If you do decide to board your dog at a kennel, make sure you visit the kennel first to see where your dog will be kept. The best way to do that is to not call ahead. This way, the kennel is not prepared for your visit and you will see how clean they keep the kennels, etc, on a regular basis. I worked 9 years at a kennel and never minded boarding my dogs there. We always kept the small dogs in the cat area where it was much quieter, indoor, and they got a lot more attention. Of course, I prefer to use a pet sitter whenever possible because then my dogs can be kept at home.
