Newflands is a pet boarding service on Churchill Road in Tuakau, Pukekawa, Franklin, combining a private bookable dog park, doggie staycation boarding, Timothy's Lodge cattery, and a swim training centre. A private, bookable dog park gives an owner exclusive time on the grounds without other dogs around, which suits a nervous or reactive dog better than a shared off-lead park where you can't control who else shows up. Swim training adds exercise that's easier on joints than running, useful for fitness and older or recovering dogs, so it's worth asking how sessions are supervised before booking one in. Boarding that includes access to a dog park or pool, rather than a kennel run, means a dog gets exercise built into a stay rather than sitting around most of the day. Keeping cats in a separate cattery matters too, since cats find being near dogs stressful. At Tuakau, Newflands brings that range of dog and cat care together on one property.
