Online Enrollment Application


Daycare Enrollment Requirements

At Barks n’ Rec, it is important that every dog can enjoy our safe, social clubhouse. To create a healthy environment for all our guests, every dog must meet the following requirements:

Age

Puppies can be enrolled no earlier than two weeks after completing their second series of DHPP (Distemper / Hepatitis / Parvovirus / Parainfluenza) vaccinations. These usually occur at 12 weeks old.

Sex

Dogs aged 7 months or older must be spayed or neutered

Vaccinations

Guardians must provide veterinarian certifications for current DHPP, Bortadella (canine cough) and rabies vaccinations. Puppies typically receive their rabies shot at 16 weeks. Barks n’ Rec is a flea-free zone. Dogs must be on a veterinarian-approved flea prevention program from June to November.

Physical Condition

Guardians will certify that their dog(s) is in good overall health and has not been ill with a communicable condition over the last 30 days

Behaviour

Above all, we operate a safe daycare. Guardians must guarantee that their dog has not harmed in any way, or otherwise shown aggression or threatening behaviour toward, any person or other dogs, food or toys. While we know dogs get excited, especially in new surroundings, excessive barking/mounting/bullying and marking, will not be tolerated at our daycare

Enrollment

In addition to the online enrolment application, all dogs must complete an assessment at BnR prior to their first day. Once your Application is received by Barks n’ Rec we will email you to schedule your dogs ASSESSMENT to complete their Enrollment. Assessments generally take 30 minutes, and will be conducted on weekdays during hours of operation. We ask that you bring original copies of their vaccination records for our files.

I agree to pay all expenses and applicable fees related to any aid given or services engaged. Furthermore, I hereby release Barks n’ Rec from responsibility for any damages or injuries whatsoever stemming in any way from such an incident of emergency.

If unwanted behaviour persists, Barks n’ Rec reserves the right to expel problematic dogs. Barks n’ Rec reserves the right to refuse any dog.

    Declaration

    Despite all dogs appearing mentally and physically sound and being treated with the utmost care and foresight, dogs are unpredictable and have the potential of displaying unwanted behaviours without warning. I understand that participation in dog daycare – including transportation to and from Barks n’ Rec premises – is not without some risk to guardians, family members, guests, other people, dogs and possessions. These risks can include – but are not limited to – illnesses and injuries to persons or dogs, such as bites, cuts, scrapes and abrasions to pads.

    I hereby declare that I am responsible for personal injury, injury or damage to other dogs, or damage to property caused by my dog(s) while under the care and control of Barks n’ Rec and its agents, or any time my dog(s) is on Barks n’ Rec premises. I agree to assume full and sole responsibility for any and all costs thereof.

    Assumption of Risk

    I agree to hold harmless and release from liability Barks n’ Rec, its shareholders, directors, officers, employees, agents and affiliates from any and all claims or suits which arise in any way out of services provided by Barks n’ Rec or affiliates, or as a consequence of my association with Barks n’ Rec, including but not limited to lost or misplaced property, any injury, illness, damage or loss to myself or my dog(s), or from any pre-existing health condition of my dog(s), either known or unknown to Barks n’ Rec.

    Indemnity

    The undersigned hereby agrees to indemnity, agrees to hold harmless, and to release from liability, for any claim by any person or company against Barks n’ Rec and/or its principals and affiliates, including the legal costs to defend any such claim, whether or not the damages are caused in whole or in part by the negligence, actions or inaction of any of these parties.

    Limitation of Liability

    Notwithstanding this full and unlimited release, if in the event Barks n’ Rec is held liable by legal judgment, arbitration, or any authority for any damage suffered by Guardian(s) or dog(s), the scope of its liability will be limited to the total amount paid to Barks n’ Rec by the Guardian under the Contract over the 12-month period preceding the judgment.

    Privacy Waiver

    My dog(s) may be videotaped, photographed, and recorded when on Barks n’ Rec premises, and Barks n’ Rec shall be the exclusive owner of the results and proceeds of such taping, photography and recordings, with the rights of unlimited use throughout the world, and to copyright, use and license in any manner.

    Aggression

    I certify that my dog(s) has not shown aggression or threatening behaviour towards any person, other dogs, toys, or food.

    Summary

    I grant Barks n’ Rec full and complete authority to care for my dog in any situation in the best manner the company sees fit, which could include engaging the services of outside professionals. I agree that I will without question pay for any extra expenses incurred in the reasonable and appropriate care of my dog, as determined by Barks n’ Rec, regardless of the situation.
