Worth noting

Dog severely injured during July 4th fireworks - claws ripped out of paws, several teeth broken

โ€œOn the 4th of July, my dog was hurt badly while left alone for 9+ hours.. During FIREWORKS!! His claws were ripped out of his paws, and several teeth were broken and had to be removed.โ€

Severe ear infection/neglect - dog developed hematoma the size of an orange, suffered for days

โ€œHe was VIOLENTLY ripping and tearing at his ear incessantly to the point that he had developed a hematoma the size of an ORANGE in his pinna. THAT bad of an infection did NOT happen overnight.โ€

Dog kept in solitary confinement, staff lied about playtime and food intake

โ€œThey told me my dog would get to play with the other dogs... That was a lie, he was in solitary confinement for two days... They lied to me about how much food my dog was eating.โ€

Dogs traumatized - separated despite request, no beds in kennels, next to aggressive dogs

โ€œWe asked them to be kenneled together... both dogs were SEPARATED... the male who eats everything and rapidly... didn't even touch the food, a clear and obvious sign he was scared... did not even contain bedsโ€

Dog returned filthy, overweight, and behaving differently

โ€œMy dog came home filthy... FAT and acting like she had been beaten... I do not believe they exercise the dogs at all... she gains over 10lbs at this place?โ€

Flea infestation after boarding

โ€œAfter his overnight stay we have noticed quite a few fleas and we are now on our second flea bathโ€

Price too high/expensive(6 mentions)

โ€œOnly negative is the price tag! Very expensive.โ€

Phone responsiveness/not returning calls(4 mentions)

โ€œEvery time I call the recorded message says they are busy... I have left two messages for the past two days and no call back.โ€

Not listening to special needs/requests(3 mentions)

โ€œThey don't listen to what I told them about my dog's special needs... I told them... my dog doesn't like men so both times they called up a man to work with her.โ€

Facility transparency/tours(3 mentions)

โ€œWhen I went in and asked for a tour i was treated very poorly, and told my dog or my kids couldn't go on a tour with me. She said there is really 'nothing to see'โ€
