I have been agonizing over boarding my baby while I go on vacation.
I had him all ready to go to a kennel in the area and I went to go visit and EW! I was HORRIFIED! The lady only had about 10 dogs and didn't know ANY of their names. They were kept in an old shed in her backyard. GROSS!
I cried!
Then I called a family friend's kennel of choice. This lady is amazing. Oliver will be kept in the house (not in a kennel) with other little dogs (only about 5 more) and they get tv, couch, and family to keep them company. The little ones stay in this ladies kitchen, laundry area and dining room. They get to run around and play with eachother and the family (just a wife and husband) all day long. They get lots of loving care and are hardly ever left alone. The wife even goes out to the outdoor kennel (where the bigger dogs are kept) on NewYears to watch TV and sit with the dogs to keep them calm in case any of the neighbors set off fireworks. They sound so loving and I feel MUCH better about leaving my baby there.
She des not advertise and all of her business is from word-of-mouth. YEAH
Sooo I feel much better about this whole boarding situation!
