1.
What are the kennels like and will our dog be
outside at all?
Our
indoor kennels vary in size and your dog/s will stay in size appropriate
kennels to ensure their comfort.
We
keep the boarding area at a comfortable temperature with the air conditioner
and in-floor heat. Your dog’s comfort is our priority.
Included
in your dog’s stay, your dog will be taken outdoors at least three times a day.
He will either be taken on a walk or have time to romp around in the play area.
Each
dog is also given one-on-one attention and is carefully watched for any signs
of sickness or unusual habits.
2.
What will my dog need for his stay?
Accessories: You are more than welcome to bring your
dog’s bed/blanket or favorite toys along for his stay here. We do provide
blankets if you would rather not bring your own. Food and water dishes are also
provided.
Note:
For sanitary reasons, please only bring machine washable bedding and toys. We are not responsible for lost or damaged belongings.
Food: We
feed BLUE Buffalo as our in-house dog food. Although it
is not required that you bring your own food, we do recommend it, as an
immediate switch in diet is typically not easy on a dog’s stomach. If you
choose to bring your dog’s own food, please bring it an air-tight container and
label it with your dog's name.
Proof of vaccinations: We require that you bring proof of your pets vaccinations. No exceptions.
