What happens if my dog gets sick or injured?

 

First and foremost the safety and well being of your dog is of the highest importance. Insuring that your dog remains safe and well cared for is our first responsibility and as such we take it very seriously. We do our best to have our dog parents screen for pre-existing health conditions but some factors may be beyond our control. In the event that a medical emergency arises while a dog is at our facility or participating in a service that we provide it is imperative that we are immediately able to get them medical treatment at the closest available facility. We will call ahead to the veterinary offices in closest proximity geographically to us to insure they can handle the emergency present. Your dog will be rushed to the closest available facility for treatment and you will be notified. We notify the owner after we have secured a medical treatment center for the animal to avoid delays that may be caused by emotion on the part of the owner. Our goal is to get your pet medical attention as quickly as humanly possible, and any distractions may interfere with that process.

08

Do I need to make a reservation?

Yes, reservations are required.  Reservations can be made same day, as long as the requirements for boarding have been met.  We do fill up quickly on the weekends, especially during the summer months and around holidays.  We recommend contacting us soon for a reservation to assure a spot.  If the kennel is full when you call to make a reservation please ask to be placed on a waiting list.  We will notify you of any openings.

Can I see photos or take a tour of the facility?

 

Yes.  We have a photo gallery available on our site.  Alternatively, you can make an appointment to come to the facility for a tour.  It's a great idea for you to see where your dog will be staying.
