It involves assessing a dog's behavior, social skills, and overall temperament to determine their suitability for our boarding facility. During the evaluation, our trained staff will spend time with your dog, observing their reactions to various stimuli and interactions. We will assess factors such as their response to other dogs, their comfort level in different environments, and their ability to follow basic commands. The evaluation is conducted in a controlled and supervised setting to ensure the safety of all dogs involved. Our goal is to identify any potential behavioral issues or triggers that may require special attention or accommodations during their stay. By conducting a temperament evaluation, we can better understand your dog's needs and preferences. This allows us to provide a tailored boarding experience that aligns with their individual temperament and ensures a positive and stress-free environment for all dogs in our care. Please note that the evaluation is not meant to judge or label your dog, but rather to ensure that we can provide the best possible care and accommodations based on their unique temperament.
