Yes, anyone is able to pick up your pet from Red Dog. We ask that the expected person’s name be noted in your account and must present a valid ID to us upon arrival.

Absolutely! We encourage all of our clients to take a tour of Red Dog to see the resort for themselves!  Taking a tour will give you the opportunity to choose your pet’s room type and see exactly what their day will look like when they stay over with us at Red Dog. Tours are given by appointment only Monday-Saturday. Please email us or give us a call to schedule your tour prior to your arrival to Red Dog.

To ensure the safety of all of our guests, we ask that your dog or cat stays home when joining us for a tour.

All cats will be required to show proof of current Rabies (both one year and three-year vaccination is accepted) and Distemper vaccine (yearly). These vaccinations are required for all services within both the Red Dog Resort & Spa.

All doggie guests are required to show proof of current Rabies (both one year and three-year vaccination are accepted), Distemper (both one year and three-year vaccination are accepted)  and Bordetella vaccines (every six months). These vaccinations are required for all services within both the Red Dog Resort & Spa.

At Red Dog, we look forward to continuing the highest possible standards within our resorts and as such have made the following changes to our vaccination requirements. In order to protect all of our pet guests, Red Dog Pet Resort and Spa will now require the Bordetella vaccination be given every 6 months for all dogs visiting the resort.  

The Bordetella “kennel cough” vaccine, does not fully protect against the condition, however significant reduction in the spread and severity of the symptoms are seen with a biannual vaccination.  All dogs who attend daycare, overnight resorts, rescues or those that frequent dog parks are considered ‘high risk’ for this condition. Symptoms of Bordetella “Kennel Cough” can range from a dry, hacking cough and quickly worsen to pneumonia.

Please contact Boston Animal Hospital at (617)427-2210 for this fast and simple oral vaccination to be administered to your dog.

When checking-in to Red Dog, we ask that you please bring a labeled flat buckle collar if your dog is participating in Lodge & Play (at an additional cost). No adjustable collars, please! If your dog is not participating in Lodge & Play, your collar and leash will be returned to you when you check-in. Please make sure to bring the collar and leash back with you for pickup.

You may also bring two toys and treats. All belongings should be marked with the guest’s first and last name. Some toys and treats may need prior approval from the Red Dog team during check-in.

Please leave any blankets or bedding home, as we provide guests with a blanket upon request. Premium bedding can be adding to any stay for an additional charge. 

All medication must be in the original container with the guest’s first and last name listed. Red Dog will administer the medication as it is directed on the original container. If the directions differ from what is listed, please bring a note from your veterinarian with the updated instructions for the medication.

Please note there will be an additional charge for administering all medications.
