Before the first hello
A useful intake explains who is coming, how the dog communicates, and what setup may help the first introduction.
Collect identity, group experience, play style, triggers, and contacts in one submission for staff review.
Show incident follow-ups after a yes response and resident-dog questions only when relevant.
Send each request and its answers to the daycare evaluator, foster coordinator, or adoption team.
Adapt it to the visit
Choose the closest scenario, then edit its fields, meeting location, and routing.
Gather group-play experience, energy, handling notes, contacts, and requested times.
Ask who will attend, which pets live at home, and what adopters want to learn.
Pair the household profile with the dog's routine, cues, equipment, and follow-up plan.
Capture both dogs' greetings, play preferences, space signals, and incident context.
Meet-and-greet workflow
Turn your introduction process into a form with staff review before confirmation.
Name your visit type and the dog, owner, and household details your team reviews.
Add preparation notes, behavior prompts, and required contact and dog-profile fields.
Show follow-up fields for guarding, incidents, or special handling needs.
Share or embed the form and notify the coordinator before a time is confirmed.
Intake vs email vs calendar
A generated intake asks every household the same practical questions before staff prepare the meeting.
Field guide
Use six sections to collect practical context for staff review.
Owner & visit
Collect owner contacts, the visit goal, attendees, and availability. For rescue meetings, ask who from the household can participate.
Dog profile
Use separate profile fields and include options for mixed breeds and unknown rescue histories.
Behavior context
Ask owners to describe greetings, play, recovery after excitement, and signals that the dog needs space.
Triggers & incidents
Ask neutrally about guarding, escape attempts, handling discomfort, bites, or fights. Reveal a private follow-up after a yes answer.
Care records
Request only documents your program reviews. Explain each upload and provide a missing-item follow-up field.
Review & next step
Explain the review process, route the request, and confirm only after a coordinator chooses the setup and time.

Answers for teams and owners preparing a first visit.
It is a pre-visit intake for dog, owner, household, behavior, routine, and scheduling details. Daycares can use it before evaluations, while rescues can adapt it for adopter, foster, or resident-dog introductions.
Ask for the dog's profile, group experience, greeting and play style, handling response, cues, triggers, guarding, escape behavior, and incidents. Use follow-up fields for context.
Do not rely on that label alone. Ask what the dog does around unfamiliar dogs and people, what play looks like, and how the dog signals discomfort.
Yes. A daycare path can request group-play history, documents, and availability. A rescue path can ask about household members, resident pets, attendees, and location. Conditional logic keeps each path concise.
Yes. Add a file-upload field, label the requested document, explain why it is collected, and create follow-up for missing or unreadable files. An upload should not imply automatic approval.
Only if you design it that way. You can label submission as a request, notify the coordinator, review the answers, and send a separate confirmation with time, location, and instructions.
Yes. Makeform is unlimited free for generating, editing, publishing, and collecting responses. The paid tier removes the Makeform badge.
Responses reach your Makeform inbox. Connect Google Sheets, Slack, or Zapier so the daycare evaluator, adoption coordinator, or foster lead sees each request.
Prepare the introduction before the door opens.
