All Breeds Boarding Kennels and Cattery is owned and operated by Tony and Consuela Middleditch who live on-site. We purchased the Lyndhurst property in 1994 with the specific intention of creating a
one-stop dog and cat facility and, as a first step, established the All Breeds Dog Training Centre in 1995 to provide all forms of dog training, including
one-on-one teaching for difficult dogs and problem solving lessons. Now, after several years of planning the kennel facility and cattery is a reality.

Both Tony and Consuela are enthusiastic animal lovers, and bring to the new venture skills developed in corporate management and client service. Tony holds qualifications as a professional dog trainer.

We recognise your pets are family members, and consequently the kennel and cattery accommodation has been designed and constructed to ensure the comfort and safety of your pets during the time they spend with us. Dogs are be housed entirely indoors in their own generous-sized pen located in a light and airy location with in-floor heating, small dogs have an area separate from the larger dogs. Cats are kept in their own part of the building and are pampered with large enclosures and their own individual heater. Evaporative air conditioning servicing the whole complex will ensure the comfort of both dogs and cats whatever the season.

The ventilation system is capable of replacing all air in the kennel and cattery building up to 30 times per hour, whilst the high Ortech Durra Acoustic Ceiling has been specially selected to ensure the noise level is kept to a minimum both internally and externally. The concrete floors and walls have been treated with Medi-Vet Antimicrobial Concrete Densifier, which seals the concrete to prevent ingress of urine and chemicals and eradicate mould, microbes, deep seated disease, acids, oils and body fats. All pens are disinfected daily.

Waste from both kennels and cattery is processed by a worm farm septic system which disposes of all solid and liquid waste. The residual water and worm castings are then directed back into the grassed areas.

Rainwater from the roof of the kennel and cattery building is stored in large tanks and utilised in both the kennel and garden.

Our boarding facility meets or exceeds all of the requirements set down by the Code of Practice for the Operation of Boarding Establishments and the Domestic (Feral and Nuisance) Animal Act.
