Worth noting

Allegation of weight loss and unprofessional conduct

my frenchie came out looking like a sack of bones, very skinny... Jerry came up to my face yelling how I have been ”a huge pain in his ass”

Organization/Lost Items(2 mentions)

Weren't exactly ready for me to pick dogs up... Didn't get home with a blue chew toy.

Payment Surcharges(2 mentions)

They do add a small fee for credit/debit cards as the rate per transaction has gone up.
