Sorry, no dogs over 120 lbs!

*** If your dog is not TOTALLY house-broken he/she cannot stay at CPC! ***

Dogs that live outdoors 24/7 and can go potty whenever they want are not considered housebroken. If your dog can't "hold it" overnight he/she cannot stay at CPC. Sorry!

If your dog has a sensitive stomach and will easily develop loose stool it is recommended your dog does not stay at CPC

Dog Boarding at CPC is Unlike Dog Boarding Anywhere Else!

•  Critical Requirements...

   

  • Proof of Current Vaccinations Required!

    • Written proof is mandatory and must be faxed or emailed BEFORE your dog is delivered to CPC. Fax to 303-816-9436 OR email to DogPsychology101@gmail.com

    • YOUR DOG WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED FOR TRAINING WITHOUT THIS INFORMATION FAXED OR EMAILED AHEAD OF TIME - IF YOU SHOW UP WITH YOUR DOG FOR TRAINING AND CPC HAS NOT ALREADY RECEIVED THE PROOF OF VACCINATIONS PRIOR TO THIS DATE YOU WILL BE TURNED AWAY - NO EXCEPTIONS!

     

    1. A) Distemper 

    2. B) Bordatella - Veterinarians are now suggesting Bordatella is given every six months, regardless if your dog is going to be in a boarding kennel or not.

    3. C) Rabies - You must show proof of current, official Rabies certificate - Rabies tag is also requested, but not mandatory).

    4. Vaccinations can cause listlessness, fatigue and sometimes subtle illness in animals. Please don't wait until the last minute to get your dog properly vaccinated.

    5. If your dog requires vaccinations before the training, please try to get this done at least five (5) days prior to dropping your dog off at CPC, so your dog is completely back to normal before training begins.

    6. If your dog has been placed on any kind of 'doggie downer' (Prozac, Clomicalm, etc.) or other behavior altering medication by your veterinarian, please have your vet contact Suzi at CPC (303-995-0132) to discuss this important issue.

    7. Nosodes will NOT be accepted as a form of vaccination replacement for the board and train program. (No vaccination is 100% effective, nor are nosodes. In fact, nosodes do not produce titers against diseases like a usual vaccination would, so they are not vaccine replacements. I have been giving my animals the vaccinations required/offered for my entire life, whether for cats, dogs or horses and have seen no adverse side effects, ever. In my opinion, nosodes are kind of like herbal remedies for humans. Meaning that the synthetic drugs and vaccinations used to treat and prevent diseases and other illnesses work very quickly and are usually very effective, whereas the herbal equivalents need to be taken for MUCH longer periods of time before they will do their job, if they ever do.

     

  • Proof of Clean Fecal Sample Required!

    • Written proof is mandatory and must be faxed or emailed BEFORE your dog is delivered to CPC. Fax to 303-816-9436 OR email to DogPsychology101@gmail.com

    • YOUR DOG WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED FOR TRAINING WITHOUT THIS INFORMATION FAXED OR EMAILED AHEAD OF TIME - IF YOU SHOW UP WITH YOUR DOG FOR TRAINING AND CPC HAS NOT ALREADY RECEIVED THE PROOF OF CLEAN FECAL SAMPLE PRIOR TO THIS DATE YOU WILL BE TURNED AWAY - NO EXCEPTIONS!

     

    1. The fecal exam should be done 10 to 15 days, prior to your dog's stay at CPC. If you wait until the last minute and it turns out that your dog's stool is not clean CPC will not accept your dog for boarding and/or training until another fecal sample is tested and you are able to provide proof that it is clean.

    2. If your dog has parasites, some medications can take up to 10 days to work fully.

    3. Your dog must be free of fleas and other parasites, both internal and external, before staying at CPC

    4. You will be financially responsible if you dog infects/infests any other dogs at CPC.

    5. To have a stool sample tested, simply take a pea-sized piece of your dog's fresh stool to your veterinarian and ask for a fecal panel to be done to rule out Giardia, Coccidia, Roundworm, Hookworm, etc.

     

  • Other Very Important Notes

     

    1. No dogs will be taken in or sent home on Sundays or holidays. Exceptions can be made, but there is an additional $20 charge.

    2. Only dogs from 7 months to 10 years of age will be accepted. This requirement is strictly adhered to, due to maturity levels, health issues and potty training issues.

    3. If your dog has never stayed at CPC you must have the dog checked in for boarding between 8am and 11am on the day of drop off.

    4. No female dogs in season will be accepted. If your intact female comes into heat while at CPC she will be taken to CPC's usual boarding facility in Aurora.

    5. If your intact male will urinate inside his own kennel he will not be accepted for boarding at CPC.

    6. If your dog is not TOTALLY housebroken CPC will NOT accept your dog for boarding. Dogs that live outdoors and can go potty whenever they want are not considered housebroken.

    7. Warning: Please know that a boarding kennel environment can cause stress in a dog. There can also be unseen cuts and/or bruises and most dogs will not eat meals in the usual manner it did at home. Your dog may lose or gain weight while at CPC or somehow receive cuts/bruises that the trainer does not see.

    8. *DOG FOOD* - You must bring your dog's food in its original bag or write the exact brand and flavor written on another bag. (NO NEED to bring a new, unopened bag for vacation boarding; that is required only for the B/T program.

    9. Please do not bring your dog's food in any kind of container other than a dog food bag. CPC must place your dog's food in airtight containers. There's just not enough storage space for other containers and they will sit outside in the elements until you pick up your dog - thank you!

    10. Please DO NOT bring any extra food supplements or raw or canned food. Your dog should be fine without these items for the short stay at CPC, unless your veterinarian has stated otherwise. Please let us know in advance!

    11. Please bring any and all potential medications your vet has prescribed for your dog; please include all instructions. Note: Preventatives such as, Frontline, Advantage, Program and Pet Armor are not 'medications' and can be skipped for a few days/weeks.

    12. Please DO NOT administer Frontline or other flea treatments to your dog right before bringing him/her in for training! It makes the entire kennel area and our house stink for days!

    13. Please bring your dog's regular collar with tags on it. If you do not have the tags the Rabies certificate will show proof of that vaccination.

    14. Please bring ONE bed and ONE blanket for each dog. Dogs without beds/blankets will live on concrete, plastic, grass and dirt! (The blanket provides 'nesting material' atop the bed.)

    15. Please limit toys, bones, etc., to a minimum. One or two of each will do just fine.

    16. Please do not bring rawhide chews, rope toys, stuffed animals or any toys/chews that are smaller than a tennis ball (unless you have a very small dog) CPC furnishes real bones, Nylabone® and Kong® toys for all dogs and provides tennis balls for playtime. If your dog has a specific toy for playtime, bring it along!

    17. Please do not bring kennels, dishes or anything that is not listed above. CPC is not responsible for lost, stolen or chewed leashes and other personal items. If your dog destroys his/her own bed or blanket while at CPC it will be removed for the remainder of the dog's stay.
