“SIMPLY an awesome team!”
Reviewed 5th July 2017
Happy Hounds (HH) goes above and beyond for our dog, Lobo, and we are ALL very happy with them. My husband and I work varying hours and HH go out of their way to be flexible, and to respond to our requests (often last minute), to make everything work seamlessly. Lobo has separation anxiety and so they keep him around a bit longer especially when we are stuck at work. The staff is really friendly and well trained...Lobo starts singing happy tunes the minute they walk through the door. The door to door pick up is a wonderful time saver and very helpful. Even though Lobo is a very energetic pup, he is always knackered by the time he is dropped off and has many happy dreams for the rest of the night. Highly, highly recommended.

“Winners! #fact ;)”
Reviewed 1st July 2017
Happy Hounds have provided day care for my Cockerpoo, Amber for the last two years. They provide a fantastic service and are so flexible despite my awkward working patterns and short notice requests.

Amber can't actually tell me how much she enjoys Happy Hounds, but I think if you are a dog owner you can tell and I reckon she loves it. She gets plenty of exercise, cuddles and essential socialisation with other dogs.

One final thing...the team are all lovely. Thank you for a perfect service.

“Totally bokers.... about dogs!”
Reviewed 1st July 2017
I'm not sure I have ever come across a business or group of people who are so utterly devoted to their furry customers! Emily, Sophia & the team are fantastic with our Lab and have always gone above and beyond in looking after her, even when she was recovering from an operation, and have even created a # for her on Instagram! Reliable, friendly and caring is all you can ask. Highly recommended.

We tried a few different dog-walking services in Winchester before discovering Happy Hounds and I can honestly say they are best around! We could not be happier with the care they take of our lovely (boisterous) labrador Sydney. They are fantastic!

Reviewed 29th June 2017
Emily and her team have supported us so much to give Scrumpy a happy life while we have to work full time. They are very flexible, responsive and caring. They have helped Scrumpy grow in confidence and have supported us with socialising her at Scrumpy's own speed so that now she is happy to play with almost any dog. Scrumpy had stayed with Emily while we have been away and she had a great time, sleeping on the bed with Lola! Emily knows how daft I am and I love seeing updates and pictures. I feel completely confident knowing Scrumpy is with the Happy Hounds gang.

“An extended family for our boy Rusty! ”
Reviewed 29th June 2017
Rusty, now a 22 month Cockerpoo, has known everyone at Happy Hounds since he was 9 weeks old. He has basically grown up knowing that every week day, one of his Aunties calls in around 1100-1130 to pick him up. He then gets to spend a good couple of hours with lots of other dogs going mad and being kept safe by one of his Aunties. Then he is dropped off aroun 1300-1330, has a little time to rest before Mum & Dad get home and he gets it all over again. They're such a supportive group in helping us raise a fantastic dog, we couldn't have been happier with the service they're providing.

“Fabulous!”
Reviewed 29th June 2017
I have been sending my Border Terrier on walks with Happy Hounds for nearly two years and it's been the best decision. So accomodating, reasonable priced and they genuinely care so much about the dogs. I feel my dog is in safe hands and he thoroughly enjoys his daily walks. I would not use anyone else. All the walkers are so friendly and kind. We have also used the dog sitting service. I hugely recommend this company!

Reviewed 29th June 2017
You can tell that Emily and her team at Happy Hounds really love dogs; they always ensure their charges are well exercised, well looked after and treated with love. We tried other dog walkers but Happy Hounds is the only one that our dog actually greets with enthusiasm and she genuinely looks forward to her walkies. Happy Hounds is also reliable, well organised with excellent communications. A lovely, professional business that is a real pleasure to do business with.

I have been using Happy Hounds for 2 years now. My Spaniel goes everyday and absolutely loves loves loves his time with HH. The staff are amazing and treat your dog as if they were their own. They are all fully trained in first aid and I know my dog is getting the best so I can get on with my job! HH also have a fab shop with a wide range of dog food which has been carefully sourced for their nutritional value so I buy all my foods through HH. I cannot recommend HH enough or thank HH enough for all they do!

Bates has been going to happy hounds for nearly a year now! He has day care 4-5 days per month, which changes and Happy Hounds are always able to accomodate him. He has also had weekend stays, i wouldnt use anyone else now. They really are great with him and he's so happy to get there!
Happy Hounds are always on hand if I need last minute doggy day care and will collect or drop him off which is amazingly helpful with my job.
I highly recommend Happy Hounds, truly the best doggy day care around!

“Willow Billington”
Reviewed 24th November 2015
We choose Happy Hounds because like most dog owners we love our girl. Of course Happy Hounds offer a great day care and walking service but what we most appreciate is the fact that they really do care about the health and welfare of the dogs also. Willow, our little cockerpoo is a particularly fussy eater and as she is only 15-months we worry about her general health. The guys at Happy Hounds offer great nutritional advice and guidance as well as supplying a wide range of healthy dog food. I feel really comfortable now knowing that Willow has a healthy balanced diet. Thank you Happy Hounds. x

“Happy Hounds = Happy Owners”
Reviewed 24th November 2015
Our dog Wilber (Labrador) has a fantastic time with Emily and her team. He gets a big fuss made of him all the time, and loves all the walks. He stays with Happy Hounds regularly, and never seems to want to leave! Emily loves her job and this is very evident in the way she is with the dogs. The dogs get a lot of walks, and Emily will take them to places/areas where they can run freely and get good exercise. It's a 1st class service from Emily and Happy Hounds.

“Brewster's new best friend”
Reviewed 17th November 2015
I’m Brewster! They say I’m a terrier-cross but nobody knows how old I am. I’m pretty fussy about humans. Why? Well, I’m a rescue dog who had bad times before I was adopted by my current human pack, although I don’t think they really know all the details and I went blind three years ago. So all in all I find it difficult to trust new people, and there aren’t many humans I really like. But...

When my pack leader, who takes me on walks and watches out for dangerous things like rivers and bicycles, had some surgery recently I discovered Emily and I love her to bits. She and her friend take me on walks (on a lead as I can’t see) with the other dogs and I feel safe. We dogs know which humans we can trust and now I’ve got two more since I started walking with Happy Hounds.

“happy hounds”
Reviewed 15th November 2015
We have used several local dog carers in the Winchester area, all of whom are good, but Happy Hounds are the best. Not only is our lively and slightly neurotic Labrador/Lurcher, Lola, very well cared for, but we are impressed by HH's professionalism. We sometimes meet Emily and her pack when we are walking Lola locally and Lola greets Emily as if she was her favourite person in the world (which she may well be!). That says it all.
