Intact Dog Policy

Surcharge for Intact Dogs Over 6 Months Old

Boarding: $10/Night

Daycare: $5/Day

Many boarding & daycare facilities do not allow dogs who are intact (not spayed or neutered) to participate in group socialization. At Passage East, however, our veteran team will do their best to give your intact dog the opportunity socialize with furry friends as long as play remains safe and appropriate.

If your dog begins to exhibit behaviors that are disruptive to the group dynamic or pose a risk to our other guests, you will be asked to choose from ourindividual playtime optionsor sign your dog up for our Extra Playtime Package during their stay.

The zeuterin injection is a non-surgical alternative to neutering. 

Because this procedure eliminates reproductive abilities but not behavior, we consider "zeutered" dogs to be intact.

We cannot accept female dogs who are actively in heat for boarding or daycare.

Please be aware of your dog’s heat cycle and keep this in mind when planning their visit, as they won't always display symptoms.

​If we find your dog starts her cycle while here, we will ask you to pick her up - if this is not possible, she will be housed in a separate boarding section at an additional nightly fee to prevent any disruption to the regular kennel activity & will need to be signed up for our individual playtime services.
