EVALUATION OF DOG PRIOR TO PARTICIPATION Every dog must be spayed/neutered and evaluated prior to attending THE BARKSHIRE. Such evaluation may assess the dog’s temperament and interactions with other dogs and THE BARKSHIRE staff. I understand certain activities that my dog may participate in – including daycare, boarding, one-on-one play, movement within and outside the facility, and transportation to and from THE BARKSHIRE – may involve risk and possible injury, including but not limited to: exposure to parasites, viruses, and other medical conditions passed from dog-to-dog or person-to-dog; sprains, strains, bites or broken bones; motor vehicle accident during transportation; and fatigue, dehydration, nicks, cuts, or death. I further understand that not each and every potential risk can be listed above but, nonetheless agree, that the benefits associated with dog socialization outweigh the possible risks, therefore, I hereby voluntarily release, forever discharge, and agree to hold harmless and indemnify THE BARKSHIRE and its agents, successors, heirs, from any and all liability, claims, demands, actions, or rights of action, which are related to, arise out of, or are in any way connected with my dog’s stay at THE BARKSHIRE, including those allegedly attributable to the negligent acts or omissions of THE BARKSHIRE or their staff. Further, I understand that I may be exposed to certain risks when bringing my dog to participate in activities. Such risks may include property damage and/or physical injury inside or outside the facility, such as from falling, slipping, illness, and/or dog bites. Therefore, I hereby voluntarily release, forever discharge, and agree to hold harmless and indemnify THE BARKSHIRE, its agents, successors, heirs from any and all liability, claims, demands, actions, or rights of action, which are related to, arise out of, or are in any way connected with my dog’s stay at THE BARKSHIRE including those allegedly attributable to the negligent acts or omissions of the BARKSHIRE or their staff.

I further attest that my dog is free of parasites and other illnesses that can be transmitted from dog-to-dog. Due to the high risk of dog-to-dog transmission of such parasites and/or viruses, I agree that I will immediately notify THE BARKSHIRE if I learn or suspect my dog has parasites or viruses and agree to not bring my dog to THE BARKSHIRE for any activities.

THE BARKSHIRE RULES

PICK UP/DROP OFF TIMES

Monday through Friday: 7 am - 7 pm
Saturday + Sunday: 8 am - 5 pm
Holidays: 10 am - 2 pm
(pick up + drop off only, no daycare)

FOOD

The Barkshire requires that you bring your dog’s regular food to avoid changes in the dog’s diet which can cause gastrointestinal upset.  Please include enough meals for the entire length of the stay.  You can also bring their favorite treats.  Do not bring rawhides as these can be a choking hazard.

MEDICATION

Please bring all regularly administered medications with labels and dosage instructions included. We charge $1.00 per medication dosage.

EMERGENCY

If your dog becomes ill or injured during their stay, we will contact you and your veterinarian immediately.  In the case of an emergency, we will transport your dog to the nearest available veterinary clinic for diagnosis and treatment.  The clinic will require your authorization for treatment so please make sure that we have a phone number to reach you while you are away.

HEALTH

A visit to The Barkshire requires a veterinarian certificate showing proof of vaccinations for DHPP (distemper, hepatitis, parvovirus, and parainfluenza), Rabies, Bordetella and a negative fecal exam.  Titer protection may be substituted for the distemper and parvovirus vaccinations.

Dogs must be spayed or neutered after six months of age.  We do welcome puppies as long as they have the first two rounds of puppy shots (Distemper, Parvo and Bordetella) as well as a negative fecal.

TEMPERAMENT

Every dog is required to pass a temperament test for their comfort and safety as well as the safety of our staff and other dogs. Every dog is unique so not all dogs will be a good fit at The Barkshire or possibly even in a group setting at any facility.  If not, we will do our best to make a recommendation for what may be a good fit for you and your dog.
