Doggy Daycare Policy and Procedure

Dalwood Paws Retreat values a safe, inviting and enjoyable environment.

​

• All dogs must be vaccinated to at least a c5 level.

• They must be wormed and ticked at least 14 days prior to their first day of daycare, this must be kept up to date as per treatment recommendations.

• All dogs over the age of 12 months of age must be desexed. 

• Drop off is between 6:30am - 8:30am. Pick up is between 5:00pm - 5:30pm. We reserve the right to turn away dogs that are dropped off late as this has the potential to disrupt dogs that are in our care.  Late pickups will incur a surcharge. 

• All dogs must be on a leash whilst entering and leaving the doggy daycare facility. This is to prevent any undue excitement or anxiety and helps your dog ease into pick up and drop off. 

• Dalwood Paws Retreat has a minimum of one day a week attendance policy. This is because dogs thrive with routine and consistency. It also allows your dog to build a strong bond with other dogs in our care. 

• We are a cage free doggy daycare. Dogs that are behaving aggressively will be separated and the owner will be contacted. 

• We accept Small, Medium and Large dogs.

• All dogs must undergo and pass a temperament and behavioural assessment prior to starting doggy daycare and the ability to accept or refuse dogs will be at the discretion of Dalwood Paws Retreat.
