Dog Day Care and Behavioural Service
Dog Day Care and Behavioural Service
What We Do
TweedDogs are based just outside Lilliesleaf, on 7.226 acres of land with 2 acres of fully enclosed, dog proofed exercise area. This is split into five play/activity areas including a sensory garden, a free work area “Caroline’s Corner” and our training section. This is all spread across over 5 acres of walkway for on-lead dog walks.
We offer the dogs space to run, space to play, space to learn and space to quietly sleep… at their own pace…. with lots of human contact and cuddles from our experienced and qualified staff. We have a qualified behaviourist and a scientific and veterinary medical student amongst our staff.
How it Works
Training
TweedDogs offer dog behavioural modification advice sessions and Be the Perfect Puppy Parent training on a 1 to 1 basis. If you don’t understand why your dog behaves the way he/she does, or would like help with training, we can help.
Grooming
TweedDogs are delighted to be working alongside Salina, of Suds N Scissors to offer owners a full grooming service. Dogs can now attend daycare and go home having been fully pampered, and smelling divine.
DayCare
Home pick ups/drop offs available from Galashiels, St Boswells, Newtown St Boswells, Melrose, Hawick and Selkirk. Spaces are limited. All dogs require to have an initial TRIAL DAY at the centre prior to admittance.
Trial Days
The trial day is mandatory as part of our assessment process and involves new dogs being allocated a single member of staff who will be solely responsible for the dogs’ supervision. This usually takes the form of the staff member spending the first hour or so bonding with the new dog(s), followed by a gentle introduction to suitable chosen ‘playmates’ until such point as the new dog is completely comfortable.
If during the introductions, a dog shows signs of anxiousness we will either go back to square one and start the process again, or remove one or more dogs to the point where the new dog is again comfortable. Some dogs quite happily join into a group almost immediately, however, others take time and patience. Puppies in particular will continue to need more time and care and will at all times be placed in small groups with mostly calmer, older dog

Dog Walking
We take the dogs on walks together. Assuming everyone is getting on well with each other and that every dog is going to benefit from a group walk, we walk your dog with up to three other pals from their group.
Dog Sitting
We have just begun to offer dog sitting and overnight stays in some instances – Please ask us for more information.

Carolines Corner
Fab Fun for Pooches
Caroline’s Corner, is a free work area where we work 1 to 1 with a dog as they use their senses to explore, smell, seek out toys and treats and experience different objects and textures – all to mentally engage and calm them. This area is dedicated to a wonderful lady, Caroline Euman, whose love of dogs (and all animals/birds in fact) inspired us to create it.
Reviews From Our Humans
“Over the last few weeks we have seen such a difference in Max. His confidence has grown and he is now happy socialising and playing with other dogs. Cannot thank TweedDogs enough. Would definitely recommend them.”

“My pup kilo was there today and by looks of the pictures he has had a great time, he’s came back tired and chilled out. He will definitely be back, highly recommended – great communication about how he’s doing on 1st day, thanks all at Tweeddogs, brilliant crew!”
