Dog Owner Agreement

I,

hereby certify that my dog(s):

is/are in good health, have not been ill with any communicable diseases or parasites in the last 30 days, and have not harmed or shown aggressive or threatening behavior towards any person or any other dog. I also have read and understand and agree to the following:

1. I understand that Morningside Happy Tails is an open-play environment and because of this there are inherent risks, which even when closely monitored, may result in the following:

a. Transfer of communicable illness such as, but not limited to “canine cough”, also known as the Bordatella virus. The Bordatella vaccination does not 100% protect the dog from contracting the illness because of many different strains.

b. Injuries, usually benign, such as broken nails, sore pads, puncture wounds, abrasions and cuts, particularly in shorter coated breeds, etc.

2. If health or behavioral problems develop with my dog(s), these will be treated as deemed best by the staff of Morningside Happy Tails within their sole discretion and that I assume full financial responsibility to any and all expenses involved.

3. Morningside Happy Tails and their staff will not be liable for any result or behavioral problems that develop in my dog(s) and I hereby release them of any liability of any kind whatsoever arising from my dog(s) attendance and participation at Morningside Happy Tails.

4. I am solely responsible for any harm, including to any other dog(s), to the employees or invitees of Morningside Happy Tails, to the equipment or to the property of Morningside Happy Tails, caused by my dog(s) attendance and participation at Morningside Happy Tails.

5. Photographs or other graphic, sound, or other image, likeness recording, etc., may be made of my dog(s) by Morningside Happy Tails and that such may be used for any purpose without compensation, and I release to Morningside Happy Tails all rights that I may possess or claim to such image, likeness, recording, etc.

6. Payment is expected when services are rendered.

7. I have read, received, understood, and agreed to the terms outlined in this document, and have read and understood all terms of this agreement, including the following:
