To become successful, a prospective kennel owner must know how to select or design a suitable facility. This involves familiarity with real estate, architecture, construction, enclosures, materials, fencing, plumbing, heating, lighting, air-conditioning, waste disposal, supplies, and the challenges involved in day-to-day operations with the pets and staff. Establishing good customer relations, prevention and treatment of common pet diseases, preparation of nutritious foods, and increasing kennel profits by offering additional pet services are all emphasized.

Updated for 2005 and beyond, pet industry authority, Sam Kohl, provides you with all the essential information you need to own, operate, and manage a world-class boarding kennel.

Now included in this indespensible guide to kennel management are architectural plans for eleven different kennel layouts and designs.
