Let's get to know each other better! I'd love to hear more about your dog and learn about their needs

Book a Meet and Greet

Thank you for choosing Northern Dog!

We’re so excited to meet you and your furry friend. To ensure we provide the best care and experiences during our time together, we’d love to learn more about your dog.

Here are a few things you could share:

Basic Info: Name, breed, age, and gender.
Personality: What’s their temperament like? Are they shy, playful, or a little of both?
Likes & Dislikes: Do they love belly rubs, certain toys, or particular treats? Any sounds, places, or things they avoid?
Health & Safety: Do they have any allergies, medical conditions, or special needs?
Behavior: Are they good with other dogs? Any quirks we should know about (e.g., leash pulling, barking, or chasing squirrels)?
Commands & Training: What commands do they know? Are there any routines or rules we should follow?

Feel free to share as much or as little as you’re comfortable with. Every dog is unique, and we can’t wait to make sure your pup has a great time with us!
