Safety and cleaning questions

Happy Paws is fully licensed as a business and commercial kennel by Solano County, and the runs are heated in winter and air-conditioned in summer. Vaccine rules, a car-first check-in and fire sprinklers in the kennel building add to day-to-day safety.

How the kennel keeps pets safe and the space clean, in plain terms.

The building

Is the kennel climate controlled?

Yes. The 100 indoor/outdoor runs are heated in winter and air-conditioned in summer, and each dog chooses inside or out.

Is there fire protection?

The kennel building opened in October 2022 with fire sprinklers, plus HVAC and epoxy floors.

Is it clean?

The kennel is kept immaculately clean, and Google reviewers often say so in their reviews.

Health protection

Which vaccines are required?

Dogs: rabies, distemper/parvo, Bordetella and canine influenza. Cats: rabies and FVRCP.

Can fleas come in?

Pets should arrive flea and tick free. If a problem is found after drop-off, the pet is bathed at the owner's cost.

Why a 16-week minimum age?

Younger pets have not finished their vaccine series, so they must be 16 weeks old before the first day.

Handling pets

Why wait in the car at check-in?

A staff member carries in the belongings and walks your pet to the kennel. It prevents parking-lot scuffles and escapes.

Why remove a prong collar?

Metal pinch collars can catch on chain link. The staff have collars for dogs who need one.

Do dogs share space?

Dogs see neighbors through the fence but have their own space. Dogs from one household can share a kennel.

If something happens

What if my pet becomes ill?

The agreement lets the kennel arrange veterinary care at your expense. The staff try you first, then your additional contact, then your emergency contact.

Is the kennel licensed?

Yes, as a business and commercial kennel by Solano County.

Can a fully vaccinated pet still catch something?

The agreement notes that a vaccinated pet can still catch a contagious illness, which is why the kennel asks for the full set of vaccines.
