The Barking Lot

We require your pet to be fully vaccinated.

For dogs, the vaccinations required are against Bordetella (kennel cough), Rabies, and DHPP. For all vaccinations, a three-day waiting period is required after the vaccination has been administered.

All cats need to be vaccinated for Tri-cat (Feline Rhinotracheitis, Calicivirus, Panleukopenia) and Rabies. Although not compulsory we also recommend Antifungal and Feline Chlamydia Vaccination.

Each time your pet is brought to TBL, you are recertifying that the pet is in good health and has not had any communicable illness of any kind. Failure to inform us of this can lead to permanent expulsion from TBL.

To ensure the safety of all other guests and employees, all guests must undergo a free assessment test before taking part in socialization activities at TBL. This is a day long process without you in which we assess whether your dogs’ temperament. Displays of any guarding, aggression, or inappropriate behavior in a daycare setting can lead to lack of admission to TBL. TBL reserves the exclusive right to decline participation or to terminate the involvement in activities to any dog at any time for any reason.

Although every guest is closely monitored by TBL staff to prevent injury, it is still possible in the course of normal dog play that your dog may receive minor nicks and scratches from rough play. Any injuries will be explained and pointed out by qualified staff immediately. TBL is not a sterile environment and from socialization and all its benefits there are also risks associated, possible injury, including but not limited to exposure to parasites, viruses, and other medical conditions passed from dog to dog, sprains, strains, bites, fatigue, dehydration, nicks or cuts. Not every potential risk can be listed above. In case of an emergency, you give permission to TBL to perform first aid treatment in your dog. You understand that TBL will not be liable financially or otherwise for injuries to your dog or any personal property while your dog is participating in TBL’s activities. You will assume full financial responsibility and all liability for any expenses involved with the behavior of your dog.
