Lorraine, our grandmother at Cani'Oc

The Bassin de Thau is a magnificent region to discover, particularly known for its thermal resorts. Whether you come for family tourism or for a spa treatment, a crucial question often arises:what to do with our four-legged companion during our visits or our care?This week, we had the pleasure of welcomingLorraine, a charming 11-year-old Maltese female, in formuladay care. Her owners, who came on vacation to the south to visit their daughter, found at Cani'Oc the ideal solution to enjoy their stay with complete peace of mind. This wonderful meeting reminded us to what extent our structure adapts to all profiles of dogs (from the largest to the smallest, and from the youngest to the oldest), and it is the perfect opportunity to give a nod to another category of vacationers who often encounter this problem: spa guests!

1. Spa guests at the Thermes de Balaruc: Come peacefully with your dog!

Are you planning a spa treatment at the famousBalaruc-les-Bains thermal baths? You no longer have to choose between taking care of your health and leaving your companion behind.

The Bassin de Thau offers a perfect setting to share your vacation outside of your treatment hours. And while you are in a thermal establishment (where our animal friends unfortunately cannot accompany you), Cani'Oc Connection takes over. Thanks to our day care formula at the Mas, your dog also spends a memorable day, punctuated by moments of freedom, adapted games and long naps in the cool.

It is also thanks to the serenity offered by the day care that the masters of Lorraine have warmly recommended our structure to spa friends currently receiving treatment in the region!

2. Our approved Animal Taxi service: Peace of mind at your doorstep

Because we know that a treatment or vacation schedule can be busy, or that not everyone has a suitable vehicle, we have developed an exclusive service: theAnimal Taxi Cani'Oc.

• Professional and regulated:We have all the official licenses required to transport live animals in complete safety.

• Turnkey:We will pick up your companion directly from your home or place of residence (in Sète, Balaruc, or anywhere around the Étang de Thau) and we will bring him back to you at the time agreed together after his day of care.

No need to chase after your care, we manage the logistics for you! Discover all of our services on our page dedicated to [pension in Poussan and accommodation services] (Link to the canioc.fr services page).

3. At Cani'Oc, no discrimination: From the mastiff puppy to the little senior!

We are often asked the question:“Do you take small dogs?”Or“My dog ​​is old, is this suitable?”. The answer is a bigYES. If our own companion is an imposing Saint Bernard, ourfamily pension on the Bassin de Thauis open to all.

The arrival of little Lorraine, 11 years old and small, is perfect proof of this. It was also an opportunity to admire the superb evolution ofArlo, our 6 month old male Saint Bernard. Despite his growth and giant size, Arlo was able to show incredible gentleness and delicacy with her, adapting perfectly to the age and small size of his worthy vacation friend

4. Give them a vacation: Boarding rather than abandonment

Summer is approaching, and the period is unfortunately conducive to an increase in abandonments, a subject that is particularly close to our hearts. We also shared our rant and our advice on video in our YouTube Short:

.

As we often remind you, abandoning your animal is not only an immense human sadness, but it is also criminally reprehensible. Family-friendly and caring solutions exist. Our primary objective at the Mas is that your dog goes frombest vacation you! At our house, no boxes or cages: the dogs live with us, share our daily family life, enjoy a hectare of shaded land under the oaks and receive as many cuddles and attention as at home.

Conclusion: Transparency and complicity on a daily basis

Our philosophy is based on total transparency. We don't just "keep" dogs, we create a real canine and human bond. To reassure owners, we share personalized photos and videos of your little ones' adventures every day (usually in the evening).
