THIS DOCUMENT HAS LEGAL CONSEQUENCES, PLEASE BE SURE TO READ AND LET US KNOW IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS.

1.  CO-MINGLED ENVIRONMENT – ASSUMPTION OF THE RISK:

Woof In Boots operates a co-mingled boarding, daycare, training, and grooming environment, in which dogs interact with one another.  This is different from an environment in which animals are caged and separated and I prefer this open environment even though certain risks are inherently associated with such a co-mingled environment.  I recognize, accept and assume the risk that dogs may be injured when in a group environment, even when directly supervised. I authorize my dog to interact, under direct human supervision, with other dogs while at Woof In Boots. 

I hereby waive and disclaim any claims or assertions of liability against Woof In Boots, its owners, officers, directors, agents and employees, for any and all injuries sustained by my dog while on the Woof In Boots premises or if my pet escapes from the premises and is injured or killed as a result.

I acknowledge and agree that I remain responsible for any and all injures to other dogs or people, caused by my dog, directly or indirectly, while at Woof In Boots or in the unlikely event that my dog escapes from the premises, and agree that I will indemnify, defend and hold-harmless Woof In Boots, its owners, officers, directors, agents and employees,  from and against any direct or indirect claims, damages, losses and expenses, including attorneys’ fees, related to injuries to other animals or people caused by my dog. 

2.  AGGRESSIVE DOG & SPECIAL CARE:

3.  DAYCARE, BOARDING & TRAINING (ACCIDENTAL DEATH):

I acknowledge and agree that in the unfortunate event my pet dies while in Woof In Boots care, my pet will be taken to my designated veterinarian and maintained for pick-up or further instruction by me.  If I have not designated a veterinarian or, if for any reason my veterinarian refuses to accept custody of my pet, then I acknowledge and agree that Woof In Boots may take my pet to an alternative veterinarian or holding facility for pick-up or further instruction by me.  I hereby waive and disclaim any claims or assertions of liability against Woof In Boots, its owners, officers, directors, agents and employees, for the death of my pet.

I hereby give the Woof In Boots groomers permission to tether and/or muzzle my pet to ensure a safe grooming process.

I agree that I will inform the groomer if my pet has fleas, lice, and/or mites in order to take proper precautions and treatments. I authorize the groomer to treat my pet for any fleas, lice, and/or mites if found during the grooming process, and if necessary as determined in the groomer’s reasonable discretion, to confine my pet.

I agree that if my pet requires extra groomer assistance, as determined by the groomer in his or her reasonable discretion, there will be a $10.00 "Special Handling" charge in addition to any other associated charges.
