    Please check that you agree to the following:

    I understand my pet’s photo will be published on Dogs Bay’s Facebook page and may be used in other website and/or marketing materials.

    Unless Reservation Insurance is purchased, I understand I will be financially responsible according to the holiday and non-holiday cancellation policy.

I assume all liability for my dog's own injuries in the event of a doggie disagreement.

    I agree to have my dog on a leash at all times, coming to and from the facility and while on the property.

    I agree to bring my dog on a properly fitted quick release collar. If you do not, one will be purchased at check in, and $5 will be added to your invoice.
