We base this on a number of factors, including size, age, play style and more.

If any required vaccination is past due, your pet must be updated before checking in with us. If your pet needs medical attention during the stay, it will be the owner's responsibility to pick it up and provide transportation to the veterinary clinic. If the owner or emergency contact is not available, Fur Paws LLC will transport the pet to and from the veterinary clinic we have on file and will administer the medication for the treatment during the rest of the stay, or until owners pick it up. Additional fees might incur for transportation purposes. Fur Paws LLC will be authorized to access and keep all medical records from your veterinarian for their files. Puppies between 12 and 16 weeks of age will require a clearance letter from the veterinarian to be boarded at our facility.

Vaccination and health records are to be uploaded to your portal, submitted by email to support@furpawspethotel.com or dropped off at our facility with a minimum of 24hs prior the time of check in. Otherwise, the appointment will be canceled.
Vaccines required are: Annual Exam, Rabies, Distemper, Hepatitis, Leptospirosis, Parvovirus, Bordetella, Monthly Flea and Parasite control.
STRESS-RELATED ILLNESSES/DOG NOT BEING ITSELF
While we make every attempt to keep your dog happy, healthy, and safe while in our care, boarding is by nature stressful. Dogs placed in facilities like this may experience decrease immunity or gastric changes which vaccines do not prevent. All boarded dogs may be susceptible to canine cough, diarrhea, constipation, excessive shedding, and dermatologic changes. By signing this waiver, you agree that Fur Paws LLC is not held responsible for these conditions or associated costs.
It is completely normal that after the time the dogs spent at our facility and once they go back home their eating habits or mood change a little. They might leave some food or not eat at all for 2 or 3 days. They might also look sad and that is because they miss being around the other dogs: in the wild, dogs live in packs and are always around other dogs, and our environment is very similar to that. If your dog shows any of these symptoms do not worry right away, it should be back to normal after a few days.
