I've pretty much decided I will board Mia when we go to FL in late June/July for 1 week. We just got back from the facility -
www.enchantmentpetresort.com .
She will be groomed there on Sunday afternoon and start classes on the 28th to help get her used to the people/place.
I was impressed that you COULD NOT smell ANYTHING similar to a pet odor and no chemical odors either.
She will have a 4x6' "room" with heated/cooled floors. Air in the room totally circulates every 12 sec. Food, 2x day playtime 1 on 1 with a handler and treats for $25/day. They also provide "insurance" up to $350 if she catches anything from another animal/person. They are VERY picky on needing ALL medical records before they will accept a dog for anything and the people I've talked to say they've never caught anything.
While it's not Home, I feel pretty good about it.
They feed FLINT RIVER RANCH food - any experiences with it. They also sell many other premium brands.
TIA
Julie
