This spring, my boyfriend and I will be going to New York City for a week long trip. We will not be taking Mojo with us, as it would not be feasible. I have decided he will have to be boarded because I do not trust my family to take proper care of Mojo, as they, nor my friends, are dog people or even really care for dogs. **
While I have boarded Mojo for a night at his vet's in the past, I have moved to another state and do not know my new vet well enough to board Mojo with him. So I am trying to find an appropriate kennel for my dog...
I am nervous about boarding him for a long period of time at a kennel. I have heard more than a few horror stories about people's dogs being lost, stolen, picking up an illness, or even hurt while being boarded.
Does anyone have any advice for me in what I should look for in a kennel? What questions i should ask? And is it too early to start looking for the kennel that will ultimately be carnig for my dog while I am away?
Any help would be appreciated!
**(bottom line is I am REALLY protective and picky of Mojo's care.)
