The Complete Spa Experience

All of our guests receive special attention. If you would really like us to pamper your dog, the ultimate experience is a dog massage. Your dog will receive a 45 minute session from our colleagues, trained by Wendy Kavanagh, author of Dog Massage, director of the London College of Massage and editor of Massage World magazine.

The first session includes a copy of Wendy's superb book so you can continue the pampering at home. We also offer luxury grooming services, so your dog can have a complete spa experience.

The food. Every meal served here was worked out from the nutritional principles Marjorie went on to write down, so it can be cooked at home. Cooking for Dogs →

The Ritz Canine. The archive of the dog spa next door — hydrotherapy, massage and acupuncture. Visit it →
