Template FAQs
Common questions about the Pre-Boarding Temperament & Health Assessment Form — what it captures, when to use it, and how to make it your own.
Why assess a pet before boarding?
Because a kennel environment suits some pets more easily than others. Checking temperament and health first means each pet is placed in the right accommodation and handled in the way that keeps it safe and settled.
What does the assessment cover?
Behaviour around other animals and staff, anxiety or escape history, toileting and feeding habits, and any health conditions, mobility issues or senior needs — mapped so staff know how to care for the pet.
What if my pet is nervous or reactive?
That’s exactly what the assessment is for. Knowing in advance lets staff give a nervous pet quieter accommodation, extra reassurance and careful handling, rather than discovering it on arrival.
Do senior or unwell pets need an assessment?
Yes — it helps staff accommodate mobility issues, medication and the extra care older or health-compromised pets need to be comfortable during a stay.
Does a difficult assessment mean you won't take my pet?
Not usually — it means the kennel can plan properly, or advise if a different kind of care would suit better. It’s about the right fit, not a pass or fail.
Is the assessment form free?
Yes — free with a Fun Forms account, fully customisable, and ready to complete before a first stay.
