Mas1981 Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 Thanks showdog It is probably the long weekend I am looking at, so I guess I had better start looking around Didn't think I'd have to do it this soon Can kennels usually accommodate having both of my girls in the same kennel? They (and more probably I) would cope better if they got to stay together. Are u going on a holiday?? I would offer to have them but Mason would bug them too much!

They (and more probably I) would cope better if they got to stay together. Kennels should be up front if they can not accomadate the 2 in one run,varying councils have different regulations for what size dogs.\ can go in what size runs we certainly can house dogs of that size & would never seperate . The long weekend goes very quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, though I don't think I could palm them off to you anyway, 3 Labs in your house would drive you insane and I'd feel terribly guilty!

RubyStar Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 My two (at the time) stayed at showdog's kennels, in the same kennel, a few years back. I don't think the prices have changed since then either Kennels should be up front if they can not accomadate the 2 in one run,varying councils have different regulations for what size dogs.\ can go in what size runs we certainly can house dogs of that size & would never seperate .

Mas1981 Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 I am going to have a huge hassle if I ever go away, the vets are recommending not to vaccinate him only titre test as his allergies are really bad so I dont think any kennels would ever take him, would need to get a house sitter if we needed to go away, the only time I would leave him is if we had a family emergency back home.

Golden Rules Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 (edited) I am going to have a huge hassle if I ever go away, the vets are recommending not to vaccinate him only titre test as his allergies are really bad so I dont think any kennels would ever take him, would need to get a house sitter if we needed to go away, the only time I would leave him is if we had a family emergency back home. Actually, there are a few places that will accept titre tests but if worse came to worst, I'm sure one of your doggy friends could help out Edited June 18, 2010 by Golden Rules Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fetchindawgs Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 Hey Rubystar, how did you enjoy your retrieving weekend away ? Wasn't all that bad was it ? I think your Ruby is gorgeous. So bright and boucy; just my type of Lab. I hope you get to do some retrieving with her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bedazzledx2 Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 There are a few kennels in Perth that will accept titre tests. I would get on to it soonish though and keep your records so your not caught short if you ever need to board him unexpectedly. I am going to have a huge hassle if I ever go away, the vets are recommending not to vaccinate him only titre test as his allergies are really bad so I dont think any kennels would ever take him, would need to get a house sitter if we needed to go away, the only time I would leave him is if we had a family emergency back home.

He is not due for his vaccines until July, would i do the titre then or before, I am not sure exactly how it all works except that it measures antibodies??

I would get the titre test done and a letter from your vet stating Your dog stating this and that they have imunity! My vet was quite happy to do this for kenneling and my dog club if nesessary. Our kennel (the one we use that is) generally accept titre test, which I think is becomming the norm! Rat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rat Thanks Rat, I will do so, I cant even think about leaving him in a boarding facility but if there is an emergency etc I may have to, dont know how he would get on as he only eats raw etc and he has allergies.

You should be able to find a kennel that will feed only your food! Or one that feeds raw. You may be pleasantly surprised when you make some inquiries. Good luck!

RubyStar Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 Candice, you know either me or GR would have Mason in an emergency, plus others would too I'm sure. Never be afraid to ask me ok? Can anyone recommend a kennel that accept titre testing or is this something I will need to hunt out by calling each place up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
