Canine U Cancellation Policy
I understand that if I wish to cancel, I must give notice to MVHS at least 1 week (5 business days) prior to the first class meeting in order to receive a full refund. If I wish to transfer to another class after the first class meeting, I understand that there is a $25 transfer fee. Any refunds or waiver of fees will be given at the discretion of MVHS.

Canine U Waiver, Assumption of Risk and Hold Harmless Agreement
I understand that attendance at a dog training class of any kind is not without risk to myself, members of my family or guests who may attend, or my dog, because some of the dogs to which I (we) may be exposed may be difficult to control and may be the cause of injury or illness even when handled with the greatest of care. I agree that I will abide by all safety rules and requests provided by the Minnesota Valley Humane Society’s employees and representatives.

I hereby waive all claims for damage and release and forever discharge the Minnesota Valley Humane Society (MVHS) and all other Canine U locations, their directors, officers, employees, instructors, assistants, volunteers, and representatives from any and all claims, damages, losses, or liabilities of any nature, for injury or damage which I, my dog, or my guests may suffer in connection with my attendance or participation in training sessions or my presence MVHS or any other Canine U location, including specifically, but not without limitation, any injury or damage resulting from the action of any dog. I expressly assume the risk of such damage or injury when attending any training sessions or other function, or while on the training grounds or the surrounding area thereto.

I hereby agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless MVHS and all other Canine U locations, their directors, officers, employees, instructors, assistants, volunteers, and representatives from any and all claims, damages, losses or liabilities, whatsoever arising out of or resulting from (1) my presence at or participation in any training session or other function while at MVHSor any other Canine U location or the surrounding areas thereto, (2) the presence at or participation by any member of my family or any other person accompanying me to any training session or other function while on the grounds or the surrounding area thereto and (3) any action by any dog, including my own.

I hereby give my permission to MVHS to use my name and/or photo for publicity purposes. Publicity may include publication in our website, mail pieces and other promotional materials as well as in press releases to media.
