Icon What you may expect after your dog’s stay

01.

WEIGHT

You may notice some change in your dog’s weight. This is completely normal, especially during the summer months. At this time of year, high temperatures, combined with changes in food, feeding schedule, and of course constant play and activities, can lead to a slight change from their usual weight, most often a small loss.

What should I do: Help your dog return to its usual daily routine.
02.

TIREDNESS

During their stay at our facilities, your dog plays constantly, swims in the pools, and generally enjoys a variety of activities. As a result, do not be surprised if your dog comes home and sleeps a lot and very deeply, with an overall lazy mood.

What should I do: Do not worry and simply let your dog rest.
03.

MELANCHOLY

Put yourself in your dog’s place. During their stay with us, they play constantly, make new friends, and stay active all day long. So it is completely normal and expected that, after returning home and leaving all those new experiences behind, they may feel a little lonely or nostalgic.

What should I do: Give them an extra dose of love, care, play, and attention.
04.

DIRT & SMALL ACCIDENTS

We would like to remind you that dogs at our hotel are not kept in cages or restricted in any way. So it is only natural for them to come back a little untidy, as they spend the whole day playing freely in nature, rolling on the grass, and splashing in the pools. It is also natural that small accidents, scrapes, or light scratches may happen as a result of their active social interaction, something you have already been informed about and accepted in our booking form.

What should I do: Treat them to a nice, relaxing bath.
05.

BARKING

If your dog tends to bark a lot and very intensely, you may notice some hoarseness or even a partial and temporary loss of voice. It is also possible that you may see small blisters around the mouth.

What should I do: At first, just be a little patient and your dog’s voice will gradually return. If any blisters appear and persist, contact your veterinarian.
06.

POSSIBLE DIARRHEA

Your dog may experience diarrhea as a result of the change in environment, food, eating fruit or nuts from our gardens, or stress and separation anxiety, which in some cases may even lead to gastritis.

What should I do: First, be a little patient, as the symptom will usually pass soon. Avoid giving food on the first day. If the symptoms continue, always contact your veterinarian.
07.

ESPECIALLY IN WINTER

Your dog may also catch a cold, with the usual symptoms such as coughing, diarrhea, or a runny nose, as a result of the temperature changes they experience when moving between indoor and outdoor spaces.

What should I do: Keep an eye on your dog and, especially if you notice coughing, inform your veterinarian immediately.
08.

WATCH OUT FOR KENNEL COUGH

Please read the leaflet we provide carefully and ask your veterinarian for detailed guidance on prevention and treatment measures.

What should I do: If you notice any of the symptoms of kennel cough, especially the most characteristic one, a strong cough often sounding like a horn, inform your veterinarian and us immediately.

Icon What to expect from our dog wellbeing checks

For our guest dogs, caregivers enter their spaces twice a day to pet them, play with them, check on them, and take them to and from the playgrounds. Our cleaning staff also enter their spaces twice a day to clean and check the little houses, refresh their water, feed them, and remove any leftover food.

If they notice any symptom such as vomiting, diarrhea, or a hotspot, any issue such as loss of appetite or aggression, or any incident such as minor injuries, difficulty walking, or small scratches resulting from social life at the kennel, they promptly inform the owner and, when needed, the veterinarian.

Even so, if there is no obvious symptom or clearly visible issue, it is practically impossible for us to carry out a thorough examination of every guest dog.
In conclusion, a full general health assessment of a dog is neither our responsibility nor our field of expertise.

In short, remember that your dog enjoyed a wonderful stay with the devoted care of I Love Dogs and cannot wait to visit us again.
