Doggie.designs LLC takes all possible precautions to ensure the safety and well-being of all pets in our care. However, due to the unpredictable nature of biology and psychology of animals, unexpected situations may arise. Doggie.designs LLC is not held at fault or responsible for reimbursement of the following:

  • Quicked nails

  • Scrapes or nicks caused by matting or animal behavior

  • Hematoma of the ear caused by removal of matting

  • “Happy tail"

  • Skin reactions to any animal products used by doggie.designs

  • Cherry eye (cherry eye is not caused by grooming, but can happen during the course of a grooming appointment. Cherry eye is caused by a genetic predisposition to a weakened part of the eye that holds a dog's third eyelid in place.)

  • Any injury or health conditions not caused by negligence on the part of doggie.designs LLC or it's employees

By signing this agreement, I understand that I, the legal owner of my pet, am responsible for disclosing any and all history of unusual or aggressive behavior, any medical issues, and any lifestyle changes that may affect my pets behavior.

  • I understand that I am liable for any medical care expenses and damages that result from injury of my pet.

  • I understand that I am responsible for notifying doggie.designs LLC if I am unable to keep a scheduled appointment, including late arrivals.

  • I understand that due to the nature of pet grooming all quoted prices prior to actually grooming my pet are only estimates. Final price will depend on the temperament of each pet and the condition of its coat, as well as its overall body type in comparison to AKC standards. Upon physical inspection of my pet by the groomer a good faith estimated price will be provided.

  • Extra charges may apply for pets that are matted and/or difficult to manage.

  • I understand doggie.designs LLC has the right to refuse service to me and my pet at any time for any reason.

Liability

  • I (owner/parent) understand that if my pet has a history of aggression or biting, doggie.designs LLC reserves the right to refuse service and all bites will be reported to the local authorities as required by law.

  • I understand that I am liable for any medical care expenses and damages that result from injuries caused by my pet.

  • I expressly waive and relinquish any and all claims against doggie.designs LLC, its employees and representatives, except for those arising from negligence on the part of doggie.designs LLC.

  • I have disclosed to doggie.designs LLC all known dangers associated with my pet.

  • I expressly understand and agree that doggie.designs LLC shall not be held responsible for any damage to my property.

  • I understand that under no circumstances will doggie.designs LLC be liable for consequential damages or damages.

  • If any medical problems develop while my pet is in the care of doggie.designs LLC, I authorize doggie.designs LLC to do whatever is necessary for the safety, health and well being of my pet. Further I assume full financial responsibility for any and all expenses incurred.

  • I hereby declare to doggie.designs LLC that I am the legal owner of my pet; that my pet has not been exposed to any infectious illness within the last (30) thirty days; that my pet has been properly inoculated for the following vaccinations: Rabies, Distemper, Parvovirus, Leptospirosis and Bordetella as well as a negative fecal exam within the last year; that my pet is currently and properly licensed;

I (the owner) certify the information I have provided to be true and accurate; and I (the owner) have read this agreement in its entirety.

Cancellations/No-shows/Latenesses

I understand that doggie.designs LLC reserves the right to charge me for the loss of income incurred due to last-minute cancellations (within 2 hours of scheduled appointment), not showing up to my appointment, or late arrivals more than 15 minutes past my scheduled appointment time. Doggie.designs LLC will waive the first fee, but require a working credit card on my file in the event of any future infractions before scheduling any future appointments. Fees will be case by case, but never exceeding more than half the cost of a scheduled groom.
