required vaccines
The health and safety of every dog in our care is our top priority. To protect our pack and ensure a clean, safe environment, all dogs attending daycare, boarding, grooming, training, or any of our services must be up to date on the following vaccinations:
​
Required Vaccines
-
Rabies
-
Distemper & Parvo (often administered together as a combination vaccine such as DHPP)
-
Bordetella – must be current every 6 months (annual Bordetella vaccines are not accepted)
-
Canine Influenza - may take 4-5 weeks for complete inoculation​​​​
​
Recommended but Not Required
Leptospirosis
​
Proof of Vaccination
-
Proof of all required vaccinations must be submitted prior to your dog’s first visit and kept up to date for continued attendance.
-
Vaccination records can be uploaded directly into your account, emailed to us, or provided by your veterinarian.
Lapsed Vaccinations
-
If a vaccine has expired, your dog may need to wait 1–2 weeks before returning to the facility.
-
The exact waiting period depends on the vaccine and your veterinarian’s guidance, to ensure your pup is fully inoculated.
Important Note
Many pet parents assume their dog automatically receives all required vaccines during yearly veterinary visits. However, this is not always the case. Veterinarians typically administer only core vaccines (such as Rabies, Distemper, and Parvo).
Vaccines like Bordetella and Canine Influenza are often optional and must be specifically requested. Please double-check your records to confirm your dog has received them.
