Hi, I've been coming here for months getting lots of good info. for our trip to California, which is finally within sight. I am having some trouble, however, finding a kennel. I've done some searches but I'm finding kind of 'fancy' ones. He won't be requiring any spa treatments while he's there and I'd rather not have to spend a morning being interviewed and having him evaluated to see if he's OK for their "cage-free environment". So I'm hoping a local could suggest a regular kennel where I can drop him off for a few hours without a lot of hoopla. We're staying in Hollywood and I want to tour Warner Bros. studios and see the Ellen Show. So anything in these areas would be most convenient. Thank you in advance.

One option is to check with a local vet re boarding.

Thanks, I'll do a search for vets. I didn't think of that.

My pups travel with me and sometimes stay in the "fancy" places and sometimes go to "day camp" at a local vet. At the vet, they are in just a regular kennel/crate/run.

If your plans include time after the vet hours, it will have to be an overnight stay.

Also, most parks (Disney, etc) offer kennels on their properties while you are on-site.

Check with Laurel Pet Hospital. http://www.laurelpethospital.com/sit...72377_Home.pml
If they can't help you, I am certain they can make suggestions convenient to the area you will require.
