Editorial Review:

Product Description:
Kennels are important for a wide variety of reasons. Pet owners frequently need them as boarding facilities during vacations, periods of upheaval or transition or whenever it becomes impractical for a cat or dog to be left at home. Serious enthusiasts need practical facilities for dealing with multiple animals and turn to kenneling to meet their requirements. Hobby kennels frequently become professional ventures offering boarding and grooming services while others are begun as businesses stressing pet boarding or housing show animals.

If you have a serious interest in kennels, this valuable reference, by one of America's most respected authorities on the subject, will be your indispensible guide whether you are building, buying or converting part of your home as an animal environment.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - A gentle initiation into the kennel world
Someone bought me this book on kennel management and as I've read the others on the market, at first glance I thought it would be of no interest and sadly a waste of their money. But I enjoyed it.

This book might be good as a simple review for children interested in kennels. I found it to be very simplistic and filled with a lot of "common sense" information. If you are really interested in reading it, check your local library, it is just not worth the money.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - A complete waste of money as a reference book.
A major disappointment for the serious kennel builder. Its only merit, perhaps, is as a starting point for further research in kennel design and management. It has very, very few useful tips or practical advice a kennel builder needs to make educated decisions when constructing or modifying a kennel. Management suggestions are simplistic at best and leave the reader with more questions than answers. Provides almost no advice in the most practical and crucial areas such as what kinds of paint and ... Read More
