Please Read: Important Notice Regarding Canine Health

The dog owner is expected to make sure that their pet's vaccinations are up-to-date when they bring them to Blue Ridge Dog Daycare. If a vet visit is necessary, the owner will be charged a fee of $2.50 per mile and an additional $50.

Following the recommendations of veterinary experts, Blue Ridge Dog Daycare requires the following vaccinations be current, prior to arrival, for all pets boarding, training, grooming, and visiting the facility. These requirements are for the health and safety of all our guests, and we require written documentation from your veterinarian.

All dogs over 6 months are required to be vaccinated with the minimum of:

• DHPP
• Bordetella
• Rabies

We recommend dogs receive all their vaccinations, especially kennel cough at least 10 days prior to boarding.

DHPP (Distemper, Hepatitis, Parainfluenza, Parvovirus) - Annually or every three years.

Bordetella (Kennel Cough) - must be within past 12 months.
**Please note, some vets administer by request only**

Rabies - Annually or every three years, depending on the vaccine your veterinarian administered.

Puppies under 6 months must be current with their puppy shot series.
