I worked with stuart for over 3months a few years ago and i can not believe the story you have published. Has anyone thought that he might not of had help from the authority that put them there and the dogs could of been vicious towards him and his workers, Stuart had a dog in his care when i was there and it was her 1st time at the kennels and was very nervous and wouldn't eat so on the 2nd day of not eating stuart went to asda and bought a full chicken already cooked and gave that to her and she finally started eating, so to me that is not a person who could be cruel to that extent. Plus all the dogs i helped look after always had bedding and that was washed regulary, he even had a dog there on long boarding as her owner was in a nursing home and she was treated brillantly and he even took the dog to see her owner on several occassions, and he wasn't paid for that.

   Eight years ago I put both my dogs into these kennels (following recommendations from Gourleys). When we collected our girls, one of them had a nasty eye infection. We were upset and asked the owner (Stuart) what was wrong with her. To our amazement he wasn't even aware of her condition. I have since warned people against using this kennels.
