FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What is required before my dog can start camp?

All dogs must have current rabies, distemper (all rounds complete), and bordetella. In addition, you will need to fill out the three enrollment forms found under the "Forms" tab.

*Canine influenza is not required, however it is recommended.

Will my dog be kept in a crate during the day?

Rugged Oak Canine Camp is a crate free daycare! Dogs spend their entire day in play yards with their friends. Though dogs are not crated, we do have kennels available incase a dog needs to take a break or eat a meal.

Are non-neutered/spayed dogs permitted?

We require that all dogs 7 months or older are neutered or spayed. This is for safety purposes as dogs are in group play all day long.

Do I have to stick to a set schedule?

Here at Rugged Oak we are very flexible and willing to work with your schedule! While some prefer to set a regular schedule, others come whenever suits them. However, those who choose to set a schedule automatically have a space reserved on days that become full.

What happens if there is an incident between my dog and another dog?

Safety is our top priority, but we understand that not every dog will get along. We are trained to read body language to help prevent problems from escalating. If a problem does arise, we will take the proper steps to remove said dog(s) from the situation.
