Dog daycare provider set to expand to North West London following acquisition

Dog day care provider Bruce’s has taken ownership of the second largest doggy day care in the UK.

The addition of Buddies to Bruce’s Doggy Day Care’s portfolio of centres will see its services expand to Northwest London and Hertfordshire as its eighth centre prior to wider expansion in 2022.

All current Buddies staff have been retained as part of the deal and Buddies will continue to operate independently under the Buddies name during the initial transition period.

Tom Senior, owner of Buddies said: “As I know Bruce personally, I know that he and the rest of his team, like us, have the best interests of the dogs at heart.

“I am extremely proud of everything that Buddies has become and achieved over the years, the absolutely wonderful and caring team of people we have and all of the joy we bring to our dogs’ lives. I’m delighted that Bruce’s will be taking over the steering of the ship alongside our existing team.”

Bruce Casalis, founder and owner of Bruce’s said: “This marks the next phase of growth in our journey. We’re really excited about the prospect of being able to take the Bruce’s philosophy and ethos to even more dogs and their families.

“Having known and worked closely with Tom over the last 8 years, his passion and dedication to dogs makes this the perfect fit and we can’t wait to welcome Buddies to the Bruce’s family.”
