Kennels

Most dog owners, at some time or other, will need to find a boarding kennel for their pets when going on holiday. Think well ahead and book your pet into a kennel as soon as you know when you will be away. Check out the kennel yourself to make sure your pet will be comfortable, and leave your vet's details with the kennel. Ask yourself the following questions:

• Is an up to date vaccination certificate required?

• Are the kennels well staffed?

• Does the staff have a good attitude?

• Is the kennel clean and well maintained?

• Is the dogs' accommodation warm, roomy and clean?

• Are dogs given plenty of supervised exercise?
