Next Steps

• We require all dogs to be spayed by their first heat or at twelve months of age, or neutered by twelve months of age (or earlier if we deem necessary from a behavior standpoint), and to be actively be using a flea and tick preventative.
• We also need a current veterinary certificate of health verifying the following:
  Vaccinations for: rabies, distemper, parvovirus and bordatella (kennel cough)

A one-time free assessment evaluation is required prior to your pup’s first day of daycare or boarding stay. We need to ensure that every dog is placed with a group that has compatible play styles and temperament, allowing them to feel confident and safe. Your dog will be gently introduced to other members of the playgroup, one dog at a time, to make sure they all get along. After the introduction period, it’s time to have fun!

Assessment interviews are by appointment only at either 7:30am, 10am, or 12:00pm Monday-Friday. Typically, your dog must stay a minimum of a half day of daycare for the assessment, but puppies may be a shorter period of time. Please don’t wait until the last minute to schedule your assessment.
