ADMISSIONS
Go Dog LA is committed to the safety, health, and happiness of all the pups that come here to play.
Before you check your dog in
for daycare or overnight boarding, each of the following requirements must be met. This assures a safe and fun environment for all of our dogs.
Step 1: Online Register via yellow box to pop up on home page. This is required before scheduling a meet & greet. For existing clients, this is required if you have not done so already.
Step 2: Proof of vaccinations
Proof of current vaccine records for rabies, Canine Influenza, Parvovirus/Distemper, Hepatitis, Leptospirosis, Para Influenza, and Bordetella is mandatory. The Bordetella vaccine needs to be boostered every 6 months, which is standard in most boarding and/or daycare facilities. Please be sure to upload proof of these vaccinations in the registration link prior to your screening interview.
Step 3: Temperament test
We do a screening interview with your dog to be sure that he/she will do well in the cage-free environment. Dogs can be grumpy as long as they're not dangerous! Although we do our best to pre-screen each dog; you, the owner, know your dog's temperament best. If you suspect, even slightly, that he/she may have a problem being in a group of interactive dogs; Go Dog LA is probably not a good fit. Please note that interviews are by appointment only so please call us to set up a time just for you and your dog.
You must complete the first three steps before we will schedule a temperament test.
Additional conditions for admission
Spayed or neutered (unless under 7 months of age)
Your dog must be spayed or neutered if he or she is 7 months of age or older. Please bring spay/neuter certificate to your screening interview.
On flea and tick control
We do a flea/tick check - all dogs should be on an anti-flea & tick program.
Space and availability
We generally do not require that you make a reservation for daycare most days of the year. If you haven't been to Go Dog LA in some time, it is best to call us and make sure we have current vaccination records on file as we cannot admit any dog into daycare without proof of vaccinations. For boarding, we request that you call in advance to make a reservation. Boarding availability is not always guaranteed due to nature of pandemic so as always, its important all pup parents to have a back up plan. We do fill up on major holidays so please try to call in advance and reserve a spot for your pup!
