Boarding advice
What to write on dog boarding food labels
Kennel staff should not guess which bag is breakfast or how much to feed. Put the essentials on every bag.
Required on each label
- Dog’s name
- Date or day of stay
- Meal time
- Portion amount
- Allergy warnings (if any)
- Medication-with-meal notes (if any)
- Storage note if needed (for example: refrigerate)
Optional: owner phone number, bag number (1 of 12).
One bag per meal
Do not send one bulk bag for staff to scoop. Use one pre-portioned, labelled bag per meal.
