What every Nosy Barkers visitor needs to know
Nosy Barkers Boarding is fully insured and bonded.
First time registrants are required to provide the following;
• detailed information regarding your dog
• proof of up-to-date shots
All dogs must be;
• spayed or neutered by the age of 9 months
• socialized and comfortable around people and other dogs
• up-to-date with vaccinations—Bordetella (kennel cough) is recommended
• on a flea prevention program from May to November
• house broken
• registered in the city where they live and wear I.D. tags or be chipped
IMPORTANT NOTICE!
The Toronto Municiple Code Chapter 349 requires that all dogs owned in the City of Toronto must be licensed and wearing a tag. Failure to license your dog each year may result in a $240 fine. If an unlicensed dog is fined under our care, it will be the responsibility of the owner to pay that fine.
Meet and Greet
An initial meet and greet is very important as it provides your dog with an opportunity to meet the caregiver and see the home he will be staying in before being left for the actual boarding period. When you set up your meet and greet with a home please respect the caregivers time and show up on time, or call if you know you will be late.
Trial Overnight for New Guests
Because the safety of the dogs in our care, and the harmony within our homes, is so important to us, new doggie guests may be required to do a trial overnight. This will be determined during the meet and greet. Specifically, we are concerned about aggression towards other dogs and/or people, extreme food or toy possessiveness, excessive barking or whining, excessive mounting (humping), destruction and escape attempts. Our aim is that all our doggie guests enjoy their visit stress free. DIsruptive behaviour as listed above can create an unpleasant atmosphere for dogs and caregivers. Due to the extra care and time required to integrate your dog into the home and help ensure a positive experience and outcome, a trial fee does apply.
What You'll Need To Bring
Food*, bowls, treats, leash, poop bags, toys, bedding and anything else that will make your dog feel comfortable during the visit. If your dog requires a crate for security or because of destructive behaviour when left alone, please be sure to bring it.
*Owners are required to bring enough food to last the entire stay. In the case where the purchase of additional food or treats is necessary, owners will be responsible for that cost including the mileage necessary to fulfill the task. A receipt will be available on request.
Emergency Care
In the event of an emergency, your dog will be taken to the veterinarian specified on registry if it is within a reasonable distance from the boarding home. If the situation is time sensitive, we will take your dog to the closest Veterinarian to the boarding home.
