Hi! I'm from Bel Air too. We have never boarded Cooper but I had boarded our beagle Wendy and Mugzy, our last boxer, at Bel Air Veterinary Hospital, Dr. Richard Cook. I was always pleased with the quality of care that they gave. I can not say enough great things about Dr. Cook. There is of course Hickory veterinary and Kennel and Churchville Vet Clinic and Kennel. My brother boards his ridgeback at Churchville and my inlaws board their beagle there also, both are very happy with them. None of these dogs have seperation anxiety. Maybe a petsitting service would be a better idea. I really do not have experience with this sort of thing.
Welcome to the board! I see you have 543 in you name, do you live near there?
