Proof of vaccination is required before your first scheduled day.

Preventative Care Requirements

• Dogs must be on a veterinarian-approved flea and tick preventative (topical, oral, or collar).
   

• Dogs must be on heartworm prevention year-round.
   

• Dogs must arrive free from parasites (fleas, ticks, or worms).
   

Additional Health Guidelines

• Dogs showing signs of illness (coughing, vomiting, diarrhea, lethargy) will not be accepted.
   

• Dogs recovering from surgery or injury must have veterinary clearance to participate.
   

Proof of vaccination and preventative care is required at check-in.

This helps ensure a safe environment for every dog in our care.

• Sit, down, and stay with duration & distractions
   

• Reliable recall (come when called)
   

• Calm crate behavior
