Hello from Camp! F2023
Thank you for your interest in our little camp & completing this application. Please note before continuing: All campers over one year must be spayed/neutered to be eligible to come to camp. We require the Canine Influenza vaccination (also known as CIV or H3N2/H3N8) along with Bordetella, DHPP and Rabies. The CIV vaccine is the most overlooked vaccine by applicants so we try to mention it up front to make everyone aware of our requirement. All campers must have the initial CIV vaccination followed by a booster, typically done two- three weeks later. We require an evaluation day camp day for all applicants. We are unable to make a reservation for overnight camping without a completed application with the requested documents and an evaluation day. The safety and security of our campers is our priority.
Providing us with answers to all the questions below will help us determine if your camper is a good candidate for camp.

All campers must be current on the following vaccinations in order to come to camp:
DHLPP * Bordetella * Canine Influenza * Rabies.
Things to Know:
We work exactly like a hotel. Check out time is at noon Monday - Saturday. There is no charge for the last day if pick up is before noon. If campers are picked up between 5-7pm the daily rate applies. We do not offer a morning pick up on Sunday while we prepare our weekend campers for departure and all campers are charged the daily rate.
Day Camp (daycare) is held Monday–Friday. Drop off is from 8:30am - Noon, however we request you arrive by 10am to enjoy all activities and group play. Pick up is anytime between 5-7pm. Day camp cannot be tacked on to an overnight reservation.
We offer Room Service to all campers at check in. Our current menu can be located under the More Tab on our website and will give you an idea of some activities that go on at camp. These fun addons help rescue dogs each month.
In the event your dog is not selected during this next round of selections, it does not mean that your dog is not a great dog. Most often it simply means we cannot accommodate everyone who wants a bunk at camp. We choose to stay small to maintain our personal promise of individualized care for each dog. We would love for all dogs to come play – however, we can accommodate only a select few. Other times we decide our facility does not offer what your dog needs. We are a fabulous place for most dogs, but certainly not the best fit for all dogs. We want dogs to be safe, healthy, and happy. If we believe we cannot achieve this standard then our duty is to be forthright about that. We will let you know why we made the determination we did. If your dog was not chosen in this round of selection, due to availability, you can request consideration in the next round.
Please answer all questions honestly. This is not a test. It is simply used to determine if we can safely care for a member of your family. Please send shot records, even if missing the Canine Influenza. We review applications without proof of the Canine Influenza, however, if chosen, your camper will be required to have their initial & booster before they come for evaluation day. We only review completed applications w/ all required documents.
We make every effort to get the status of campers’ selection to you as soon as we possible. The process can take up to 2 weeks and is dependent on how many are in front of you. We suggest you always have a backup plan. We have hundreds of applicants for each round and we typically only choose about 12% so a backup plan is essential. If you have immediate needs for overnight care, we can provide you with a recommendation of a facility that does not require an application or selection screening. Our process does not allow us to book immediate needs for new clients.
Current/past families of Bed and Biscuits applying for a new family member need to fill out the application. Selection is not required for your pup. We simply need to get your new pup added to your account and an evaluation day set up.
Lastly, this form is not a confirmation of secured reservation dates. Please watch the website for selection opening and closing dates. Applications can be turned in at any time however selections will not occur outside of the dates posted on the website. Please contact us at bedandbiscuits@gmail.com with any questions. We look forward to learning more about your pup!
