Animal Antics Behaviour Centre

Notes:

The methods used and recommended by Animal Antics are designed to create a happy, stress-free learning environment and promote well mannered dogs. However, dogs are animals and we cannot control or prevent every possible circumstance that could cause unwanted behaviours.
Please address any and all concerns to our owner, Kelly French-Mitrevski or our managers at any point during your visit.

Animal Antics Daycare Rules and Regulations

To ensure the health and safety of your pet and of our other guests, we require all of our clients to comply with the following rules and regulations.

We accept dogs of all ages but may deny a dog an assessment if they over 2 yrs of age without previous experience in a daycare (may ask for referral) but they may be considered for socialization program with trainer’s approval.
Puppies must have at least 2 vaccine boosters of distemper/parvo, plus bordetella (kennel cough). Puppies and shelter dogs must be in the home for at least 2 weeks prior to entering the facility. Animal Antics Behaviour Centre reserves the right to refuse any dog.
All dogs must have up-to-date vaccinations. Owners must submit written proof that their dogs have current DA2PP (distemper/parvo), rabies, and bordetella vaccinations. A yearly fecal sample is highly recommended.
All dogs must be in good health and free of any communicable disease. Owners will need to certify that their dog(s) is/are in good health and have not been ill in the last 30 days. Dogs that have been ill with a communicable condition will be required to wait 14 days after the illness has cleared to return to the Centre. A letter or phone call from your veterinary office may be required.
All dogs must have a complete, up-to-date and approved application on file and completed their assessment- one hour in a controlled daycare setting to assess their temperament and willingness to be in a group/socialize prior to attending daycare.
Reservations required! All dogs must have an appointment to attend daycare, you can schedule online or by contacting us to book a spot. Please call at least a business day before to ensure a spot for your dog. We will not guarantee a spot the day of.
Please inform Animal Antics’ staff of any changes in your dog's health. If your dog is not feeling well (ie. coughing, vomiting or has diarrhea), please do not bring him/her to daycare. Please be advised that if we believe that your dog requires immediate attention by a veterinarian, we will notify you, then transport your dog and obtain veterinary services on your behalf at our veterinarian and at your cost.
All dogs must be social and non-aggressive in a group setting- access to food and toys is limited in a group setting and guarding of entryways, water and debris/rocks will be monitored.
By signing this document you as the owner certify your dog(s) has not harmed or shown aggressive or threatening behavior towards any person or other dog(s). Please remember that your pet will be spending time with other pets and the health and safety of all our animals is our main concern.
Animal Antics strongly believes in spaying and neutering your pets. If your dog is currently enrolled in our program or is enrolled prior to 8 months of age, they will be allowed to remain intact in daycare until such time as their behaviour deems them unsuitable to continue in our program. Owners of female dogs will NOT bring dogs that are in heat or close to being in heat- they must remain home for two months from the beginning of their heat and we require them to be bathed before they return. New dogs over 8 months of age MUST be spayed or neutered prior to being admitted for a trial visit.
All dogs must be under the control of the owner when in common areas, therefore the dog should be leashed and on a collar or harness in the lobby, communal training spaces and parking lot.
Animal Antics requests that all containers are labelled and clothes/dog equipment is minimal and labelled if possible.
Currently, daycare is “drive-thru based”. We ask that if entrance in the building is necessary, please be considerate and enter when the lobby is clear. One person per dog (exceptions can be made for training). You should have the dog's equipment with you or if someone else is picking it up you may leave it at drop off.

Daycare hours: 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday to Friday. Early drop off and late pick up available upon request (late pick up fees will apply).Please phone ahead to book your dog’s daycare stay with us. Reservations required.

By signing below, you agree to the following terms and conditions applicable to all uses of Animal Antics Behaviour Centre:

The vaccination records provided to Animal Antics are complete and accurate. I grant Animal Antics permission to contact my veterinarian to confirm these vaccines if necessary.
It is my responsibility to inform staff of any changes in my dog’s medical condition, including changes in stool consistency, dietary intolerances, sneezing, coughing, etc. If my dog develops these issues after leaving Animal Antics, I will contact you to inform Animal Antics of the issue.
Animal Antics takes every precaution to ensure transmissible diseases/parasites (i.e. kennel cough, giardia, coccidia, intestinal worms, etc) are not in the facility. Cleaning protocols are in place if any illness appears, in addition to daily cleaning of all spaces and spot cleaning of soiled areas. Animal Antics will not be held liability if your dog becomes ill as a result of exposure to a disease/parasite in the facility.
Animal Antics Behaviour Centre has taken every step to ensure the safety of all dogs in the facility. Aggressive dogs are not permitted in group areas, and staff monitor the entire facility at all times. I understand that even under supervision minor cuts and scratches may occur, in addition to lacerations from rough play with other dogs. I waive all liability to Animal Antics in the unlikely event that my dog is harmed, injured, maimed or killed.
I understand that an animal can show aggression or bite in any circumstance and I will not hold Animal Antics Behaviour Centre or any of its staff liable if my dog bites a person or animal
If Animal Antics staff asks me to remove my dog for any reason, I will do so without hesitation and will speak with the manager to discuss the reason for removal.
All breeds are welcome to attend, but at your own risk.
Although Animal Antics carefully assesses each dog upon registration to daycare, occasionally it is determined to not be a suitable environment for every dog at that date or a later occasion. If this is the case, my dog may be segregated and I will be contacted to pick up my dog.
Dogs can be destructive and clumsy during play - coats, collars, leashes and harness may show wear/damage as a result and can be a choking hazard so they may be removed from your dog for their safety. Additionally, during arrival and departure it becomes difficult to track all objects brought in if they are not labelled. Therefore, staff will direct you to remove any unnecessary equipment from your dog and will not be held liable for the condition of the possessions you choose to send in with your dog.
I agree that my dog(s) picture may be used on Animal Antic`s website and/or social media outlets.
Payments are required the same day or prior to services being offered. Refund requests must be discussed with the manager. Deposits and some packages are non-refundable but can be applied as a credit. Money refunds must be within 3 months of purchase.
I have read and signed the Rules and Regulations for the Centre.
