A lot of people ask why the business is called M.A.D Dogs, well my full name is Michelle Anne Dickinson hence M.A.D Dogs.
I’m a Military wife and mum of two and I have taken my love of animals and turned it into a profession.
When we were based in Cyprus for three and a half years, I started out as a foster Mummy for a few different pounds out there. During my time, I have had many fur-babies in my care and given the dogs a second chance at life with a new family, one is now a HM Customs dog. Since my return to the UK I have had the pleasure to met up with some once again and I can see my time was well spent.
Because of my love and passion for dogs, I went on to get my diploma in advanced dog grooming and a veterinary support assistant.
We have now moved to our forever home in Witham St Hughs with my two girls, husband and our three dogs Willow, Maxie & Hope.
I offer day boarding, overnight boarding and grooming.
I am fully insured and registered with Lincolnshire County Council If you have any questions, please just ask. I look forward to meeting you all in the very near future.
Kind Regards, Michelle Dickinson (M.A.D Dogs)

The Emmi Pet German made ultrasonic toothbrush is completely silent, non vibrating and non invasive. We apply the special toothpaste and water, then hold it on the dog's teeth. The ultrasound waves, toothpaste and water work together as a team and break down tartar and plaque and kill bacteria.
Many pet owners have shown that weekly cleaning is sufficient to achieve optimal mouth hygiene. If your pet has a lot of dental plaque / tartar at the beginning, it is recommended to do the cleaning more often and/or more intensively in the first 3 months, each session usually takes around 30 minutes to complete.
£30 this includes an Initial consultation, where we determine if your pet is suitable for teeth cleaning, providing they are you will receive your own pets brush head & your pet will have their first clean.
£15 for any follow up visits

Absolutely brilliant, got a quick appointment for my Jay, fully pampered and he was relaxed, smells and looks amazing!
Definitely be back soon, lovely family.
Ghillie absolutely loves going to stay with Michelle and family and always comes back happy and well looked after! We can relax while we are away knowing that he is in safe hands and being well looked after. Michelle also did a brilliant job grooming him recently and we will definitely be using her in future. If you want a caring, safe environment for your dog we cannot recommend MAD dogs highly enough!
If you want the best for your dogs whilst you are away I can recommend no better place than Mad Dogs in which to leave them. Michelle and John look after them as if they were their own. I have used them time and time again and can’t recommend them enough.
Yes.
In order to comply with licensing regulations I have to ensure that your dog has their vaccination certificate up to date and Flea and worming treatment is current. kennel cough vaccine although it is not a requirement.
If you wish for your dog to be administered the kennel cough vaccine, then this should be done at least 14 days prior to your dogs stay. Dogs presenting with kennel cough will unfortunately be turned away, so I do suggest that you take this into consideration to avoid disrupting your hard earned holiday period!
Your dog will be boarding with my own dog Willow, with your consent your dog may board with other dogs as well.
All visits are prearranged to make sure they are happy here.
Unfortunately no. Your dog must be good natured and I cannot accept dogs that are destructive. I am unable to board bitches that are in season or due to be in season during the boarding period. Due to the new regulations I am unable to board male dogs who have not been castrated.
Before the home boarding period you will be asked to fill in a registration form requiring you to list any ailments and any medications your dog requires. If I have any concerns regarding the health of your dog whilst you are away, I will contact your vet and yourself immediately and keep you updated of the situation. If your veterinary practice is a great distance then in an emergency situation I will take your dog to my own vets.
You should bring enough food for the duration of their stay, medication and anything that you think might help your dog settle more easily (favourite toy or blanket). Their beds where possible, bowls, i will provide towels, poo bags and treats. All dog's wear a holiday ID tag with my contact details whilst they are with me.
It can be stressful to board your pet. If you have any questions or concerns about how we make your pet's home away from home, please reach out. I will get back to you soon!
