BOARDING YOUR PET(S) AT FARMINGTON ANIMAL HOSPITAL

Welcome to Farmington Animal Hospital! Boarding your pet at our veterinary hospital ensures you of high quality, individualized, doctor-supervised pet care. If your pet has any preexisting or ongoing problems that you would like the veterinarian to examine, this may be the perfect time to attend to them.  Or, if your pet is currently under treatment we will continue with the prescribed instructions. There is an additional charge for administering medications.

The size of accommodation is matched to your pet’s needs and comfort. Weather permitting dogs are free to move between indoor and outdoor covered runs.  Both dog and cat wards are disinfected twice a day.

We now offer playtime! Inquire at time of admission.

BOARDING POLICY

All pets must be current on required immunizations to board. For canines: Rabies, Distemper/Parvo, Bordetella, and Canine Influenza Virus. Bordetella must be current within 6 months. For felines: Rabies and Distemper. If your pet(s) is not current on these vaccinations and we have not been provided with written proof of vaccination upon arrival your pet(s) will be vaccinated for the above mentioned immunizations.

All pets must have had a fecal exam for internal parasites within the past 6 months or be checked during the current visit. Pet’s testing positive will be treated.

All pets will be checked for fleas and ticks and, if present, will be treated prior to entry to the wards.

Please leave us with an emergency phone number.

Call our office to give us the dates of your pet’s reservation.  Please call early for holiday reservations.   We do fill up quickly. Pre-pay for 30 days and get a 10% discount on boarding. The thirty days may be used consecutively or at your convenience. A credit generated from a pre-payment can also be used for any service or product.

You may bring your pet’s own food.  This can help eliminate gastro-intestinal upset often associated with sudden diet changes.  Otherwise we feed the appropriate HILL’S diet for your pet’s life stage.  Pets are fed per your instructions.

We will be happy to bathe your pet on the day of discharge.  Why not take home a clean, fluffy pet?

Pets will be admitted and discharged only during our regular office hours.

Any pet requiring unexpected veterinary attention will receive appropriate treatment at the veterinarian’s discretion and at the owner’s expense.

We prefer you do not leave your own toys, bedding, leashes or carriers.  We have all the supplies your pet needs and your belongings will not be subject to loss or damage.

Every pet boards differently.  It is our concern to make your pet as happy as possible during your absence.  If you

notice any changes in your pet after pick-up, please let us know. Inform us also if any specific changes should be

made for the next boarding visit.

THANK YOU!     And . . . have a nice time!!
