Training Policies and Procedures
We
train a minimum of 5 days per week in most weather conditions, making
exceptions for extreme conditions. All visitors, drop-offs, and pick-ups are
by appointment only.
Due
to the nature of our business, we do not keep normal business hours.
Unannounced or drop by visits of any kind are not allowed. We keep very
tight training schedules and appointments. Unannounced visits will disrupt
these scheduled activities as well as our personal schedules.
We encourage you to call us to check on your dog's progress as often as you like. During early training, especially obedience and force fetch, we discourage owner visits as this can disrupt the dog's adjustment and progress. After the first month or so we encourage owners to visit, view their dog work, and learn about the training process. Again, please call us in advance if you want to visit.
Prior to or upon delivery of a dog for training, all clients are required to provide the following:
· Completed Client & Dog Information Sheet
· Signed Acknowledgment of Training Policies & Fees
· Signed Liability Release
·
Proof
of current vaccinations including DHLPP (Distemper, Hepatitis (CAV-2),
Leptospirosis, Parainfluenza, Parvovirus), Bordetella (canine kennel cough)
and
Rabies
· Heartworm and flea & tick prevention
· Any required medication
· Any requested dog food
The first month's payment for training is due at the time your dog is dropped off. Dogs being shipped home must go C.O.D. or the shipping costs must be paid in advance along with your training bill before shipment. Shipping dates and times are subject to airline constraints, weather, and our prior commitments.
