What Reviews Say

40 reviews analyzed

Paws Club enjoys overwhelmingly positive reviews with 32 of 40 reviews giving 5 stars. Customers praise the loving staff, high level of supervision (no fight injuries), and dogs consistently returning happy and exhausted. Many clients are loyal for years (up to 10+ years). However, there are serious red flags: one dog required stitches from a play incident with no owner follow-up, another reviewer reported dogs in outdoor cages with no enrichment, and prong collars were left on dogs for extended periods. The main facility complaint is the asphalt yard which injured one dog's paw pads. The lack of owner responses to reviews (0%) is notable given the serious nature of some complaints.

Worth noting

Dog injured at facility requiring stitches, no follow-up call to owner

My dog ended up needing stitches from 'a puppy getting her ear'... they did not call to check on my dog once (and this happened almost 2weeks ago)

Dogs left in cages outside with no toys or grass, possible neglect

Heard dogs barking non stop looked over to see two locked in cage outside no toys no grass. Was really concerned and disturbed debated calling animal control.

Prong collar left on dog for 8+ hours on multiple occasions

Two separate times I picked my dog up and her prong collar was still on her, after being there for 8+ hours.

Asphalt play area unsuitable for some dogs

I didn't realize that it is an asphalt yard for them to play in... She tore up the pads on the bottom of her feet and is limping around today.

Quick dismissal of new/difficult dogs without acclimation effort

I didn't even get 5 minutes away before getting a phone call stating that she wasn't going to work out... They just weren't willing to get her to that point.
