Hello,

My parents have a lab, and a 2 month trip away planned.

The previous plan of someone else looking after him has fallen through so there's a bit of a problem.

Are there boarding kennels that are geared up for long term stays? Or any other solutions / ideas that we haven't considered?

Thanks

there are plenty of people out there that do dog boarding in their own house, this i feel would be a far better option for the time that is needed,
contact somelocal vets and ask them for details of home boarding places or try this

IMHO Boarding kennels long term would be dreadful
Not all Boarding Kennels are created equal though...

A dog is a pack animal far better-off boarded in a home environment.

This may cost, however.
