Employee spraying puppy in face with water bottle in cold weather (16°F)

“I watched one of the employees repeatedly spraying my puppy in the face. He was sniffing a wall at the time. It was also 16 F that day.”

Improper grooming - dog left for 7 hours without service, shaved without permission, claws filed incorrectly

“We got our dogs back just before 5pm!!! When I got home my puppy was starving, exhausted, stressed and clearly had been holding his pee in all day long. He is fully shaved down to the skin in multiple parts of his body (which I never asked for) his claws were filed incorrectly and his ears were not plucked.”

Dog handled roughly - grabbed by collar and thrown

“I watched someone grab him by the collar, pull him up in the air, and aggressively throw him out of the room.”

Dogs placed in isolation/time-out for extended periods

“My dog was put in time-out most of the day... Dogs that play 'too rough' will be put in time-out kennels for hours.”
