Waiver, Assumption of Risk, and Agreement to Hold Harmless

I further understand that my personal dog is also at risk, if he/she attends the course, is on the property during the running of the Instructor Training Courses or that I may bring home an illness due to working directly with the shelter dogs. I understand that some of the dogs I may be exposed to or work with may be difficult to control and may cause injury even when handled with the greatest amount of care. I further understand that some of these dogs have unknown histories and their actions can not be predicted.
I hereby waive and release Dana. C. Crevling, Dogs of Course, the Instructor Training Courses, any co-hosts, the animal shelter the course is located at, any animal shelter or rescue group that provided the animal, all previous owners of the animal, and any of the above mentioned employees, owners, and agents from any and all liability of any nature for injury or damage which I or my dog may suffer, including specifically, but not without limitation, any injury or damage resulting from the action of any dog, and I expressly assume the risk of any such damage or injury while attending the Instructor Training Courses, while supervising or interacting with the dog off property or while on the grounds or surrounding area thereto.
I further accept responsibility for the shelter dog should I choose to take the dog off property for an overnight visit or at any other time. I agree not to leave the dog alone in the hotel room unattended, and will be responsible for any and all damage the dog may create while under my supervision.
