This is the inside of one of the kennels at Sugarbear’s Sweet Retreat. There is polyaspartic flooring throughout the facility that makes cleaning much easier and less susceptible to disease. In addition, the drains make cleaning easier. The bottom walls of all the kennels are sealed off from each other.
