Conduct and Interaction
You confirm that you are the owner of the dog you bring to WagWorks and that your dog lives with you either permanently or regularly.
You consent to your dog playing and interacting with other dogs on the WagWorks’ premises.
In order for WagWorks to provide a good experience for your dog, you consent to WagWorks, in its reasonable opinion, matching your dog to a group based on age, play style, temperament and size. You acknowledge that WagWorks will make this decision based on what it reasonably believes are the attributes of the individual dog.
You hereby confirm that your dog has no record of aggressive or anti-social behaviour and you have made a full disclosure of any characteristic or trait that might make your dog unsuitable for socialising with other dogs.
Should your dog be deemed as unsuitable for the WagWorks environment, for any reason, at the reasonable discretion of WagWorks, WagWorks reserves the right to cancel your booking and/or your membership with immediate effect and may require you to collect your dog immediately.
Unneutered male dogs will be assessed on a regular basis, based on temperament, to ascertain their suitability to attend the WagWorks premises. The decision whether to allow them to attend will be purely at the discretion of WagWorks.
Health and Welfare
Whilst in our care, WagWorks will act as guardian of your dog and may perform or take any action which we deem necessary to protect and keep your dog in good health. You must keep your dog registered with a primary veterinary practice that can provide surgical and emergency care. You understand that WagWorks provides a non-conventional non-surgical health care service which does not have the ability to provide for all your dog’s health needs, such as surgical treatments.
You agree to ensure your dog has been treated using a veterinary prescription product, following manufacturer guidelines, licensed for the treatment of: lungworm, roundworm, heartworm and fleas given monthly, and tapeworm given at least every three months.
If fleas, ticks or lice are noticed on your dog, we will notify you as soon as we can. WagWorks’ will not administer any treatment without your consent. If you cannot be contacted then your dog will be monitored and isolated if appropriate, until they are collected from day care.
In the event of your dog requiring any emergency treatment, you agree that the emergency vet designated by WagWorks is authorised to treat your dog. The details of the emergency vet designated by WagWorks will be presented at the reception of each club. You confirm that in the event of an emergency, WagWorks has the authority to make important healthcare decisions about your dog on your behalf when, having made reasonable efforts, we have not been able to contact you, or your emergency contact, and the matter is a dog welfare issue.
In any non-emergency circumstances in which your dog requires veterinary treatment, you will be contacted and treatment/appointments will take place either at WagWorks or at the dog’s regular registered vet as agreed between us.
We will make all practicable efforts to contact you, or your designated emergency point of contact, in all circumstances where euthanasia is recommended as a course of action by a veterinary professional. Should you and your designated emergency contact not be contactable, veterinary advice will be followed. WagWorks will not be held responsible for the actions of a suitably qualified vet in these circumstances.
You give consent for the transfer of your contact details and your dog’s details, including medical history, between veterinary practices, when a referral is required. This includes the dog’s primary veterinary practice, WagWorks emergency vet and any additional specialist referral centres as required.
All dogs who attend WagWorks will take part in a varied daily programme that involves socialisation, enrichment, scent dens, treats/chews and interactions and by sending your dog to WagWorks, you consent to your dog taking part in these activities. In addition, appropriate adjustments will be made to allow the participation of dogs with special requirements.
You consent to WagWorks using your dog’s image in photo or video format, including on our promotional material and social media accounts, as we deem appropriate.

Death or injury to a human caused by its negligence, or the negligence of its employees, agents, or subcontractors.
Fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation; or
Any other liability which cannot be limited or excluded by applicable law
Subject to Clause 26, WagWorks shall not be liable to you, whether in contract, tort (including negligence), for breach of statutory duty, or otherwise, arising under or in connection with the Contract for:

You agree that WagWorks, including it’s directors, officers, employees and subcontractors, are not liable for any behavioural or health problems, including injury, that might arise in your dog and you hereby release them from any liability of any kind arising from your dog’s attendance and participation at WagWorks.
You understand that WagWorks is an indoor facility and has three (3) secure doors between any entrance and exit for maximum security, it is therefore extremely unlikely that any dog would be able to exit the facility unsupervised, however you hereby accept the potential risk of escape and agree not to hold WagWorks or its directors, officers, employees and subcontractors liable for any loss or injury due to the escape of your dog from the WagWorks premises.
Neither party shall be in breach of the Contract nor liable for delay in performing, or failure to perform, any of its obligations under the Contract if such delay or failure results from events, circumstances or causes beyond its reasonable control.
