struggling to find someone who provides a lone dog boarding service, Lyn has 3 of her own gorgeous dogs so couldn't provide the services I needed, however, she has been so helpful and has found me the perfect boarder for my dog! I have only been away once since having my dog 6 years ago, I love spending my summers with him but the UK hasn't had great weather the last few years and I need some sun!! I'm sure if you have a dilemma like me this company will go the extra mile to help you! This just shows how caring and passionate they are about animals. Thank you so much for all your help, I'm over the moon!! �
Hi Lin I'd just like to say a big thank you for looking after Bonnie.
I know she made herself very much at home and was quite content with all the attention you gave her . Bonnies looking forward to her next holiday with you as long as you can put up with her snoring � xx
Harry has just returned from 2 weeks holiday home from home with Lin . I can honestly say that I believe he has had the best care i could have wished for in a truly lovely loving environment . Unfortunately Harry developed an abcess under his neck 3 days before I left and Lin carried on treating him with medication and a vet check while I was away . We had updates and photos every now and again which were very reassuring and made us smile . Harry is already looking forward to his next visit ! We feel totally reassured that our special sausage is in very safe hands xxxxxx
Frank had his first stay and I can honestly say that he was so well looked after we would not let frank stay anywhere else. On our first visit to have a look around as soon as we stepped through the door we felt so relaxed and at home. We was dreading leaving frank But when we dropped frank off for his first overnight stay Linda and her lovely mum made frank so welcome all the fears we had disappeared. Can't thank you both enough for looking after our baby. Doggie home vacation is the perfect place for frank to stay. We both know he was well looked after and you treated him as though he was one of yours. We can't thank you enough. X
Flora spent a long weekend at Doggie Home Vacations. It was her first time away from home but Linda made it a home from home for her, even letting her share her bedroom and sending us pictures of her to reassure us that she was ok. We could tell that she had been well looked after by the way she greeted Linda when she later met her again. We would thoroughly recommend Doggie Home Vacations.
Dougie, my mini dachshund, has had the best holiday ever with Linda! The only downside is now he's missing all his new furry mates! Linda's house is beautiful and can really tell she's looked after my doggie and he's had a great time. Would 100% recommend her and Dougie will be back :) xxx
An amazing place for your dog to be cared for and looked after when your unable to.
Linda is a lovely lovely women who who clearly loves what she does and provides a safe,comfortable and enjoyable doggy care service.
Honey really enjoyed her stay. Socialising with the other dogs and new people is an invaluable experience.
No doubts in our mind while we were away that she wouldn't be cared for as if she was Linda's own.
Would recommend 100 percent!
Until next time � x
