This is a tough topic for me but it is something I think should be discussed: My pet is getting old and its health is going downhill despite all my efforts to provide food, medicine and veterinary care. What are the effects of boarding my pet with health issues that are deteriorating? What happens when my pet passes while being boarded? It is tough to have an elderly pet. I have 4 that are getting old and do not look forward to the time when their health starts to decline. |

It is a great time of year isn't it. The seasons are changing, weather is getting cooler and Halloween will soon be here. Time to dress up our pets and take them out for a stroll. If you are dressing your pets for Halloween send us a picture. We'd love to post this to our website. Just email the picture to wckpets@wckpets.com. It is fun to dress our pets, but we must do so with caution. Consider the following when choosing your costume: Are there buttons and things that my pet can possibly chew off and ingest? |

In order to board at World Class Kennels, puppies must have had all their Distemper-Parvo vaccines and their bordetella vaccines (2). Most vets have given the series of 4 (DHLPP) shots by the time the puppies are 3-4 months old. During that time they should have had at least one or two Bordetella Vaccines (one vaccine and one booster). Some vets do not give a rabies vaccine until the dogs are at least 4 months old. I am mostly concerned with the DHLPP and BORDETELLA vaccines. |

When you take your pets to board at a boarding facility, do you see the same familiar faces or do you see new faces all the time? I am so blessed to have good, dependable employees working in the kennel. Christy & Liz have been here for almost 4 years. You will always see one of them here regardless of which day of the week you arrive or depart. They love what they do and just as I do, they get attached to the pets we board and love them just as much as you do. |

Wow!! Can you believe this heat? I don't remember any summer as hot and humid as this one has been and it seems we can look forward to more of these hot days. When the weather is this hot, we get the dogs out early for their morning turns in the play yards. Once it gets really hot they are closed inside and stay cool in the air conditioning. We know that many of the dogs like the bulldogs and little flat-faced dogs don't do well in extreme heat so we don't take them out during the heat of the day. |

Have you ever been to a boarding kennel that wouldn't allow you to see where your pet will be boarded? I guess the first thing I would ask is why not? My second thought would be "What do they have to hide?" At World Class Kennels we encourage you to bring your dogs (as long as they are up to date on all required vaccinations) and walk around, get familiar with our facility, and talk to our staff. We feel it is important for you to know where your pets will be living while in our care. |
