The State of Iowa is requires that we keep copies of both the rabies certificate and DAPPV vaccination records on file for dogs taking classes in the building. Bring copies that we can keep (or email them in advance). You will also need to provide new copies every time you start a new session. We can only accept vaccination records from a veterinarian.

All dogs over the age of 12 weeks must have a rabies vaccination and certificate. This is a state law we are required to follow.
