What Reviews Say
75 reviews analyzedHappy Paws Pet Resort is largely praised for its recent change in ownership, which has resulted in a cleaner facility and a highly attentive staff that handles high-needs dogs well. However, the facility faces serious allegations regarding health and safety, including a cluster of kennel cough cases and one extreme report of a pet fatality. While the majority of customers report happy, tired dogs, a small subset of reviewers describes the staff as dismissive or uncommunicative when issues arise.
