I have worked with dogs and cats in a kennel environment for over four years. I have 2 extra bedrooms that the animals can enjoy rather than sleeping in a cage. I live on a quiet road so not a lot of noise to stress the animals out more than what they are in new situations. I also have 2 outside pens that were specially built so there is more than enough room for them to run around to get exercise and a insulated dog house in the pen. While working in the kennel I was the kennel technician that specially dealt with the more aggressive dogs because I believe that its about respecting the animal just as much as the animal ahould respect you.
