Anyone who has a much loved pet and who is due to travel away from home, should try out dog boarding in Snohomish or dog boarding in Bellevue as excellent places to leave their pampered pooches. These places cater for pets which cannot be left alone but they also offer some value added services thrown in as well.

Many people think that kennels are just places to dump their pet. But these days there is far more on offer than that. Training can be undertaken which will allow the pooch to be shown correct behavior for when the owner comes back to collect them.

For example, many pooches will have some very bad habits that the owner just does not have the heart to break. This can include begging at the table when people are eating, or perhaps jumping up at the owner when they come in from work. Even not allowing the spouse to kiss the owner is the problem with some pets when they feel like they are the alpha male in the family. However, all these habits can be broken very quickly by these experts who know the psychology of the animals.

Indeed, the owners themselves will also receive some training when they come to pick up their pet so that they can reinforce the training on home ground. Although owners may think that they are doing the right thing most of the time, it is unfortunate that most of us will just be too soft for our own good and this is where the kennels come in to sort out the problems.

Even if the pet is perfectly behaved, they may still need the company of other pets to get them familiar with their behavior. Being social animals makes them much more rounded individuals and they will be able to play and have fun with the other animals without there being a problem with bad tempers or biting etc.

After learning to play with the others, they will also be taken for a bath and brush up so that the owner gets a clean and fresh animal to take home with them. This is particularly good for those who have a hard time getting them into water and then washing them. At the kennels, they are shown how to do this with ease and make it a fun experience for the pet too so there will be no more headaches.

Finally, realizing that the pet is sometimes scared of others will reinforce the action of letting them stay at the kennel for some time. Owners sometimes feel a little nervous or selfish about putting their pets where it is unfamiliar. But there is no need to worry because the pet gets the best of everything while they are there. The attention, food and surroundings are the best and the pet will soon come to realize that it has not been abandoned. Even owners are surprised that their pet no longer exhibits nervous tendencies and their behavior is improved enormously over time.
