I think it depends on the place. When I had to board Missy, I did it usually at the vets (where they spoil her rotten) and once at a kennel when I had not had her very long and the vet did not have room (mistake on my part -- she acted like she had done something wrong to make me leave her there, but she got over that quickly). Mostly, she just slept more when she got home. She does that even now when she comes home from my friends' house after they take care of her...they have other dogs, and she keeps busier) I don't think they get as much good sleep as they do at home.
