No pets or puppies-in-training can attend the Open Day as it would be too distracting for them and a disturbance for trained dogs. Ambassador Dogs can attend once a vet slip is submitted in advance, confirming kennel cough vaccines are up to date otherwise, you will be asked to sign a waiver on the day. No pet dogs will be allowed on site.
