Rules for Members, Students, and Visitors

Please remember that this is not only a home but a business. First impressions are important for the kennel. Prospective clients don't want to see dog feces or trash when they enter the drive.

Human Rules

1. Please let your dog(s) "relieve" themselves outside the field, and clean up any fecal matter deposited by your dog(s). There are pooper scoopers in the shed. Deposit fecal matter in the bucket with the orange lid.
   
   
2. Do not to let your dog(s) relieve themselves on the equipment. If this should happen, especially in the tunnels or chute, there is disinfectent spray and paper towels in the shed.
   
   
3. Please throw away trash in garbage cans provided.
   
   
4. If you smoke, please distinguish cigarettes in your vehicles. (Do not throw cigerette butts on the ground.)
   
   
5. If you take any equipment from the shed, please put it up when you're finished.
   
   
6. Place chairs and table in the shed when finished.
   
   
7. Please treat the equipment with respect so it will not get broken.
   
   
8. Children are not allowed on the field unless they are involved in a class and are accompanied by an adult.
   
   
9. Do not allow children to climb on the equipment or the fence.

12. Any mistreatment or abuse of the dogs is not allowed, and if it occurs, you will be removed from class without a refund.
    
    
13. Make sure that all field lights are turned off, shed doors closed, and gate latched before leaving.
    
    
14. Park up on the grass as close as possible to the fence. Do not block the driveway or obscure the kennel's business sign.
