The Total Off-Grid Experience
Canine Edition

Here are seven (7) basic rules for taking your dog to "The Total Off-Grid Experience Canine Edition".

1. If your dog’s a full-time barker, leave it at home.

Your desire to bring your dog with you does not trump the comfort of other guests. If your little terrier has a tendency to bark incessantly, it’s not wise to bring it along on your trip. Everyone loves their pet, but if there’s a dog that keeps barking the whole time, it’s considerate to pack up and head home. A few barks are fine — they’re dogs, after all — but if it’s constant, your dog might not be suited for vacation.

2. If you leave the room, put up the Do Not Disturb sign.

Most hotels/motels make it clear that you’re not allowed to leave your dog unattended. However, "The Total Off-Grid Experience" understands there are times when it’s necessary. If you opt to leave your pooch alone, check on them regularly to ensure they have plenty of water, especially in the desert. Also, make sure there’s no damage or accidents. Protect hotel employees and yourself by putting up the Do Not Disturb sign. This way, you avoid unnecessary problems.

3. You’re responsible for your dog and whatever trouble they cause.

You’re not a rock star. If your dog has an accident, clean it up and alert the staff. If your furry pal chews up a lamp cord, it’s your responsibility to pay for it. The hotel was kind enough to let you bring your four-legged friend, so ensure it’s a respectful guest.

4. Bring your own food and don’t share the room service.

A dog’s diet needs to be consistent to avoid digestive problems. A hotel stay is no time to experiment with different foods. Pack your dog’s regular food to maintain consistency. Even if you give your dog human food at home, keep the room service to yourself to avoid any health issues.

5. Toys, Beds, and the Comforts of Home

Packing your dog’s bed, toys, and other comforts can make them feel at home. Some dogs are happy anywhere, while others get finicky. Giving them a sense of home can make for a better hotel experience. Your furry friend might be unsure at first, but soon they’ll be chewing bones and laying in the sunlight just like at home.

6. Make it special.

Remember, this is a vacation for Fido too! Even though you’re creating a connection to home with food, toys, and beds, you can still do special things to make it feel like a vacation. If they’re never allowed on the bed at home, maybe make an exception for a night. Take them for a nice, long walk to explore the new surroundings. Creating a fun environment can make your dog look forward to traveling.

7. If your dog is NOT friendly with other dogs or strangers, LEAVE YOUR DOG HOME.

This facility is not a training ground for unruly dogs. If your dog is violent or has violent tendencies, we will cancel your reservation and ask you to leave. Your reservation fee and other fees will be returned, except for taxes. Your deposit will be returned in full. We understand misunderstandings happen, but allowing these types of dogs can cause damage, complaints, or worse, a bite incident.

Dog bites can have severe consequences. In Nevada, strict liability laws hold dog owners accountable for injuries caused by their pets. This means if a dog bites someone, the owner is responsible, regardless of the dog’s past behavior. Victims have the right to seek compensation for medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering. Owners must take precautions to prevent attacks, such as leashing and secure fencing. Even if a dog has no history of aggression, the owner can still be held responsible for a bite.

By following these rules, you and your pooch will have a fantastic time at "The Total Off-Grid Experience Canine Edition"!
