What to Look For When Choosing A Boarding Kennel For Your Dog

If you're going away for a night, a week, or
months at a time and you need a quality boarding
kennel service to look after your dog then you
may want to consider a few tips on what to look
for when deciding who to go with.

Boarding kennels are a great option for many
owners as it not only takes a degree of stress
out of your trip, it also relieves stress on your
dog by eliminating the need for long car or plane
rides and allows your dog to stay in a place
where they will be as welcome as you are at your
hotel.

There are many boarding kennel organisations to
choose from and while it may seem to make sense
to simply go with the kennel closest to your
home, if you truly love your dog and want the
best for them while you're away you would be wise
to have a read of the following pointers for
finding the best boarding kennel for your dog and
you.

- Are the operators dog lovers? - This may seem
like an obvious question but it is one that must
be asked and could very well be the most
important for you and your dog. Many operators of
boarding kennels are business people first and
foremost, their primary concern is the bottom
line and your dog's health and wellbeing is
secondary. Find a team of dog lovers and you can
be sure they will look after your pooch with the
greatest of love and care.

- Be sure to check the conditions- Before
committing to a boarding kennel for your dog make
sure you take the time and go and inspect the
premises for yourself. Find out where your dog
will be sleeping and ask questions about sleeping
arrangements, play time, special services
provided and the like.

- Ask a friend, neighbour or veterinarian about
their experience - Testimonials are far better
than the advertising that can be done by bigger
shelters. Veterinarians are especially helpful
because they will have an intimate knowledge of
the community.

- Does the kennel require vaccinations? - This is
a big one as it can mean the difference between
your dog coming home as healthy as you left them
or coming back riddled with disease. Only take
your dog to kennels that insist upon
vaccinations.

These are just a few of the tips that will help
to steer you toward a great kennel experience for
you and your dog. Take the time and enjoy the
knowledge that your dog is in safe hands so you
can better enjoy your time away.
