We usually suggest not sending along items that you or your dog can’t live without if something were to happen to it (such as chewing). We ask that you put some sort of identification on your dog’s collar but you may want to put on an older, not-so-nice collar for his stay at The UltiMutt Inn. Although we supervise playtimes, sometimes the dogs manage to play secret “collar tag”. We also recommend (but not require) bagging up your dog’s food for each meal. This ensures that your dog has enough food for his entire stay. Many owners also send along some extra food, just in case a dog has to stay a night or two longer (due to weather, delayed flight, etc).
