Costner Canine Training: Client Agreement for Socialization Sessions

Service Description:  

Costner Canine Training (“Trainer”) will provide supervised socialization sessions for the Client’s dog while being boarded or participating in day play at Lake Wylie Pet Resort. These sessions will last for 30 minutes and involve supervised play with another dog, which will either be Trainer's certified dog or the manager's dog at the facility. 


Purpose of Services:  

The main objective of the socialization sessions is to create a friendly and safe environment with a certified dog trainer, ensuring that both dogs can socialize appropriately and aid in developing their ability to interact positively with other dogs. The Client understands that there is no guarantee of specific outcomes from these sessions.

Liability Waiver:  

The Trainer shall not be held liable for any damage or injuries that may occur to the Client's dog or any dog involved in the socialization sessions. The Client agrees to assume full responsibility for any medical expenses, pet bills, or other costs incurred due to injuries sustained by their dog or any other dog involved during these sessions. As a third-party service provider, Costner Canine Training is not responsible for the care or actions of dogs outside the training context.

Owner Responsibility:  

The Client understands and agrees that socialization is a crucial component of their dog’s development and behavior management. It is important for the Client to continue reinforcing socialization efforts both before and after the scheduled sessions. The Trainer is providing a structured environment for socialization during these sessions, but the effectiveness of this training is contingent upon the Owner's ongoing commitment to engage with their dog and support their social interactions in daily life.

No Guarantees:  

Costner Canine Training cannot guarantee specific outcomes regarding any training or counseling program. The Owner assumes full responsibility for the dog’s behavior during and after the training sessions.

Pricing:  

The cost for each 30 minute socialization session is $25.


Payment

All payments will be collected by Lake Wylie Pet Resort upon arrival and sign in.


Cancellations:  

The Client may postpone any of the lessons provided a twenty-four (24) hour notice is given to the Trainer. A $25 booking deposit must be paid through the website, which will be credited toward the first session price. Failure to give twenty-four (24) hours’ notice of a lesson cancellation will result in the forfeiture of the booking deposit.

Termination of Training:  

The Client may withdraw their dog from training at any time. However, once training has commenced, all fees are non-refundable.

Liability Release:   

The Owner/Agent acknowledges they have read and fully understand this agreement and do hereby waive and release Costner Canine Training from any and all liability of any nature, including injury, death, sickness, or damage their pet may suffer during or after any training program. The Owner/Agent agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Costner Canine Training from any claims related to any damages caused by their pet during or after the training program, including any medical costs incurred for injuries to other dogs involved in the sessions. 

Medical Treatment Authorization:  

The Owner/Agent authorizes emergency medical care to be provided for their dog(s) if necessary. In the event a veterinarian is unavailable, the Owner/Agent authorizes Costner Canine Training to have their dog(s) given emergency medical treatment by any licensed veterinarian of the Trainer’s choosing. The Client will reimburse the Trainer for all charges related to this emergency care, which will be payable within fifteen (15) days of receipt. Additionally, the Owner/Agent agrees to assume full financial responsibility for any damage done by their dog(s) to other dogs involved in the socialization sessions and will cover any medical expenses that arise as a result of such incidents.

Aggressive Behavior Disclaimer:  

The Owner/Agent understands that training outcomes cannot be guaranteed, especially regarding aggressive behavior. The decision to enroll in a training program is made solely at the Owner's discretion, and they accept full responsibility for any damage their dog(s) may cause during or after the training program. The Owner/Agent agrees to follow all recommended safety measures, including muzzling and leashing their dog(s) around people and other dogs.

 Miscellaneous:  

The Owner/Agent is responsible for purchasing all necessary equipment recommended by the Trainer for dog(s) training. If legal counsel is required to protect rights under this agreement, the prevailing party agrees to pay all expenses, including reasonable attorney’s fees. This training agreement represents the full understanding between the parties and cannot be modified unless both parties agree in writing.  

I, as the legal Owner/Agent of the pet(s) noted in this agreement, state that the following information is true and complete to the best of my knowledge. I understand that Costner Canine Training may utilize some or all of this information during the dog(s) training program, and I have taken special care to provide accurate information.
