Get recommendations. Ask friends, neighbors, co-workers, vets, groomers, trainers, or other dog professionals you trust. 2. Visit. Ask to see ALL the places where your dog will be spending time, including his room for the night and the exercise yard. 3. Assess the pack. The staff should be able to get your dog focused on what is there for him – and not leave him mourning over the fact that you left. 4. Ask questions about discipline, conflict resolution, exercise and emergency procedure. Remember, YOU are the client and WE (boarding kennels) want your business. 5. Prepare. Check vaccination requirements. 6. Trust your instincts. If something just doesn't feel right, find another facility. You want to feel confident that your pet will be safe and comfortable while you are away. New Doe Creek Kennels clients are welcome and encouraged to bring their dogs for a free full-day of daycare to try us out. Also, please visit our amenities, boarding, and daycare pages for pictures and information. Would you rather keep your dogs home? We recommend Hometown Critter Care, currently serving Giles County.	Planning a vacation to historic Mountain Lake Hotel or picturesque Inn at Riverbend Bed and Breakfast? Bring your dogs! We are located less than four miles from Mountain Lake, and just ten miles from Inn at Riverbend. We offer convenient drop-off and pick-up times throughout the day, so if you're missing your dogs, or planning something they'd enjoy, you can take them along. (We recommend a hike to the Cascades waterfall or a canoe trip along the New River.) Don't worry, though, if you can't spend the day with them. They'll have hours of playtime and lots of fun on vacation here with us. Please see our amenities page for details and our daycare and boarding pages for our daily schedule. Don't forget to make a reservation!
