We here at THE BARK LOUNGE would like to address the concern pet parents have about the dog illness that you may have heard about and that has been reported going around
At our salon we already practice stringent disinfecting processes but to keep us vigilant so our clients will feel safe we have created a new protocol for safety.
1. Screening all clients before scheduling and during check In to insure that pets are feeling well, no coughing, chest congestion , runny nose, or lack of energy or appetite. Our new puppies without all their vaccinations will have to wait to come in till after fully vaccinated and have talk to their vet.
2. Scheduling pets to come at varible times so we are avoiding nose to nose contact. We ask that if you see clients in the lobby please wait outside till we have fully disinfected the lobby, and have ensured that it is safe to enter
3. We will be spraying and deep cleaning all supplies and tools and anything that comes in contact with pets
4. We have also been advised from our local vets that all adult pets be fully up to date with vaccinations and boosters especially vaccines to do with upper respiratory issues like kennel cough to minimize exposure…. Please if you feel like it’s been at least a year or 2 since you last vaccinated your pet please contact your vet to see if your pets need to be revaccinated
Please do not panic, let’s be informed, let’s be proactive and prepared.
Call us with any concerns, we are here to help.
