health & Safety
Vaccinations are a passport to a healthy, happy and social Boarding Kennel and Pampered Pets Resort deems them as essential.
All Boarding Dogs require a current C5 Vaccination to be able to board. This vaccination covers;
- Parvovirus
- Distemper
- Hepatitis
- Para influenza
- Bordetella
Note: Dogs that receive the new 3 yearly vaccination must still have a yearly canine cough vaccination.
Most vets suggest a two week quarantine period after vaccinating your pet as some times your pet may develop a mild case of Canine Cough or have a mild reaction to the vaccination. Pampered Pets Resort errs on the side of caution and asks for a 2 week quarantine period.
If your pets vaccination is about to lapse prior to boarding or during the boarding period and you are unsure as to vaccinate or not please call the office on 08 8390 2237 as we don’t like to disappoint.
Pampered Pets Resort insists on all boarding guests to have been treated for Fleas and Worms at least two weeks prior to boarding as per the Victorian Code of Practice for Boarding Kennels. This is separate from Heart Worm prevention (Round worm, Tape Worm and Hook Worm that are Zootic and can be passed from pets to people)
Any dogs coming into the kennel that are found to have fleas or worms will receive immediate treatment at the owners cost.
Tick Treatment must be up to date for pets arriving from regions susceptible to ticks. (Northern Territory, Queensland and New South Wales)
The health and safety of your companion is important to us and sometimes they may fall ill or become injured during their holiday. Pampered Pets Resort will seek veterinary assistance and treatment from their usual vet where possible and in a case of an emergency with one of our vets in a timely manner.
All dogs entering or exiting Pampered Pets Resort must be on a leash from the car park to the office or from the office to the car park. Your pet’s safety is important to us and as cars are coming and going regularly and not all dogs are friendly we insist your pet being in your control. (The legally means on a leash)
