Preparing your pet for a Happytail visit  

    The boarding rate is an all inclusive $17.00 per day per pet.  We know some kennels charge extra for walks, to bring your pets food or to give medicine.  We at Happytail believe that is all part of caring for your pet and it is included in the boarding rate.  And at Happytail our rates do not go up for Holiday stays!!

 - Make sure your pet's shots are up to date.  Your pets must have current rabies, distemper and parvo combination shots, as well as bordatella vaccines.  Ask your vet about corona and leptospirosis vaccinations.  They are not required, but are recommended by most vets before kenneling your dog.  It's a good idea to take an older dog to the vet for a checkup before you bring it to the kennel.  

 - Let your vet know your dog will be at Happytail.  We will call your own personal vet in case of an emergency.  

 - If your pet is on medication, be sure to bring enough to last your pet during its stay with us.  We do not charge extra to give your pet prescribed medications. 

 - A few days before your pet's visit, give your dog an old towel or an old shirt to sleep with.  Bring the article with you to ease the first day or two in new surroundings. 

 - Bring a rawhide chew bone, tennis ball or a favorite toy to make your pet feel more at home.  

 - Dogs are fed high quality food.  However, you may bring your own food if your pet has special dietary needs.  

 - There is no need to bring beds, pads or feeding dishes.  We provide sanitary bedding and dishes.  Label whatever you bring for your pet.  

 - Send your pet a post card.  No kidding.  Many people do.  

 - Feel free to give us a call if it would ease your mind.  We understand.  We're pet lovers too!
