Each Kennel offers our guests their own spacious, individually heated bedroom area. You are welcome to bring your pet’s own toys and bedding for familiarity and extra reassurance.
They can listen to “doggy radio” and have access to their own sheltered outside run during the day. Larger kennels with platform beds and feeding stations are provided for our larger sized doggy guests, or for customers who have more than one dog.
We can accommodate dogs of most ages, puppies must have had their vaccinations and elderly dogs should still have good mobility and be comfortable being away from their home and owners.
During our busy peak times we use Adaptil natural pheromone plug-ins to help create a calming kennel environment.
We post regular “Pupdates” on our Facebook page so you can check out what your dogs have been up to!

Indoor exercise run
Our location is perfect for long woodland walks in the beautiful Chiltern Hills.. If you would prefer your dog companions to have countryside walks (alongside activities in our paddocks), this is available during our off-peak periods. Our dogs guests are always kept on lead when they are off-site and walked individually (or in pairs from the same home). You can chose half hour or full hour woodland walks. It is advisable that you supply a harness if you would like your dog to be walked off site. Please check the pricing section or contact the office for further information.
Our focus is highly aimed towards enjoyment, exercise and enrichment.
There are 3 exercise paddocks and 2 enrichment areas on site:
Socialising our dog guests together, under supervision, can be a fantastic way for them to bond, make friends and play, although we do understand that this is not always suitable for some guests, for example, nervous or reactive dogs. We never socialise any dog without your written consent.
We can provide a variety of dog coats for our guests to use, however, it is advisable to bring your dog’s own coats for exercise during in colder weather.
Vaccinations
Medication
Puppies and elderly dogs
All of our guest’s core vaccinations, including Kennel Cough, must be up to date at least two weeks prior to their booking. Your pet’s Vaccination Certificate must be shown to staff on arrival (this can be supplied for free from your veterinary practice).
The intro-nasal vaccine for Kennel Cough is also required. You may need to ask your vet to add this to your dog’s vaccines as it may not be included in the annual boosters. It is also advisable that all pets have a regular flea and worming treatment.
If your dog requires medication during their stay at our kennels, please bring their medicines, detailed dosage instructions and information of any preexisting conditions with you. Our staff are trained in administering all forms of medication, including insulin injections.
In the unlikely event that a guest needs veterinary treatment, we have access to excellent 24 hour local veterinary services.
We can accommodate dogs of most ages, puppies must have had their vaccinations and elderly dogs should still have fairly good mobility and be comfortable being away from their home and owners.
Chinnor Hill Kennels reserve the right to refuse entry to any guest that does not meet the above criteria, for their own safety and well-being.
