Traveling? Do not put your dog in a canine prison

Traveling? Do not put your dog in a canine prison

Important tips:

  • Get a reliable friend and a reputable house sitter to look after your pets.
  • Ask people and get references
  • Use boarding kennels as the last resort
  • Do not board at a veterinary clinic. Sick and healthy animals do not belong together.
  • The latest trends are home like or farm boarding facilities. These may be a good alternative for a social dog but a less social or frightened dog may go through the ringer.
  • Look for a quiet, clean and well run “free range” boarding facility as opposed to cages and pens.
  • Many dogs get very stressed and spend all day barking and clawing at the door.
  • If you are planning your holiday and can travel by car, take Fido along.
  • Sheba may prefer staying at home unless you live with the rare cat that likes to travel.

Together, we can make the world a better place for animals.
