We do not require females be desexed, however, we do require that females who come into season do not attend daycare for the duration of their season.
Attendance
Our dog daycare runs like a school in that having the right combination of dogs in their 'pack' or 'class' is a big priority. Matching play styles, temperaments and correctly introducing new dogs is important in maintaining a happy, safe and enjoyable environment for all attendees. Due to this, we only accept dogs who can attend daycare on a regular weekly or fortnightly basis.
Socialisation
All dogs wishing to attend The Paddocks must have had prior socialisation.
We do not accept dogs who:
- have not been socialised
- are highly anxious, reactive or aggressive
- bark excessively at daycare or during transportation to daycare
- growl or display intimidating behaviour during transportation or whilst at daycare
- do not travel well in general, and vomit, urinate, defecate or cause damage to crates
And we reserve the right to refuse enrolment, attendance or continued attendance for any dog, without reason.
Our vision is to provide a safe space for dogs to play, enjoy and be happy and for our staff to feel safe, happy and enjoy their work environment. For this to be achieved, dogs must be relaxed and feel safe. Some dogs will not suit the stimulation offered at The Paddocks. If you are unsure if your dog is suited to daycare, please get in touch with us via email hello@embarkdog.co to discuss further.
