What Reviews Say

67 reviews analyzed

Darling Dogs is a highly polarizing facility with a significant base of loyal, long-term clients who praise the clean, modern facilities and effective training programs. However, a small but serious cluster of reviews alleges extreme medical negligence regarding senior dogs and puppies, often met with defensive or dismissive responses from the owner. While most dogs return home happy and tired, the facility's reputation is split between glowing local recommendations and high-severity safety concerns.

Worth noting

Severe medical neglect/Weight loss

Sophie had lost enough weight that her ribs and backbone were clearly protruding... her stomach was expanded three times the normal size and was full of food.

Puppy mortality (Breeding)

I purchased a Morkie puppy for $1800, picked him up just before Christmas and 4 days later he died.

Perceived lack of security

The property is not secure—there were visible holes in the fence, which is a serious safety issue.

Defensive/Aggressive Owner Response

Rips her glasses off, snarls in my wife’s face about being late... She was a total ass.

Health issues post-stay

He had lost over 10% of his body weight and was diagnosed with severe pancreatitis.
