Holiday Canine Boarding Form

ACCOMMODATIONS:
Includes lodging in our specially designed kennels suited to your pet’s comfort and feedings with Science Diet Sensitive Stomach or owner-provided food. Fresh water will be available at all times. Your pet’s quarters will be cleaned and sanitized daily. Unsupervised exercise will be provided twice a day in our outdoor fenced-in yards. Our fence is a six-foot wooden privacy fence for your pet’s safety. On weekends and holidays, your pet is taken care of twice a day by our staff. Your pet is left unsupervised with no staff member on site after hours, but your dog is our first priority when we arrive in the morning. Additional packages are available for your dog. Please note that packages are subject to availability and weather conditions.

MEDICATIONS
Any medications to be given to your pet or prescribed due to illness will be charged $4.75 per day to administer (excluding heartworm medications and vitamins).

ALL MEDICATIONS MUST BE IN THE PRESCRIPTION OR ORIGINAL BOTTLE

MEALS
We feed Science Diet Sensitive Stomach dry food. If you would like to provide food, please prepare it in meal-sized bags (one per feeding).

VACCINATIONS: All dogs must be up to date on their vaccinations. It is the owner's responsibility to ensure that proof of current vaccinations, testing, and heartworm prevention is on file at the time of admission. If proof is not available upon admission, vaccinations, testing, deworming, and/or heartworm prevention will be updated at that time, and the client will be charged accordingly.

Dogs must be current through their departure date for the following: Distemper, Bordetella (within 6 months), Heartworm Test, Rabies, and a fecal exam and/or deworming (within 6 months).

All dogs are checked for fleas and ticks upon admission. If fleas are found, the dog will be given a flea bath, Comfortis will be administered, and Advantix will be applied—all at an additional cost to the owner. If ticks are found, a tick bath and Advantix will be required, also at an additional cost to the owner.

MEDICAL FEES: Our goal is to keep your pet clean, healthy, and happy while they are boarding with us. If your pet becomes ill during their stay, we will provide the necessary treatment, and you will be responsible for all medical costs incurred. For any major medical care, we will make every effort to contact you using the phone number provided. If we are unable to reach you, we will act in the best interest of your pet.

INHERENT CONDITIONS: Occasionally, pets may develop issues due to environmental or dietary changes. Symptoms can include vomiting, diarrhea, coughing, sneezing, or self-trauma such as excessive scratching or biting of the skin. While we take every precaution to prevent these issues and treat them promptly if they arise, please be aware that such conditions can develop during or shortly after boarding. The hospital is not financially responsible for these naturally occurring conditions, should they occur.

ABANDONMENT: Please notify us of any changes to your pet’s scheduled departure date. If we do not hear from you and are unable to reach you for a period of 10 days beyond the scheduled departure date, the hospital will consider your pet abandoned and will proceed in accordance with North Carolina pet abandonment laws.
