Day Care Rules

Play and socialization

Welcome to BlueDog daycare. Please review the following information. Although we are a fun based training/care facility, we do need to take care of business which means protecting not only ourselves but you and your pets.

1. We have a zero tolerance policy for violence:
   1. Harming a dog in any way (defined by our staff) is grounds for immediate termination of our services.
   2. Acting in a violent way (defined by our staff) towards our staff or clients is grounds for immediate termination of our services.
   3. If your dog shows signs of aggression towards others (human or animal) we may separate your dog form the others until you pick them up. Their ability to return to daycare at a later date will be at the discretion of Blue Dog staff.
