What Reviews Say
68 reviews analyzedBuddy's Barking Lot is highly regarded for its cage-free environment and exceptional grooming services, with numerous owners reporting their dogs are ecstatic to arrive. However, a small but significant cluster of reviews raises serious concerns regarding sanitation and the management of communicable illnesses like Giardia and Influenza. While the majority of customers are loyal repeats, communication during health incidents or behavioral dismissals appears to be a weak point.
