💊 Boarding Medication Reminder
For the safety of every dog in our care, all prescription medications must be brought in their original prescription bottles with the pharmacy or veterinarian label intact.
Please also provide clear, written instructions explaining:
-
The correct dosage
-
When and how the medication should be given
-
Any special administration instructions
This requirement is part of our state-mandated guidelines. Each time medication is administered, our staff records it on a medication log sheet to ensure accurate and consistent care.
Thank you for helping us keep your pups safe, healthy, and properly cared for during their stay! 🐾

If your pup is new to us, please take a moment to fill out our boarding forms and medical waiver. We will need these along with a copy of their current rabies, distemper and bordetella vaccines.
