In Taiwan, the dog hotel has developed into a very popular industry, and many luxurious kennels have been designed and constructed. However, when designing a kennel, many issues have to be taken into consideration, such as location, the source of electricity and water supply, sewage treatment, sun exposure or precautions for special weather conditions, reception rooms, staff lounges, preparation rooms, showers and storage rooms. All of these items need to be taken into account when kennels are designed. Furthermore, dog management issues and routine works such as cleaning, dispersing, feeding, bathing and claw clipping, and the administration of monthly preventive heartworm and flea medication, and annual injections for internal parasites are also important and to should be properly arranged.
