Just The FAQ's at the Big Backyard...

What can I bring for my dog's overnight stay?

We have beds, bowls, and kongs for all of the dogs staying with us. If you bring bedding it must be washable. We will NOT be responsible for any items that could be damaged due to destructive chewing that may occur during their stay. If you really love your dogs' bed then we advise to use one of ours.

Do I need to bring my own food and treats?

Food:  You MUST provide your dogs own food and special treats for their stay. We would not want to subject your dog to having loose stool or an upset stomach because of a dietary change. We will need specific instructions for food and treats. A boarding registration card will be provided to fill out before drop off. If your dog runs out of food, the charge is $2 per meal.

Medications:  We will be happy to give medication to your dog at NO extra charge. All medication must come in a clearly marked container (we would prefer original bottle). Please, have the following information labeled with: Dogs Name, Name of Medication w/ strength and the Dosage per day (let us know at the time of drop off of what doses have already been given that day). We need to be aware of any and all health issues (seizures, colitis, etc.) so we can give the best possible care for your dog.

Should I label my dog's belongings during their stay?

Absolutely! Please, label everything you bring for your dog with their name on it. We are not responsible for any items lost or destroyed. If you might be attached to something please do not bring it to daycare. We will have plenty of chew toys, blankets, etc. to keep them comfortable. NO TENNIS BALLS because dogs are very possessive of items like these.

Will I have a clean dog on pick up?

Your dog will have the chance of getting dirty while playing here. You may request a bath when dropping your dog off for their stay. If you forget to ask for a bath - no problem, just give us a call while you're away and we will make sure you're greeted with a clean dog!
