Terms of Service
Effective Date: October 19, 2026
Welcome to Where Dogs Thrive. These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of our website, https://www.wheredogsthrive.com (the “Website”).
The Website is operated by Where Dogs Thrive (“we,” “our,” or “us”), a dog training business serving Huntington Beach, California, and surrounding communities.
By accessing or using this Website, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, please discontinue use of the Website.
1. Purpose of This Website
This Website provides information about Where Dogs Thrive, our puppy and dog training services, our training philosophy, and ways to contact us or inquire about working together.
The information on this Website is intended for general informational and educational purposes. Visiting the Website or contacting us through it does not, by itself, establish a client relationship or guarantee the availability of our services.
2. Dog Training Information Disclaimer
We provide information about dog training, canine behavior, puppy development, and related topics to help dog guardians make informed decisions.
Every dog is an individual. Training outcomes may vary depending on the dog’s age, temperament, history, environment, health, consistency of training, and other factors.
Information provided on this Website is not a guarantee of specific behavioral or training results. Website content is not a substitute for individualized professional assessment or veterinary care when appropriate.
If your dog exhibits aggression, severe fear, sudden behavioral changes, or other potentially dangerous behaviors, seek appropriate professional assistance. Consult a licensed veterinarian regarding medical concerns or behavioral changes that may have a medical cause.
3. No Guarantee of Results
Although we strive to provide helpful, effective, and responsible dog training guidance, we cannot guarantee that every dog will achieve a particular outcome or respond to training in the same way.
Successful training requires appropriate practice, consistency, and participation from the dog’s guardian. Any descriptions of training programs, methods, or potential benefits are provided for informational purposes and should not be interpreted as a promise of guaranteed results.
4. Appointments and Training Services
Information on this Website about our services, programs, availability, and pricing may change without notice.
Submitting a contact form, sending an email, or requesting a consultation does not guarantee acceptance as a client or reserve an appointment unless we confirm the arrangement.
When you engage our dog training services, the terms governing your training sessions, fees, cancellations, safety requirements, and other client responsibilities will be set out in the applicable Dog Training Agreement or other written agreement.
If these Website Terms conflict with a separately signed client agreement concerning the training services covered by that agreement, the signed agreement will govern those services to the extent permitted by law.
5. Website Use and User Conduct
You agree to use this Website only for lawful purposes. You may not:
-
Use the Website in a way that violates applicable laws or regulations.

Attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Website, its systems, or related accounts.

Use our contact forms to submit fraudulent, unlawful, threatening, or abusive material.
We reserve the right to take reasonable steps to protect the Website and our business from misuse.

You may view and print Website content for your own personal, noncommercial use.
You may not reproduce, republish, distribute, modify, sell, or commercially exploit our content without our prior written permission, except where applicable law permits such use.
The name Where Dogs Thrive, our logo, and our original branding may not be used in a way that suggests an affiliation, endorsement, or partnership without our permission.
7. Third-Party Links and Services
Our Website may include links to third-party websites, booking platforms, social media pages, payment providers, or other services for your convenience.
We do not control or guarantee the accuracy, availability, security, or privacy practices of third-party websites and services. Your interactions with those providers are subject to their own terms and policies.
The inclusion of a third-party link does not necessarily constitute an endorsement of that provider or its services.

We make reasonable efforts to keep our Website information accurate and current. However, we do not guarantee that all content will always be complete, accurate, current, or available without interruption.
We may update, modify, suspend, or discontinue any part of the Website at any time.
Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits any rights or remedies that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited.
10. Limitation of Liability
To the extent permitted by applicable law, Where Dogs Thrive will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages arising from or related to your use of, or inability to use, this Website.
We are not responsible for decisions made solely on the basis of general information published on the Website without considering the circumstances of the individual dog or situation.
Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability where such exclusion or limitation is prohibited by law, including liability that cannot lawfully be waived under California law.
These Website Terms do not replace or expand any separate written agreement governing our dog training services.
11. Indemnification
To the extent permitted by applicable law, you agree to be responsible for losses or reasonable costs arising from your unlawful misuse of the Website or your material violation of these Terms, where such responsibility is legally enforceable.
Nothing in this section requires you to indemnify us for our own negligence, misconduct, or liability where such an obligation would be prohibited by law.
12. California Law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to its conflict-of-law principles, except where applicable law requires otherwise.
Any dispute relating to these Terms will be handled in a court of competent jurisdiction as permitted by applicable law. Nothing in this section limits any rights you may have under mandatory consumer protection laws.
13. Changes to These Terms
We may revise these Terms from time to time to reflect changes to our Website, business practices, or legal requirements.
The updated version will be posted on this page with a revised Effective Date. Your continued use of the Website after updated Terms are posted constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms only to the extent recognized by applicable law.
