BOARD & TRAIN PACKING LIST

Time to pack up! We want your dog healthy/ happy during their time with us.

 
  • fOOD:

    • Enough of your dog’s regular kibble for the duration of the stay (please measure and do not send more than a few cups extra of food. Our storage spaces are limited). We cannot accommodate extra large containers or more food than is necessary.

    • Food should be in a sealed, airtight container meant for dog food with a locking lid. Please do not send bags of food. Be sure your container has a airtight, complete seal. Plastic storage tubs without an airtight seal will not be accepted. Label your bin with your dog’s name, food brand/flavor, and food measurements (ie: 1 cup AM and PM)

  • Training Equipment

    • Any halters, e-collars, prongs or bark-collars your dog is already using in training with us. If you have something you think we will want to use during the course of your dog’s program, please reach out to us before packing. We prefer to use equipment tested and vetted by our trainers, and extra equipment is more likely to get lost.

  • rewards (12 oz/ week of stay)

    • Due to our experiences with allergens and food drive we only accept these treats.

  • Medication/sUPPLEMENTS

    • Please include all medications and dosage/instructions on a written label directly onto the bottle.

    • For flea/tick preventatives, label with the date the treatment is due.

  • ELEVATED COT STYLE BED (you will need ONE FOR HOME, DO not send to us)

    • We love Vehoo for a more budget pick, and Kuranda if you want a nicer bed or have a large dog/ a dog who chews. The mesh with several colors on it from both brands looks the best in person- the solid colors tend to show every single hair and always look dirty. You can find these brands here, or you can order Kuranda custom directly from their website but lead times can be 30 days or more. Please do not buy Coolaroo or K&H beds, they do not last, and are wobbly causing dogs to be nervous to use the bed.

Please see our product recommendations on our Amazon store. We encourage buying local as well, but not all products can be found locally (beds and wet food especially)! Feel free to reach out with questions.

PLEASE DO NOT PACK:

  • Toys - unless there is a single, specific toy your dog is crazed for.

  • Crate

  • Freezer bones

  • Fabric Items (including but not limited to fabric beds, fluffy towels, blankets, pillows, etc)

  • More food than is needed for the duration of the stay. NO BAGS OF KIBBLE that are not in a sealed container. (Treats are fine!)
