The boarding kennel I work at has 2 groomers. A "puppy cut" is one of the basics. Every groomer should know what that is! I think all poodles look great with that cut and most of the poodle parents request it! Poor Reece! I would have peeed on the floor too! And do make sure you get a full viewing of the kennel facilities. Bring your own food, bedding, a toy or two, etc. Make sure if they don't let you bring your own, that they provide a good blanket/bedding. How big are the runs? Check out any broken fencing, wires, splintered wood etc. within the individual kennel and runs. Exercise/playtime?? Heating??? AC/ventilation??? I know, you probably don't have to worry about the cold or heat just now, but good to know for the future. And make sure all your vac's are up to date. If you've never boarded before, you might not have bortadella (kennel cough) Sorry to be a pain. I know you know all of this stuff!!!! So....how'd he turn out!!
