I have a small dog boarding facility on three acres. Four and six foot chain link fencing, plenty of room to run. The dogs are kept kenneled in my home and get plenty of socialization along with 24-by-7 loving care. Mostly I board the dogs and puppies I sell to homes within driving distance. But I also will accept well socialized family pets from in the area or that are visiting the area that are up to date on all their vacccinations. The dogs are not kept outside in runs. They sleep in the house (crated) and will get let outside to play with dogs and puppies around there same age.
