As professionals we are always monitoring behaviour and physical changes that may occur with your pet overtime influenced by age, environment, and life experiences. We may at times require your pet to take time off or seek training options and reserve the right to decline services at any time. We will always openly communicate any concerns we have and work with you where possible to resolve any issues.
