Teeth Cleaning

Dachshunds are prone to tartar, and a stay with us is the ideal time to get on top of it. We use emmi-pet ultrasonic cleaning.

  • Your sausage comes home with a cleaner, fresher mouth
  • emmi-pet ultrasonic, so no scraping, no noise and no vibration
  • No sedation and no anaesthetic, so no stress and no vet bill
  • Done at their own pace by the team they already know

£25 per session plus VAT (£30 inc. VAT), added to any stay.

Health & Entry Requirements

To guarantee the well-being of our guests, all sausages must be fully vaccinated and treated for parasites prior to their stay. We welcome dogs of all ages. Intact dogs are subject to trial. For unspayed females, please inform us of their most recent season to ensure they are not in season during their stay. Special considerations are made for younger females.

Unparalleled Care

Our team provides round-the-clock care every day, reflecting our commitment to the highest professional standards. At The Sausage Dog Sanctuary, we personalize each guest’s sleeping arrangements to ensure they feel at home, from cozy corners to snuggles in front of the Aga.

Communication & Delights

Enjoy peace of mind with a designated contact for seamless updates and spoil your pet with our homemade dog biscuits. Activities are customized, including individual and group walks, to suit your dog’s pace and preferences, with special outings like visits to Chatsworth House and local dog cafes.

Specialised Support

We offer tailored areas for older and smaller dogs. Daily play sessions in our large garden ensure all dogs have fun and relax, while regular updates via WhatsApp keep you connected to your pet’s adventures.

Exclusive Extras

Upon checkout, receive a goody bag filled with treats as our thank you for choosing The Sausage Dog Sanctuary. We promise more than just a stay: your pet will enjoy a journey filled with comfort, joy, and unforgettable moments.

5.0

Sausage Dog Sanctuary surpassed all expectations during Bella’s stay. From the warm welcome to the personalised attention, every detail was impeccable. Regular updates from Hannah eased any worries, and I highly recommend this sanctuary to fellow dachshund owners. We’ll definitely be back!
