A Little About Teddy
Teddy is a handsome black Labrador Retriever who will be turning five this July. He’s been part of the family since he was just ten weeks old, and from the very beginning, he’s brought plenty of love (and energy!) into their lives.
Described as extremely affectionate, food-loving, and a little boisterous at times, Teddy is full of personality. He thrives on attention and companionship, and his playful, lively nature means there’s never a dull moment when he’s around.
Life at Rags & Bert’s
Teddy’s family chose the Dog Hotel at Rags & Bert’s for one very important reason — the experience is so much more than a traditional kennel stay.
Unlike more conventional setups, where dogs may spend most of their time in a kennel with limited exercise, Teddy gets to be part of the wider daycare group during the day. That means plenty of stimulation, interaction, and company — something that makes a huge difference for a sociable dog like him.
This approach has given his family real peace of mind. Knowing that Teddy is active, engaged, and surrounded by other dogs throughout the day makes leaving him that much easier.
And Teddy certainly seems to agree — he has settled in really well and clearly enjoys his stays. In fact, he’s always very keen to get through the door when he arrives!
Communication is another highlight for his family. Regular updates and photos provide reassurance that he’s happy and thriving, making the whole experience feel much more personal and connected.
life outside R&B's
At home, Teddy is a loving and affectionate companion who enjoys being around his family as much as possible. His enthusiasm for food is well known, and his boisterous side keeps everyone on their toes — but it’s all part of his charm.
Final Thoughts
For Teddy’s family, Rags & Bert’s offers a level of care that stands out from more traditional options:
“The main reason we chose the Dog Hotel is that Teddy joins the daycare dogs during the day, so he has lots of stimulation and company. Other kennels we’ve used just offer short exercise periods, and this is so much better. It makes us feel much happier about leaving him.
He’s settled in really well, is always keen to go in, and the communication is excellent — we get regular updates and pictures. We would definitely recommend the Dog Hotel to other owners.”
Team Reflections
The Rags & Bert’s team love having him stay:
“Teddy is such a big, affectionate boy with a wonderful personality! He brings so much energy and enthusiasm, and it’s lovely to see how much he enjoys being part of the group. He’s always excited to come in, and it’s a pleasure having him with us.”
