'An absolute goldmine of information, guidance and common sense....an invaluable reference book' Kennel Gazette
Product Description
Praise and reviews include: "An absolute goldmine of information, guidance and common sense...an invaluable reference book" - "Kennel Gazette". "Highly informative and well researched...it is highly recommended" - "Dogs Monthly". "A splendid book which should answer all the questions new and prospective kennel owners want to ask" - "Our Dogs". Those who love animals often aspire to earning a living through looking after them. This book can help turn that dream into a reality. Fully revised and updated by animal care expert David Cavill, based on the original work by Sheila Zabawa, this new edition provides comprehensive advice on every aspect of running a boarding kennel, including: finding a property; statutory requirements; finance and running costs; health matters; feeding the boarders; kennel staff; kennel buildings; and marketing the business. With an increasing demand for quality kennel accommodation for dogs and cats, a good boarding kennel is a sound investment and can provide a good income if run efficiently. This guide, the only one of its kind available, is essential reading for anyone who is starting out in the business and no one should consider running a boarding kennel until they have read it thoroughly.

(American) Buyer Beware, Mar 14 2005
By Paul F. Confrey - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Running Your Own Boarding Kennels (Paperback)
This book is of limited value to American kennel owners. Imagine my surprise when I opened this guide and was referred to Her Majesty's Customs and Excise Tax for VAT. Six of 11 Chapters are specific to the U.K., and the references in the two appendices will do little good unless your target audience is British expats.I urge Mr. Cavill to consider drafting a U.S. edition, and Amazon should make clear that this is a U.K. publication.

take the last review with a pinch of salt!, July 21 2005
By Mr. Jonathan R. Pascall - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Running Your Own Boarding Kennels (Paperback)
True this book is written by an Englishman.SO WHAT?
Replace references to 'HM' with 'Federal...'
If the info in the book is not relevant to the US, at least the book has drawn awareness to this aspect, and the correct data can be quickly found on the internet. Thus the book is almost as valuable to an American as it is to a Brit.
If the rest of the world buy hundreds of thousands of books written for an American market, surely America can do the equivalent?
Listmania!
