Inspired by Millie Moo
Millie Moo is tiny, brave, and full of opinions. We've shaped our entire hotel around her needs. Calm movements, gentle hands and really listening to what a dachshund is trying to tell us- even when they're givng us the 'side-eye'.
What Our Families Say...
⭐ Hannah ⭐
P&D have had a trial stay with Auntie Sausage and the girls ready for a 2 week stay next year. Auntie Sausage gives the boys all the care, cuddles kisses and attention if not more than they would get at home. Its very far away for us but worth it to know our boys are in very good hands especially having an IVDD warrior that Auntie Sausage knows how to care for. Cant wait for their next stay!
⭐ Carmina ⭐
A wonderful lady who is full of love for dachshunds and especially for those who suffer with IVDD. Auntie Sausage will send constant updates and videos which are great and made me feel reassured. Her property and grounds are safe and secure. My Lupa suffers with ivdd and Auntie Sausage was totally on the ball when it came to her care in the house or out whilst walking. Lupa is also needy and anxious and again Auntie Sausage was full of warmth and cuddles. Highly recommend.
