Absolute Gun Dogs

I have taken my German shorthair pointer several times now, once even over the long Christmas haul. Most of the time when I picked her up, she was excited to be going home, and was asleep in the car before we made it back to town. I was glad she was worn out, as I would request she be taken out with the gun dogs that train in the field. She would have some scratches or scabs here and there, which I attributed to her being taken out with the field dogs. This past weekend, she caught kennel cough from here. When I called Absolute to inform them (and give them a chance to make the situation right), they admitted several other dogs caught it as well. Nothing was offered for the hassle. I was disappointed that they treat kennel cough as if it is a risk of taking a dog to a kennel. I understand that that is in fact a risk, but would have expected higher standards. I'm now concerned about bringing my dog there again, especially since they raised their boarding costs.
