Leaving my dog in the kennels?

[SneakyBanana]

Well iam going away to Florida in two weeks for 3 weeks and i have to leave my dog into a kennel during that time, the problem is he has never slept anywhere but my bed since i got him 2 years ago and he hates dogs.

Has anyone been in the same situation, was your dog fine?

He is a 2yr old staffordshire bull terrier.

You got 2 weeks...Let him play with other dogs. He'll get abit used to other dogs then

After leaving college at 17 I worked in kennels for a few months. I think if your dog isn't good with other dog, he might not like it. I would personally look for someone that could either house sit your dog or look after him, if that isn't an option then look for a kennels where you know your dog will be well looked after. The best kennels are the ones that have been recommender to you.

I always wanted a Dog, but I work irregular hours, so lack of time always held me back, no sense in getting a Doggie if I can't play around with it, or give it the attention it needs and requires. One day, one day I will have my own Dog. And it will be a Berner Senner. :3

~Isn't this the cutest, manliest, bravest, cudliest litte doggie ever?

My family is leaving for Queensland for 10 days this Christmas, and we are leaving the cat and dog in kennels, so I feel you.

My family has used a kennel in NSW or Queensland, not sure, and it is huge, the pets came back healthier!

I think it just depends on the actual kennel.

Good luck tho, I hope it turns out well, I understand how you feel.
