Version PMDT-2026-11-09-v1
For the purposes of this document Paws a Moment Dog Training, LLC will be referred to as PMDT. If you have any questions or concerns regarding this agreement please feel free to contact the PMDT staff.
Boarding Agreement & Release
I understand dogs are not always predictable and there is potential for injury. If PMDT and its staff observe a situation resulting in an injury, PMDT staff is trained to intervene as quickly and as safely as possible. I agree not to hold PMDT or its staff liable for any injuries the dog may suffer while under their care.
Training Agreement & Release
I understand that myself and my dog will need to practice concepts at home to maintain the training results. I will need to consistently follow through with the training provided to me to ensure I have control over my dog. I acknowledge that my dog may be trained by multiple individuals at PMDT in order to gain more reliability with commands. I agree to reach out to PMDT with any questions or concerns regarding to the training my dog and I received.
I understand my participation in dog training exercises with PMDT includes a degree of risk for me, any present guests, and my dog. These risks may include, but are not limited to; risks of falls, bites, injury through contact with other participants, their dogs, or surroundings. I acknowledge that participation is voluntary, and each participant hereby expressly agrees to hold PMDT harmless from any liability whatsoever resulting from injuries or damages as a result of participation in the lessons. I waive, release and discharge PMDT from any claims, demands, injuries, damages or causes of action that are in any way related to participation in the lessons, unless through the negligence of PMDT.
Exercise Agreement
I give permission for my dog(s) to engage in on and off-leash exercise. I understand there are risks of injury when exercising, both with and without other dogs. The PMDT staff’s top concern is to ensure the safety, health, and happiness of all dogs under their care. Not all incidents can be predicted and a dog may suffer an injury regardless of any precautions. If injury to the dog results from an interaction between dogs, each owner is responsible for all expenses related to his or her dog, regardless of which dog was at fault. I agree not to hold PMDT or any other clients liable for any injuries or illness that the dog may suffer as a result of exercise.
Medical Agreement & Release
I understand and agree to comply with the vaccination requirements for PMDT. All dogs are required to be up-to-date, with records acknowledged by PMDT, on Rabies and DHPP. Additionally, verification of a Bordetella vaccination and a negative fecal test within the last six (6) months must be provided. All puppies must comply with the above requirements, and have had a minimum of their second DHPP and Bordetella vaccines before to their scheduled start date.
I understand that any amount of vaccination, sanitation, or care to the dog can prevent the contraction of a communicable illness or disease such as Upper Respiratory Infection, Parasites, or Papilloma Virus. Additionally, I understand adjusting to a new environment can affect some dogs’ appetite. PMDT will make every effort to recognize any symptoms as promptly as possible and address them to the best of their abilities. However, I understand that employees of PMDT are not veterinarians, nor do they have the qualifications in animal medicine to diagnose illnesses at PMDT.
I understand the risks of illness, disease or harm from injury, and hereby release PMDT, its members, or other representatives, from any and all losses, damages, expenses arising out of, or in connection with any communicable illness, disease, or any other medical condition or injury sustained while in the care of PMDT.
If a dog shows signs of illness, or is injured, PMDT will attempt to contact the owner, or the emergency contact, immediately. In the event that I, or my emergency contact, cannot be reached, I hereby authorize PMDT to make all health care decisions for my dog. PMDT has my permission to take my dog to a veterinarian for treatment. I grant permission to any clinic or third party to discuss the condition of the dog with PMDT, and any information pertaining to care and treatment of the dog.
