Doggy Daycare Application

Day Care Services at Doggy Daycare

Vaccines
Every dog must be up to date on vaccines: DA2PPV, Rabies, and Bordetella. It is the owner’s responsibility to provide updated vaccination records as needed.
- Puppies need at least two DA2PPV vaccines and a Bordetella vaccine. Rabies must be given when they are old enough (no later than 18 weeks).
- If you are not a client, we require an annual vaccine certificate or records directly from your veterinarian as proof that your dog is current for these vaccinations.
- If you choose to perform titre tests, we require annual written documentation from your veterinarian of your pet’s adequate titre results.
Spay & Neuter
All ages are welcome at daycare however, every dog must be spayed and neutered by eight months of age. No exceptions.
- If your dog is displaying behaviour related to sexual maturity prior to the eight-month mark (such as humping or marking) that is disruptive to the other dogs at daycare, he or she may be required to take a break from daycare until after their spay or neuter.
Flea & Parasite Prevention
Every dog must be on a veterinarian-prescribed form of parasite control for fleas and intestinal parasites.
- We require yearlong flea and intestinal parasite prevention covering every month.
- As with vaccines, if you are not a client, we require proof of parasite prevention in the form of a medical record from your veterinarian.
Positive Socializing
Daycare is not right for every dog and that is okay. It does not mean your dog is a bad dog.
- Prior to admission, we provide an assessment to all dogs over the age of six months. This assessment is not to label your dog as a ‘good dog’ or ‘bad dog.’ It is to determine if our daycare is the right environment for your dog to thrive and have fun.
- If your dog exhibits aggressive or behavioural concerns during assessment, it will be discussed with you and will result in your dog not being admitted.
- Daycare is for your dog to have fun; however, every dog does not flourish in this environment. If your dog begins to show negative behaviour and is not enjoying his or her experience, we will discuss this with you in a timely manner.
- If your dog’s behaviour creates a potential safety concern for them or for others, he or she will be unable to continue in daycare.
