Template FAQs
Common questions about the Kennel Incident, Illness & Vet Visit Report Form — what it captures, when to use it, and how to make it your own.
Why keep incident and illness reports for boarding?
Because a clear, contemporaneous record protects the pet, the owner and the kennel if a question or claim arises. It documents what happened, what was done and who was told — far better than relying on memory.
What should the report include?
The date and time, the pet and its accommodation, what happened, symptoms or injury, the action and first aid taken, any vet visit and advice, whether the owner was contacted, and a staff signature.
When should it be completed?
As soon as possible after the event, while the details are fresh and accurate. Prompt recording is what makes the report reliable.
Should the owner always be contacted?
Any illness, injury or notable incident should be communicated to the owner, and the form records whether and how they were reached, so there’s no ambiguity.
Do minor issues need recording?
Yes — a small upset stomach or a minor scuffle is worth logging. Patterns and context only emerge if the small things are recorded alongside the serious ones.
Is the incident form free?
Yes — free with a Fun Forms account, fully customisable to your process, and ready to use on any device.
