Pet Grooming Release Form

Required.

Your pet is important to us. Because we care, we want to assure you that every effort will be taken to make your pets visit as pleasant and enjoyable as possible. Due to the unpredictable behavior of animals, situations arise that are unexpected. Please initial any of the following pertaining to your pet.

Initial each that applies (optional)

1-3 letters.

Medical Condition: Occasionally, grooming can expose a hidden medical problem or aggravate a current one. This can occur during or after grooming.

1-3 letters.

Senior Pet: I understand that senior pets (age 7 or higher) may have a greater chance of injury.

1-3 letters.

Fuzzy Pet: Because my pet is severely tangled and/or matted, it is a greater risk of injury, stress and trauma. All precautions will be taken. However, problems occasionally arise, during or after grooming, such as nicks, clipper irritation, and mental or physical stress.

1-3 letters.

Parasites: If fleas or ticks are found on your pet during the grooming process, your pet will be treated with a Flea and Tick shampoo to kill the parasites and you will be charged an additional fee. Ticks found will be removed for an additional charge. If ticks are found, we strongly suggest you have your pet tested for Lyme disease. Please note that parasites are a health hazard to your pet as well as to humans.
