Barking Policies
Policies are in place to ensure a pleasant experience for all of our guests
Barking Policy
We cannot have a dog ‘repetitive barking’. A repetitive barker is a dog who barks continuously for a period of 10 minutes.
Please understand repetitive barking is not an ordinary occurrence even for puppies or first-time guests.
If your dog is a 'repetitive barker' we will use a very humane method to quiet the barking. A citronella anti-bark collar gives a quick burst of citronella spray under the dogs chin. We have had good success with this collar. Dogs are very smart and figure it out quickly & without stress.
The Citronella Spray Collars are very effective but expensive to use…
For Excessive Barkers: If a Citronella Anti-Bark collar is used on your dog there will be an additional $5 charge a day or $20 per week.
No Pit Bull Policy
We love and respect all dog breeds. However, we feel that we are not equipped to keep or maintain Pit Bulls in our facility.
A pit bull is defined as any dog that is an American Pit Bull Terrier, an American Stafforshire Terrier, a Staffordshire Bull Terrier, or any dog displaying the majority of physical traits of any one or more of these breeds.
There are many local facilities that will gladly look after you.
