Boarding
Policies
Vaccination Requirements
- All pets must be healthy
and free of any contagious illnesses. If your pet is exhibiting any symptoms
that may suggest illness, please take your pet to a veterinarian. We will
be happy to refer ill dogs and cats to local veterinarians that board pets.
- All guests must have
proof of current vaccinations prior to boarding. You may fax records
prior to boarding, or have your vet fax them to us. Vaccination records may
also be sent via e-mail to HappyDogHotel@aol.com.
It is the law that every owner of a dog and/or cat vaccinates their pet against
rabies at three (3) months of age and every year thereafter by a Licensed
Louisiana Veterinarian:
Dog Requirements: Rabies (Annual Vaccine), DHLP-PC (Annual Vaccine)
and Bordatella (6 Month Vaccine).
Cat Requirements: Rabies (Annual Vaccine), FeLV (Annual Vaccine), and
FVRCP (Annual Vaccine).
- All Happy Dog Hotel
guests must be current on an active flea and tick preventative such
as Frontline or Advantage. Pets must be on preventative for a minimum of two
weeks prior to boarding. Flea and tick preventative must be applied monthly,
and all year round.
Food and Medications
- At Happy Dog Hotel we
serve gourmet meals. All super-premium food served is made with finest, purest,
quality ingredients.
- If you would like your pet to maintain their regular diet, be sure to provide us with enough food for the entire stay. Please bring only the amount your pet will consume during the reservation, and bring your food in individual baggies marked with name, day, and a.m. or p.m. (i.e. Sat -am, Sat-pm, Sun-am, Sun-pm, Mon-am, Tues-pm or Sat-am only, Mon-am only).
- If your pet has stomach
sensitivity, we recommend that you do not switch them to our food during their
stay here. If you need to do so, it is best if you give us some of the regular
food to be integrated with the new brand of food.
Toys and Blankets
- Happy Dog Hotel
provides each overnight guest with elevated beds for comfort. You are welcome
to bring your own blanket and any toys your dog may enjoy, however we cannot
guarantee that they will be returned in the same condition.
- Happy Dog Hotel provides
Kong Comfort Time at an additional charge. Sometimes while dogs are bored
or stressed they will destroy their belongings. Kong Comfort Time is a great
way for your pet to have fun, while enjoying Kong Treats.
