The goal of Waggin’ Tails is to provide a safe, fun and stimulating social environment for dogs while in our care. We believe that this new pet care option for busy pet owners will open up new homes for more shelter dogs, as well as keep normally bored or very active pets happily in their current homes.
To ensure the safety and health of your pet and of our other guests, we require all of our guests to comply with the following Rules and Regulations.
AGE: All dogs in the adult area must be at least four months of age, unless in the puppy playpen area.
SHOTS: All dogs must have up-to-date vaccinations. Owners must provide written proof that their dogs have received DHPP within the last year and Bordetella (the kennel cough vaccine) within the past 11 months. Rabies must also be current as required by state law. Dogs can be given the rabies vaccine as young as 3-4 months but is legally required by 5 months of age. Vaccination records must be provided to Waggin Tails each year to keep our records up to date, and ensure the safety of all dogs and staff.
HEALTH: All dogs must be in good health. Owners will verify that their dog(s) are in good health and have not been ill with a communicable condition in the last 30 days. On admission all dogs must be free from any conditions which could potentially jeopardize other guests. All dogs will require a veterinarian certification of health to be readmitted after any illness. All dogs are required to be spayed/neutered after 6 months of age.
BEHAVIOR: All dogs must be non-aggressive towards humans and other dogs. They must not be object aggressive/possessive. Owners certify that their dog(s) have not harmed or shown any aggressive or threatening behavior towards any person or other dog(s). Please remember that your pet will be spending time with other pets and that their safety and health is our main concern.
Dogs are in play groups with assortment of toys for their enjoyment, if your dog has a history of eating, swallowing or destroying toys. The daycare staff needs to be alerted. If your dog has swallowed toys in the past, gets possessive or aggressive with toys, daycare might not be the right fit.
