A fantastic experience here today for a Dachshund Swimming Party (organised by Lavender House). All the staff were brilliant, so accommodating and friendly and really put so much effort into making it a festive treat for doggies and their humans.
Every member of the Paddlin Paws team truly cares and did everything they can to help make the experience for our dog great. The team have welcomed Hank and his quirks and he always has a wonderful time. Highly recommend for all for fun, not just health!
Tucker has been going to Paddlin Paws for a little while now. We originally started as he was experiencing some limping and weakness in one of his front legs, so hydrotherapy was advised to use by the vet. The very first visit was scary for Tucker but Simba was great with him and made sure he was comfortable in the pool. And now a few months down the line he’s no longer limping and is overjoyed with his time in the pool. Hannah has also been fantastic with him and he’s absolutely ecstatic to see her and get in the pool! And just to add to that a little picture from one of our sessions with Hannah 😊
I cannot recommend Paddlin' Paws enough! This is so much more than just a pool for dogs—it's a truly exceptional facility run by people who genuinely love and understand animals. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was welcoming, clean, and entirely focused on making the experience positive for both me and my dog. For my younger, energetic pup, the fun swim sessions are her favorite! The pool is perfectly maintained, and the secure, happy environment means I can relax while she burns off energy safely. The instructors are fantastic at building confidence in the water and making it a genuinely fun experience. If you're looking for professional hydrotherapy, a safe space for exercise, or just a fun day out for your furry friend, look no further than Paddlin' Paws. They deserve ten stars!
I took both my dogs here and they had the best time ever. One of my dogs is getting on and to have her splashing around weight free in water was great. The people there were really nice and knowledgeable. I’ve already booked again and will be a part of my dogs health in the future.
