5.0 out of 5 stars Provides practical help and lots of useful tips, 4 Jul 2001
By A Customer
If you are looking for a book that will show you how to earn loads of money running a boarding kennel then this is not the book for you,however, if you wish to run a caring kennels then this is it!.

There are plenty of ideas on how to start up a kennel right through to the best way of completeing the paperwork. Loads of good tips and plenty of stories that anyone working with dogs can relate to.

Although written with American law and guide lines in mind, this book could still be a great asset to your kennels.

5.0 out of 5 stars Essential reading for all kennel owners - my bible, 28 Jun 2008
By Mrs. S. A. Lee-chappell (Dordogne, France) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This book is brilliant. I have read it and re-read it. I also use it for reference when something comes up that I am unsure of how to deal with. Joel McMains talks common sense and really seems to care about what he does. I love this book, and will definately buy anything else he has written.
