Veterinary Details ⬇️
1. Mini Paws Dog Care will use all care to ensure the happiness, safety and welfare of your dog(s).
If however your dog becomes unwell or has an accident during his board we will take him to a Veterinary Surgery. You agree for Mini Paws Dog Care and advice from a qualified veterinary surgeon to make any decisions regarding your dog’s health/welfare, providing it is acting in the best interest of your dog. An emergency contact number for you or someone to make these decisions on your behalf will be required. You agree to be responsible for payment of veterinary fees incurred upon your return. We do recommend that your dog is insured against sickness, accident, injury and third party liability prior to the start of the board. The booking form gives Mini Paws Dog Care authorisation to take your dog(s) the to our registered vet 3 if necessary, whilst also confirming you will either reimburse Mini Paws Dog Care any fees or pay the Veterinary Surgery directly, which-ever applies.
2. You agree that if your dog attacks, or is involved in a fight with, another dog (and/or person) causing injury to that dog (and /or person), you will be responsible for any losses incurred as a result including, but not limited to, payment of veterinary fees in respect of injuries to another animal caused by your dog. We recommend but do not insist that your dog be insured against sickness, accident, or injury and for third party liability prior to boarding.
3. The client is responsible for any veterinary bills, no matter how they are incurred whilst the pets are in the care of Mini Paws Dog Care.
Your Dog’s Stay ⬇️
1. You agree that if in extreme cases a dog is found to be destructive, aggressive, agitated, stressed, completely unmanageable in the home or highly anti-social , Mini Paws Dog Care may refuse to board your dog for the remainder of the stay. Mini Paws will have no option but to contact you or your emergency contact. Your emergency contact will be expected to provide alternative care or arrangements will be made to kennel your dog at your cost. Every effort will be made to avoid such an event by providing an honest account of your dog(s) and by having an open and frank discussion prior to a trial or meet and greet.
2. You agree that your dog must be fully vaccinated before any stay (copies to be supplied).
3. All dogs must be treated for fleas and worms prior arrival at Mini Paws. In the event of
flea infestation your dog’s carer will treat your dog at your expense. You agree that flea infestation in a boarder’s home is a very serious matter and must be avoided at all stays.
4. You agree to deliver your dog in a clean, groomed condition. Any dog requiring regular grooming should also be provided with appropriate grooming equipment. Please ensure your dog’s nails have been trimmed prior to their stay. I do not offer nail cutting services and don’t want rips in our sofa. Please respect that your dog is coming into our home, we take pride in offering a clean home where your dog is treated like one of our own.
5. You agree to provide us with enough food for the entire duration of your dog’s stay,
any treats allowed, your dog’s own bedding, any medication required, toys, lead and any other material requirements your dog requires or items which will help your dog to settle.
