Our home in Dignac, near AngoulêmeA warm home, wide open to nature

In Dignac, between the garden, the big field and the woods, your companion gets a real countryside break, 20 minutes from Angoulême.

What awaits your companion

A fenced garden

Fully fenced, with a little yard behind the wire, for playing and sunbathing in complete safety.

The big village field

Right behind the house, a wide open space for running and letting off steam.

Hunt-free woods

Very regular walks in woods where hunting is banned: less risk, more peace of mind.

No cages

No kennels, no separation, no shutting away. They simply live with us.

A tiny group

Two or three dogs at most, matched to get along. The calm of a home, not a kennel.

A real family

Children raised to respect animals: gentle, thoughtful, and delighted to have furry friends to stay.

The fenced garden, a shared sofa, a proper bed: here they sleep and play just like at home.

Wellbeing & enrichment

Their brain gets a holiday too

A good stay isn't just food and a quick walk. We look after their physical and mental balance, so they come home relaxed, tired out, and keen to come back.

  • Sniffing: treat trails, snuffle mats, sniff boxes. Fifteen minutes of nose work can tire them out as much as a good walk.
  • Exercise: woodland walks and games in the field, adapted to their age and fitness.
  • Gentle socialising: carefully chosen, supervised encounters, never forced.
  • Rest: quiet naps, because a well-rested dog is a happy dog.
Safety

Peace of mind for you, freedom for them

  • Fences checked regularly, gate always closed.
  • Walks on a long line or lead depending on the dog and place, and no off-lead time until we know each other well.
  • Groups put together carefully after the meet-and-greet.
  • A nearby partner vet and a clear emergency plan.
  • Health record and vaccinations checked when each guest arrives.

Come and see us before you book

Let's start with a free meet-and-greet: your companion explores the house, and you ask us anything.
