What Reviews Say
94 reviews analyzedCanines Canyon is highly regarded for its spacious outdoor environment and a staff that genuinely knows dogs by name, with particular praise for their groomer, Jen. While most clients report happy, tired dogs and excellent emergency protocols during local wildfires, there are significant localized complaints regarding the owner's handling of medical disputes and breed-specific bans. Overall, it is a favored 'mountain camp' style facility for social dogs, though some owners of sensitive pets noted behavioral changes after large-group play.

Dispute over medical bills and illness liability
“I was then told that they don't pay vet bills, but gave me a credit for future care... the owner decided it was a good time to berate and belittle me in front of other customers.”
Behavioral regression/aggression after group play
“ever since we started boarding ours at Canine's Canyon, he picked up some bad behavior traits like aggression, threatening to bite, etc.”
Kennel Cough/Bordatella(2 mentions)
“We finally decided to stop sending him here after he got Bordatella two visits in a row.”
Breed Restrictions(2 mentions)
“To have breed restrictions in this day and age is so disappointing, and says a lot about this establishment.”
Grooming quality/accuracy
“My pup was not cut as instructed, uneven everywhere, and they tried to give my husband back the wrong dog.”
