They are much happier in a kennel with other dogs for a few days, than they are home with a stranger they dont know.

I hate that people hear of a few bad kennels and automaticly assume that all kennels are the same. My dogs vet reccomends certain kennels for owners that she deals with and knows are reputable. I'd rather them then a 'friend' I need to pay to half ass look after my dog.

We always leave the dogs with friends. Said friends do the same with us. It's not fun having 4 dogs in a house, but it beats paying strangers to look after my dogs.
