If you like what you've seen here and want to come by or bring your dog over, the process is described below:
In order for you and us to be confident that our facility is the right match for your dog, we need to set up a "temperament test".
There is no charge for the temperament test, but we do this by appointment. It will take about 20 minutes and all we are doing is slowly integrating your dog in with the dogs here.
We bring you and your dog into an area from which we have removed all the other dogs, and after your dog has had a few minutes to relax and settle in, we begin bringing in the dogs here, one at a time. If your dog looks stressed, we'll stop and wait until he's ready to continue before we bring in more dogs.
If at the end of this process, you and we decide your dog will be happy here, then he's welcome to come anytime from that point on!
To set up the temperament test you can either call us at (310) 939-9212 or email us at southbaydoggie@hotmail.com for an appointment. (If you email, please put the words "Dog People - requesting information" in the subject line so that you will bypass our spam filter.
Please bring along a copy of your dog's vaccination records at the time of the appointment.
