Liability Waiver: DOG TRAINING LIABILITY WAIVER AND PHOTO RELEASE

Assumption of Risk: I understand that dog training involves inherent risks, including but not limited to dog bites, scratches, falls, or property damage. I acknowledge that dogs are unpredictable and may react aggressively to other dogs, people, or the environment. I voluntarily assume all risks for myself, my dog, and any guests accompanying me.

Waiver of Liability: I hereby release and discharge Howie's Choice, Chris Kelly, and all associated staff from any and all liability for injuries, illness, or damage sustained by me, my dog, or my property during this class, even if caused by the ordinary negligence of the trainer or other participants.

Owner Responsibility: I certify that my dog is up to date on all legally required vaccinations (including Rabies). I agree to maintain full control of my dog at all times and am solely responsible for any damage or injury caused by my dog to other participants, dogs, or the training facility.

Removal from Class: I understand that Chris Kelly reserves the right to remove any dog from the class if they are deemed a danger to others or show signs of extreme stress. No refunds will be issued in such cases.

Photo and Video Release: I hereby grant Howie's Choice and Chris Kelly the absolute right and permission to take, use, and publish photographs or videos of me and my dog for any lawful purpose, including social media, website content, and advertising. I waive any right to inspect or approve the finished product and understand no compensation will be provided for such use.

Indemnification: I agree to indemnify and hold harmless Howie's Choice and Chris Kelly against any claims, costs, or attorney fees arising from my dog’s behavior or my own actions during the training sessions.

Medical Consent: In the event of an emergency involving my dog, I authorize the trainer to seek veterinary care if I am unable to do so, and I agree to be responsible for all associated costs.
