What are the best Dog Boarding centers in the area?

How do you find the best dog boarding kennel when you need those days when you must level for that trip that can not include your beloved pet.

I think the most important quality of the best dog boarding centers is that they truly care about dogs!  If it’s just a business then they won’t just pass along the emotional feelings your dog needs during your absence.  A good place to start the process is by asking your veterinarian, groomer, other dog-owning friends, or neighbors for the names of boarding kennels or dog sitters they recommend.

Then do your homework by reading reviews, and visiting the boarding kennel to see where your dog will be staying. You may be amazed to find that you go from the old-style standard dog kennel to luxury dog condos.  I have personally seen spots where they provide the pup with a Love seat, TV, and play toys so they feel right at home.   Obviously the more elaborate of care your dog receives the equal costs that could be involved.  So it depends on how your dog does while you are away or how spoiled you want them to feel. You may see it as a personal vacation for them.  Some kennels offer doggie activities and play time like a summer camp for dogs.

One place not often checked is court records, and it’s the best place to avoid the most devastating stays.  Simply do a public search of court records of the facility to see if anyone has filed suit against the dog kennel and see if you can see the reason.   Even lawsuits regarding nonpayment is good because you may find that the facility is poorly run or managed which could lead to less than ideal care.

Nothing is going to beat that one-on-one attention that can be obtained at some of the best kennels in the area.  So choose wisely and budget accordingly.  Also, keep in mind there are estimated to be some 69 million households with dogs, and often not enough kennels for the care these beloved family members have.  So do not wait till the last minute to schedule your Dog Kennel slot.
