-Prior to any services being provided, proof of ALL vaccinations must be provided (Rabies, Distemper, Parvo and kennel cough). Kennel Cough vaccines take several days to become effective so plan accordingly. Grooming customer’s only need to provide rabies certificates.
-All customers must use flea & tick control products (collars, dips or drops) to avoid infestation. It is very likely that your dog will come in contact with fleas and ticks. If your dog is repeatedly found with fleas or ticks, all services will be suspended.
-There is a $25 service charge on all returned checks and all future services paid in cash. There will be a 5%/mo. interest rate imposed on all accounts unpaid beyond 30 days.
-DO NOT allow your dog to relieve themselves outside the fenced area landscaping. ALL dogs must be leashed at all times when being dropped off for ANY service.
-ALL dogs must be crate trained. Grooming dogs are dried in a crate. Day care dogs take mandatory naps in a crate. Boarding dogs are required to sleep in a crate at night.
-You must provide leashes, food, medication, carriers and other appropriate supplies for us to care for your pets and to keep them comfortable. You must immediately reimburse “Dedicated To Dogs” for any costs incurred in this respect.
-We reserve the right to seek emergency veterinary services for your pet while it is in our care. We will make every possible attempt to contact you; however, we may need to make a judgment call. You must immediately reimburse “Dedicated To Dogs” for any such costs incurred.
-Certain risks are involved in having your dog groomed, attend doggie day care and boarding such as cuts & nicks, dog bites, strain, stress, contact with fleas and ticks, etc. Every attempt will be made to avoid but we are not responsible for any such costs arising from these risks.

DAYCARE & BOARDING POLICIES:
-All dogs are required to attend one day care session or an overnight stay to be evaluated for group social skills.
-Day care services are on Monday, Wednesday & Friday (rain or shine). Drop off & pick up times are 7am drop off and up to 6pm pick up. There is a 30 minute grace period after 6pm but please call if you're running late. Pick ups after the 6:30pm grace period MUST be pre-approved and incur $2 per half-hour. Please call ahead if you’re early for pick ups as all dogs are prepared to go home based on your pre-determined time.
-Random day care services are payable each day upon pick up of your dog. Regularly scheduled, recurring day care services are payable on the last day of service each week. If payment for previous week is not received, services will be suspended until all charges are paid.
-Boarding on major Holidays will incur an extra $5.00per night on top of the regular boarding fee. Last minute, emergency boarding will incur a $20 surcharge.
-Dog’s nails must be kept short. The dogs play very vigorously and I play along with them. Serious injuries and bruising can occur with long nails. If your dog arrives at day care or boarding with long nails, they’ll automatically be clipped and you will be charged the regular fee.
-Dogs must be kept clean and odor free. Please be considerate of my home environment. Dogs that arrive to day care or boarding that are in need of a kennel bath will automatically be bathed and you will be charged the regular fee.
-ALL day care and boarding dogs must be housebroken. If it’s determined after services begin that your dog is not house trained, future services will be canceled.
-ALL day care and boarding dogs must have basic obedience. If it’s determined after services begin that your dog lacks basic obedience, future services will be canceled.
-Neutering/Spaying is NOT a pre-requisite for day care or boarding. However, un-spayed females must provide date of last heat and must forgo services for 2-3 weeks while in season. Un-neutered males must forgo services 2-3 weeks when Alexis is in season twice per year. Dedicated To Dogs is not responsible if you unwittingly bring your female to daycare or boarding while in season and she becomes impregnated.
You will be required to sign a release waiver detailing these policies.
