Temperament Test
A temperament test is required for the safety of our staff and other dogs in our day camp. Through this test, it gives our doggy staff an opportunity to get to know you and your pup. During this time, we will ask a few questions about your pup's history. This test is conducted by certified staff that allows us to observe your dog's behavior or any trigger they may have due to fear, anxiety, or aggression that can lead to any safety concerns to staff or other dogs. It also gives you an opportunity to ask any question that concerns you and get a tour of our facility. The test will run for what is considered half a day of daycare. This requirement allows us to fully evaluate if your dog feels safe and comfortable with our environment, staff, and other pups.
Temperament Test:
Monday-Friday
Through appointment ONLY! Must call/email to schedule a test.
*Dogs must pass the test before they can attend daycare or boarding*
Requirements and Vaccination
Please be aware that due to state laws and regulations, your dog needs to be up to date with vaccinations and the following requirements before scheduling a temperament test:
- Bordetella
- Rabies
- DHLPP (Distemper, Hepatitis, Parainfluenza, Parvovirus and Leptospirosis.)
- Negative fecal exams (test for Giardia and Parasites) are required annually
- Puppies must have their first two rounds of shots
- Your dog must be neutered/spayed by 6 months
- Your dog must be in good overall health to be in our day camp to avoid enhancement of medical issues due to anxiety or other issues they may have while being in a group environment.
