The boarding kennel marketplace continues to expand for cats and dogs. Animal owners need need help to choose the right facility for their pet, regardless of whether its for daycare or for an extended stay. Joseph H. Kinnarney, DVM, MS, gives questions to ask when selecting a boarding kennel:
- What vaccinations do you require?
- Can I see where my pet will stay?
- What would you do if a pet had a serious medical issue on a Sunday?
- Do the dogs get to socialize with one another?
- Where do cats stay?
- What do you do if an animal has trouble adjusting to the kennel?
- Are you licensed?
