DOG BEST STANDARDS AND PRACTICES- We love dogs and have welcomed them for years and have learned a few things and made some guidelines so that we are on the same page. Please try your best to follow these guidelines so that we can remain pet friendly.

1. Dogs must be completely house trained, no exceptions
2. If dogs are off leash they must be generally well behaved when sharing outdoor space. If you know your dog can get territorial or aggressive he/she should not be off lease on the property. If your dog chases or is aggressive to cats they should not be off leash on the property.
3. Dogs barking or growling continuously while owners are home or away are not ready to be our guests. We understand that there is an initial adjustment period for pets when owners depart, however if barking does not stop we will call you.
4. Dogs are not allowed on furniture. We know this can be hard to manage so if you know know your pet will jump on the couch please bring your own blankets. ***We do not expect or have the time to clean animal hair off the furniture and this chore is not included in the cleaning fee. So please remove all dog hair yourself with the vacuum and lint brushes we provide located under the sink .
5. Dogs that chew on furniture, rugs etc.. obviously are not allowed.
6. Maximum two dogs unless otherwise approved.
7. Before you depart please make sure you deposit all poop bags to the main garbage receptacle next to the green pole barn. If your dog poops in the meadow grass you do not need to pick it up , if he/she poops on the lawn it will need to be picked up. Thank you for helping and support in making our home dog friendly .
