Because it looked nice on the web - I thought it would be a good place to leave my dog there for 2 weeks. Of course I needed her to approve, and decided to let her spend one night and then I will see how it was for her.
I took her there and they didn't check the pet passport to see if she had her vaccinations or anything, just put her in a tiled cell and shut the door.
I asked how often she gets to go out, they said they would let her outdoors twice a day, adding up to one hour, but of course not today as it is raining...
I wondered if I am oversensitive about my dog and decided to leave her there. Before getting to Zurich I turned around and drove back. As they are closed for a really long lunch I had to wait.
My dog was very relieved to see me and was pulling towards the car like never before.
I ABSOLUTELY HATE THE PLACE
But now I had a problem - dogless vacation coming up without a good vacation home for my dog. At that point I had made up my mind to never book another vacation without my dog.
Dogs are for life and all that...
But then...
I found the pet hotel. A wonderful, loving, 200% animal oriented woman named Nusta Trachsel who runs exactly that, a hotel for pets. She does not accept too many animals, they live with the family. She will want to take your dog for one day with you picking her up in the evening and another time when the dog spends the night!
You will need to make an appointment and keep it, be on time, because she will need to be there to introduce your dog to the pack. She will take them for long walks, if your dog can't walk too long she has a cart that the stronger dogs can pull. in the summer they go to the lake to swim.
My dog absolutely loves it she has been there for 10 days twice and I will take her there sometimes just as a treat.
I was uncertain if I should post this, as I always want a space for my dog to be available, but then Nusta is so wonderful with my dog, all dogs should have the same vacation. It is about 45 minutes drive by car and not easy to get to by public transport, but I would drive all day to allow my dog to be there.
