What Reviews Say
331 reviews analyzedGreen Beagle Lodge is overwhelmingly beloved by clients, with the vast majority of 331 reviews giving 5 stars. Dogs are described as excited to arrive and returning happy and exhausted. The facility is praised for its cleanliness, beautiful outdoor spaces, and pool. Staff are consistently described as caring, knowledgeable, and providing excellent communication with photo updates. However, there are notable red flags including several injury incidents, a kennel cough outbreak with delayed notification, a medication error, and a cat death after boarding. These serious issues are offset by the owner's responsive communication and attempts to address concerns. The main complaints are about limited availability, price increases, and occasional communication failures. Long-term loyalty is very high, with many clients using the facility for years.

Worth noting
Dog injured at daycare requiring veterinary care/hospitalization
โOur dog was recently injured at their doggy daycare and needed to spend a night in the hospital after being picked up. Unfortunately, her injury requires surgery with a lengthy recovery period.โ
Kennel cough/Bordetella outbreak with delayed notification
โ4 days later my dog started exhibiting breathing issues, 6 days later I had to take my service dog to the emergency room. 7 days later I received an email from the lodge indicating that they had been having Bordetella- Kennel Cough issues for weeks.โ
Medication administration error
โthe staff did not give her any of her two medications. One medication is required daily and was provided in an unopened box and the box was returned to me unopenedโ
Dog left in unsanitary conditions (urine-soaked)
