All pets admitted for boarding must be free of contagious/infectious disease. If the pet must be separated from the general population for a contagious disease and put into quarantine, additional charges for quarantine procedures will be added to the total bill.

All pets boarding must be current on vaccinations and free of internal and external parasites. Written proof of vaccinations or verification with the pet's veterinarian must be provided before boarding the pet.

All dogs must have a negative microscopic stool exam for intestinal parasites within the last 12 months and currently be on Heartworm preventative. Those dogs not on Heartworm preventative must have a negative microscopic stool exam within the last 3 months. All cats must have a negative microscopic stool exam within the last 12 months.

If parasites are found in or on the pet during the stay, they will be treated as Boggy Creek Animal Hospital determines, and the cost of the treatment will be added to the total bill.

If the pet is found to be aggressive and dangerous to the staff or other animals, it may require special handling and treatment. All additional charges will be added to the total bill.

With your permission and for an additional charge, we will try to bathe or groom all pets prior to discharge. However, if the pet's health or temperament makes it hazardous to the staff or the pet, the pet will not be bathed or groomed.

If the pet is to be picked up by someone other than the owner, arrangements must be made in advance with Boggy Creek Animal Hospital regarding the bill.

All pets not picked up within 7 days after the expected date of pickup will be considered abandoned. Without contact from the owner within this time period, Boggy Creek Animal Hospital is given authorization for disposition of the abandoned pet as they deem best. I understand that I am still obligated to pay for all charges accrued until my pet was relocated or disposed of.

All pets boarding for more than 7 days must prepay their boarding charges unless previous arrangements have been made.

Regarding the treatment of my pet during its stay:

In the unlikely event that your pet becomes ill while boarding, every attempt will be made to reach you at the above phone number prior to proceeding with treatment.

Treat my pet as needed. Do any and all diagnostic tests, treatments, and surgeries necessary for the well-being of my pet. I accept full financial responsibility for all charges related to the treatment of my pet(s).
Treat my pet as needed, but not to exceed $ (Mention in next page )
Do not treat my pet. If my pet passes naturally, please do not resuscitate. If the Veterinarian determines that my pet requires extensive measures to maintain life and is painful or suffering, I would prefer humane euthanasia be performed.

I understand that if the proposed treatment exceeds the amount designated, and I or my agent cannot be contacted, my pet will NOT receive further medical treatment even if it is life threatening. I understand that if the Doctor or his/her agent(s) feel that my pet is undergoing needless pain and suffering due to the lack of medical care, and the treatments and tests needed would exceed the above amount, the Doctor and his/her agent(s) are authorized to euthanize (put to sleep) my pet. I will be responsible for all charges accrued during that time period.
