Boarding Form

We offer a courtesy pick-up time on Sunday from 5 - 5:30 p.m. If you choose to pick-up during this time there will be a charge for Sunday boarding. Please notify us if emergency information or return dates change.

I hereby give Spring Hill Animal Hospital permission to send messages/reminders and confirmations to me via email and text messaging as a means of communication.

OPTIONAL SERVICES AVAILABLE AT ADDITIONAL CHARGE:

We will bathe your dog on dismissal at no charge (3 nights minimum stay required for free bath) if he/she is not under too much stress by the bath. Cats do not receive baths unless sedated.

OWNER RELEASE

Please initial after every paragraph

I understand you cannot guarantee the health of <animal> I understand and will not hold the clinic responsible for conditions that are unavoidable in boarding kennels, such as but not limited to weight loss, hair loss, upper respiratory infections, bronchitis, diarrhea, and fleas.

I understand all pets admitted to the clinic must be protected against communicable contagious diseases and must be free of internal and external parasites or will be treated on entry or discovery at the owner / agent’s expense.

If vaccinations were performed elsewhere, I can provide written documentation of the vaccinations administered by a licensed veterinarian within 24 hours of notification. If I do not provide vaccine history my pet will be vaccinated to assure health of all pets within the hospital.

I understand that in the event of <animal>’s illness, the staff will immediately attempt to contact me or my agent to discuss the problem and treatment options, but may not be able to contact me immediately and is therefore authorized to initiate appropriate treatment until or my agent can be reached.

We would like to know how to proceed if your dog develops any medical problems that can arise while boarding. Our primary concern is ensuring your dog’s comfort and his/her ability to receive rapid medical treatment should problems occur.

Should an EMERGENCY arise, I authorize the medical staff to sedate <animal> and/or perform such emergency procedures as may be necessary for the health of <animal> until I can be notified. I agree to pay, in full, all charges for necessary services rendered for and to <animal>.

I understand that the clinic is not responsible for lost or damaged personal items left with the pet including but not limited to leashes, collars, toys, and bedding. I am aware that any items left with my pet will be identified with a permanent marker and may be washed with bleach.

The clinic is to use all reasonable precaution against injury, escape, or death of <animal>. The clinic and staff will not be held liable for any problems that develop provided reasonable care and precautions are followed. I understand that any problem that develops with <animal> will be treated as noted above and I assume full responsibility for the treatment expense incurred.

I will call if my “pick-up date” changes so you can plan accordingly. If I neglect to pick up <patient> within 5 days of the date scheduled for discharge and do not notify you within that time period, you may assume that <animal> is abandoned and are hereby authorized to dispose of <animal> as you deem best and/or necessary.
