Boarding
What should I bring for my dog(s) during their boarding stay?
Bring your dog’s food (pre-bagged meals are strongly encouraged) and any medications for your pet’s stay. Please leave all food bowls at home unless your pet uses a special bowl such as a slow-feeder.
We have plenty of toys, beds and blankets. It is not necessary to bring these, but if you wish you may bring one toy and a blanket for your pet. We do wash all bedding every day. If you bring a blanket/bed for your pup it must be able to fit in a standard size washing machine and be easily cleaned.
Please keep all rawhides at home, they are a significant choking hazard.
