Vaccines needed: Rabies, Distemper/Parvo(DHPP, DAPP or DHLPP), Influenza, and Bordetella. The Leptospirosis vaccination is highly recommended but not required.

Question 3

Can my dogs stay in the same room together?

Accepted Answer

Yes! As long as they already live together at home, and are able to eat their meals in the same space without needing to be separated. They will also be able to go outside and play together each time, unless occasionally they would like to try out different playgroups for different energy levels!

If at any point there are aggression problems between dogs staying together while boarding, we reserve the right to separate them into different rooms for their safety. Charges will apply. If we don't have any available rooms to separate them into, we will call you and your emergency contact if need to pick them up.

Question 4

What do I need to bring when my dog is boarding?

Accepted Answer

The only things that are REQUIRED are food for their stay, a collar and their leash. Please ensure that your dog has enough food for the duration of their stay. If they don't have enough, then we will feed them our food. However, there is an additional charge and it may cause their stomach to become upset due to the sudden change in diet. 
You may also bring any bedding, blankets and toys that would make them feel more comfortable in their room. We highly recommend bringing a T-Shirt of yours that smells like you to remind them of home!
