If you have never put your dog into a boarding kennel before, or perhaps you are unhappy with your existing kennel, then you must wonder how to choose the best accommodation possible. For the first time UK dog owners can easily share information about boarding kennels in their area thanks to new website – http://www.rateakennel.co.uk. “I always agonised about where to send my dogs,” admits site owner Jay Neill. “A preliminary visit can help settle some of the concerns, but what I really wanted to hear were testimonials from other dog owners who had used that kennel.” “RateaKennel.co.uk is unlike other dog kennel directories on the web in that it allows owners to rate and review kennels that they have used, passing that information on to other concerned dog lovers.” Dog owners can rate a kennel using four key criteria – cleanliness, friendliness, value and dog stimulation. They can also write a short review, giving other owners the opportunity to learn why they love a kennel, or why they would never use it again. “I wish that a website like RateaKennel.co.uk had been around several years ago,” says Jay. “It might have prevented an unpleasant experience for my older dog if I had been forewarned about one of the kennels I’ve tried.” Posters here at UnderstandingAnimals.com seem to love the idea. “What a fantastic idea, I'm shocked it's not been done before as it's such a good thing to do,” said one poster from Brighton. Overseas members are just as enthusiastic, albeit frustrated. “What a fantastic idea! Wish you could do this for Australia!” said a poster from down under. “That is a cool idea and it would be great if we could do New Zealand as well,” wrote another.
