Be careful to choose a professional agency for dog boarding

A preliminary inspection is definitely indispensable! Don't blindly pursue ultra-low prices. What's important now is cost-effectiveness. You might as well visit on the spot before you need foster care.

Today’s pet foster care institutions are roughly divided into three types: family foster care, pet foster care hotels, and traditional foster care shops (pet shops).
Family-style foster care is the current craze for pet foster care. This foster care method can better improve the quality of life of pets. Because the owners of foster homes basically have their own pets, you don’t have to worry about them not taking good care of your baby. Moreover, they are fed scientifically and refuse to be kept in cages, allowing pets to enjoy the holidays as if they were at home.

Hotel-style foster care should have the following conditions: one cage for one pet, clean environment, daily disinfection and experienced staff. If pets feel uncomfortable after moving in, the professional staff will know how to comfort them. Compared with home foster care, hotel foster care can provide pets with more professional care. Although the price is slightly more expensive, the pet's health can be very well protected.

Traditional foster care shops (pet shops) are a more convenient form. The owner only needs to choose a pet store nearby and take the pet there! However, there are many strange pets coming in and out of the pet store every day, and the sanitary environment is relatively poor. If the staff is particularly busy, they may not take good care of the pets.

When dog boarding, you should pay attention to the pet's working and resting time in the fostering agency

If you choose hotel-style fostering, you must know their working and resting time in advance! Because most professional boarding hotels have unified work and rest schedules, it is best for owners to find out in advance and feed and walk their pets at this time one week before boarding so that they can fully adapt.
Some foster care facilities also adopt a free-range approach, with large grassy areas for dogs to play. Owners need to consider whether to prepare toys for their dogs, and whether the toys provided by the foster care agency are safe, etc.

When dog boarding, you need to prepare some "personal belongings" for your pet.

The most commonly used mats, water bowls and rice bowls for pets at home can all be placed with the pet in the foster care institution. These personal items with its own flavor will make it feel at ease.
As for food, owners can choose meals prepared by the foster care agency, or they can bring their own. It is recommended to bring your own food here, because a sudden change of food can also cause some gastrointestinal problems in pets.

Bathe your pet before fostering it

Bathing your pet before fostering it can ensure that the pet is clean throughout the fostering period, and it also considers the overall environment of the fostering institution.. No one wants to get along with their pets with "dirty" babies.

When dog boarding, attention should be paid to ensuring the health of the pet.

If the pet is suffering from an infectious disease, it is not suitable for boarding, otherwise a group of pets will suffer. When fostering, be sure to inform the staff about the dog's physical condition, presence of allergens, etc. It is best to write it down and make it into a small card and give it to the staff.
Finally, I would like to advise all owners to get vaccinated! Only after being vaccinated can the dog have good immunity and be able to play more highly with other dogs.
