Join the Pack
Before accepting new dogs for services, we schedule a behavioral examination to see how well they get along with our staff and other dogs. It's important that staff build a relationship with each dog, ensuring that they make the best, most fun and safest groups possible.
This will also give you a chance to ask any questions you may have. Register today, then give us a call, and we will get your dog on the schedule.
We look forward to seeing you!
Registration
If your pup has not visited our facility there are certain steps that must be taken before your dog can participate in Alpine Canine's programs.
First, you will need to register your pet. The link below will take you directly to our New Owner Form. Please read everything carefully, and fill out as much as possible about yourself and your pets. Please also include a picture of your pet—we love to see their faces!
Behavioral Evaluation
Now that you have a profile created--it's time to schedule a temperament test! This is a chance for your dog to start acclimating to the sights, smells, and sounds of our state-of-the-art facility and all of the human and non-human residents. The cost of the test is $10/dog.
The evaluation process is designed to make sure your dog is a good fit with the rest of the pack, and it also gives you an opportunity to ask any questions you may have about our services.
To schedule an evaluation, contact us via the button below or by email at info@alpinecanine.com
Medical Requirements
We require current vaccination records for Rabies, Distemper, and Bordetella at (or before) the time of your dog's evaluation. Otherwise, for the safety of our staff and our boarders and campers, we are unable to allow your dog on the grounds. For your convenience, please upload a copy of your dog's records directly to their profile using the link below.
Scheduling an Appointment
Temperament tests are by appointment only. Please call our office at (406)541-4453 or email info@alpinecanine.com to schedule. The cost of the test is $10/dog.
This is not considered a normal daycare day. Instead, the evaluation is more of a quick meet and greet. You will drop off your pet for a short period of time and pick them up an hour later; this can be shorter or longer depending on each dog. Afterwards, one of the trained staff will report to you on how your dog did and guide you through the next steps of daycare and boarding recommendations.
After Evaluation
If your pup has passed our behavioral evaluation, congratulations! They are welcome to come in for daycare during our operating hours, no scheduling required.
If you are interested in boarding, please call or email to schedule this service. If you are new to Alpine Canine, we require at least 3 days of 1/2-day daycare prior to scheduling your boarding request.
If you are interested in our hiking services, we require your dog spends at least 3 visits to determine whether or not your dog would be appropriate for that service. It is important that we have time to build trust with your dog while they establish the building as “Home Base.” Dogs showing signs of anxiety may need more time to warm up, and not everyone is a suitable candidate for pack hiking.
