The records must show every required vaccine is current through the end of the stay. [Book a stay](https://happypawskennels.propetware.com/customerLogin)[Call 707-678-6600](tel:+17076786600) The easiest time to send records is with the booking request, because the kennel confirms each reservation. Here is each option with a short checklist. ## Option 1: upload to your account The online account at ProPetware lets you send booking requests, update your information and upload vaccination records. Open the account from the [booking page](https://happypawskennels.com/book/), attach the file for each pet, and send your request. The kennel confirms the reservation afterwards; sending a request is not a confirmation. If you have more than one pet, attach a record for each one and name them in the request. Mixed-up files are the most common delay, and a record that lists a different pet name from the booking is easy to miss. ## Option 2: email Email a photo or scan to HappyPawsKennels_Dixon@yahoo.com. Put your pet's name and your last name in the subject so the right file is found, and attach one clear page per pet. Phones photograph paper well; flatten the page and avoid shadows. Your veterinarian's office can usually email the record directly to you in minutes. Many clinics also have a patient portal where you can download the vaccination history as a PDF, which is clearer than a photograph of a paper certificate. ## Option 3: bring a copy Bring a paper copy to the first check-in. Allow extra time on a first visit, because a new client also completes the boarding agreement. The agreement is needed once, even with an online account. The [agreement page](https://happypawskennels.com/boarding-contract/) has the form. Keep the original at home. The kennel needs a copy on file, not the certificate itself, and your dog may need the original for licensing or travel. ## What the record must show - Your pet's name and your name. - Each required vaccine with the date given. - An expiration or due date that falls after your pick-up day. - The clinic name or veterinarian's signature. - For canine influenza, the first dose date and the booster date once given. ## After a booster Send an updated record whenever your pet gets a booster, so the file stays current. Questions about what your pet needs belong with your veterinarian. Please call 707-678-6600 to confirm for your pet. The [readiness checker](https://happypawskennels.com/tools/vaccine-readiness-checker/) and [requirements page](https://happypawskennels.com/vaccination-requirements/) list every vaccine. ### Sources (checked October 19, 2026) - [Happy Paws Kennels vaccination requirements](https://happypawskennels.com/vaccination-requirements/) - [Happy Paws Kennels contact page](https://happypawskennels.com/contact/) ### Before your first stay - [Vaccination records](https://happypawskennels.com/vaccination-requirements/) current through pick-up day - A signed [boarding agreement](https://happypawskennels.com/boarding-contract/) - Pets 16 weeks or older - [Bring nothing but your pet](https://happypawskennels.com/what-to-bring/) ### Visit or call 6677 Midway Road, Dixon, CA 95620 [707-678-6600](tel:+17076786600) | Drop-off and pick-up, every day | 7:30 to 11:30 AM and 2:00 to 5:00 PM | | --- | --- | | Tours, every day (no appointment) | 9:00 to 11:00 AM and 2:00 to 4:00 PM | [Book a stay](https://happypawskennels.propetware.com/customerLogin) ### Related - [Vaccination requirements](https://happypawskennels.com/vaccination-requirements/) - [Book a stay](https://happypawskennels.com/book/) - [New clients: first-stay plan](https://happypawskennels.com/new-clients/) - [Boarding agreement](https://happypawskennels.com/boarding-contract/) - [Vaccine readiness checker](https://happypawskennels.com/tools/vaccine-readiness-checker/) - [How far ahead to vaccinate before a stay](https://happypawskennels.com/vaccines/timing-before-boarding/) ## Is my pet ready?
