We provide fresh water for each dog on a daily basis in separate water bowls. Water will be changed once daily, or sooner if visibly soiled/contaminated. Water bowls are kept separate from food bowls, with one positioned in each room to allow all dogs to access their own water.
All dogs will be fed separately unless the owner has specified differently. All dogs will be fed at least once per day, unless specified different by the owner or a vet. We will work with the owner to ensure their dogs dietary requirements and eating habits are met.
