You are welcome to bring as little or as much as you think your pet needs to be comfortable. If it is their first time, we suggest you bring a t-shirt you have recently worn or a towel you have recently used; something that smells like you to help your pet feel more comfortable in their kennel; toys, treats, and bedding is up to you. If you feel that these will keep your pet occupied and comfortable, you are welcome to bring them along. Please know that bedding has been known to spontaneously "explode" while here. It is an unexplained phenomenon that occurs with certain dogs. If you are afraid that might happen, please don't be upset if that happens. We do have blankets here that we can use to keep your pet comfy. We provide food and water dishes, so you don't need to bring those. If your pet has a special diet or has a sensitive stomach, please bring their food in a sealable container and be sure to give us any instructions that are needed. Our normal schedule for feeding is 7:30 am and 5:30 pm. If your schedule is different, please let us know and we will do all we can to keep that schedule consistent. If you would like us to feed your pet our "house" food, Canidae All Life Stages, there will be a daily fee.
