FAQs

Are reservations required or are walk-ins accepted?

Reservations are not required for day camp; but are required for overnight boarding.

If you need a last-minute reservation, please call or email to see if we have any openings.

If my dog is not spayed or neutered, are they still able to come? Unaltered pups are always welcome! Unaltered pups can play with other pups up until seven months. Once they have reached 7 months you must remind us that they are unaltered upon check in for every visit so that we do not let them play. They will be given their own yard to play with a staff member during their visits and stays.

Is anyone here overnight?

There is someone here overnight in case of emergencies. They do not walk around and check on the dogs during the night because we are not a 24-hour care facility.

​

If my dog has a health or behavior issue, will I be contacted?

Our staff is trained to recognize some health or behavior issues. We do our very best to monitor each dog for issues.  If we see that a pup has an issue, we will discuss with the manager on duty, then the manager will contact you, if necessary, and discuss further options as needed.

​

What if my dog gets injured during their stay?

Dogs that are compatible with other dogs are allowed to play with other dogs during the day. Dogs play rough and occasionally injures do occur. We do our very best to minimize all injuries. However, dogs are fast and sometimes injuries occur. Each owner assumes the financial risk of injury for their pup if they wish them to stay at The Doggy Den. If we see that your dog has an injury (sometimes we do not always see an injury even though we do our best to assess each dog), we will attempt to call, text, or email you to let you make the decision on the next step of care for your pup. However, we reserve the right to bring your dog to a vet should we deem it necessary. You, as the owner of the dog, are responsible for all vet bills.

​

What do I need to bring for my dogs stay?

Please bring all food pre-bagged per meal in zip lock bags. We do not return unused food or bags.

We cannot take personal items as they tend to get confused when our professional cleaning crew picks up all bedding each day to launder. We are not responsible for any lost or damaged items.

Please bring all required medication, but just enough for your pup’s stay. We do not take personal bags for food or tubs for food. Please make sure everything is disposable.

Post Stay FAQ

Worn out pup?

This is a symptom that concerns many owners but is actually fairly common. Your pup is in a busy environment and kept entertained with all the new sights, smells, and fun. More than likely, your pup will need to sleep a bit more due to all the good times that they had.

Tummy Troubles?

Some pups may experience diarrhea after returning home. Many owners are concerned that this means their dog has picked up a stomach bug while visiting. However, this is unlikely. In fact, a little diarrhea in the first 48 hours after returning home is very normal and often due to the excitement that your dog feels about being back in a familiar environment. If diarrhea persists more than 48 hours, or is accompanied by other symptoms, such as not drinking or eating, we advise making an appointment with your veterinarian.

 

Super Hungry or Thirsty?

Has your pet come home acting like he/she hasn't been fed? Rest assured; they most certainly have! Dogs naturally eat and/or drink less while they are in a new environment. As a result, they tend to drink more and catch up on their calories when they get home. Appetites should go back to normal quickly.

​

 Worried about Canine Kennel Cough?

Even though The Doggy Den requires the Bordetella vaccine, kennel cough is a very common infection of the respiratory system and will affect most dogs at least once in their lifetime. It is very easily spread amongst dogs, particularly when they are in close proximity to one another, even when vaccinated.

​

-Playing Requirements

Male dogs who are not neutered after 7 months will not be able to play in groups. Female dogs in heat are not allowed to play in groups until the end of their cycle. Pitbulls, Staffordshire Bull Terriers, Xl Bullies, American Bully, American Bulldog, Dogo Argentino, Akitas, Caucasian Shephards, and Cane Corso are not allowed to play in groups. All pups are still given their own yard to play in with a staff member whether its playing fetch or just getting extra belly rubs throughout the day.

​

What If My Dog Damages/Destroys Something During Their Stay?

If you know your dog is capable of damaging or destroying anything please notify the staff upon boarding/daycare. You are held responsible for all damages your dog may do, above and beyond normal wear and tear. A damage fee will be charged to your account or all costs will be paid upon pick up. Damage fees start at $52 and can go up depending on the costs of repair.
