PLAYCARE GUIDELINES


Doggy Etiquette

All dogs are descendants of wolves and are pack animals by nature. When placed in a group they will eventually find their place in the pack. It may take a few minutes or a few days, but soon enough they'll sort themselves out

Playground rules

At Ruffhouse Playcare, we carefully observe your pet and his/her interaction with other dogs. However, dogs do use their mouths and paws to play and this may result in the occasional bite or scratch, just like your child may get the odd bump or scratch at the playground.

We do take the safety of your pup very seriously and will take every precaution to avoid these sorts of occurrences. If a dog seems a bit too aggressive we will step in to correct this and use our time out area if necessary. We do exercise gentle but firm control in order to maintain a safe and happy environment.

Getting started
 
Dogs will be dogs, but we know they have their own unique personalities and needs.  At Ruffhouse we'll accommodate your pup's needs to the best of our ability. It all starts with a meet & greet that gives us the opportunity to get to know you and your pet. If your pup seems too nervous we may require that you spend some daycare playtime with your pet at Ruffhouse so that they can get comfortable with us.

Illness or Injury

While your dog is in our care, we constantly assess his/her well being. In the event that your dog is injured or becomes ill they will be treated on site or transported to a local veterinarian as required. We always have staff trained in pet first aid on site.
