- In the case of severely inclement weather Happy Pets Services reserves the right to cancel lessons if we feel you or your dogs safety will be compromised. You accept that classes will still go ahead at a later date. You accept that we do not offer refunds in such cases as you and your dogs health and safety comes first.
- In the case of a force majeure event outside of our control that inhibits Happy Pets Services to perform to a contractual obligation classes will be rescheduled to a later date .
- Please do not come to class if you yourself have come into contact with an infectious disease.
- You understand that all training will require practicing at home to get consistent results. Please do get the whole family onboard. All I ask is that children do not run about or shout when in class, as this can upset and cause stress for the dogs, especially those that are not used to children.. Bring something for them to do or get them involved
- We use reward based training which will include food, toys and play to motivate your dog
- Please come along and enjoy yourself !
- Things do l not tolerate.
- I DO NOT tolerate harsh handling including shouting at your dog whilst in class as this plays no part in any of our classes.
- Tantrums , throwing your lead around, stamping your feet etc
- Rudeness to either me or your other class members .
- Cancellation policy- Refunds will be given if you decide to cancel 7 days or more before the start of a class or workshop giving me time to advertise the space. This will be less the cost taken by Square if booked online.. After this you may cancel but no refunds will be given.
- In the case of medical emergency / admission for either yourself or your dog, credit may be given at Happy Pets Services discretion towards a future class.
