    I have come here often to bring in injured animals, but never looked at the ambassadors or look around at what they actually do. I know what they do and follow them on Facebook, but never actually saw anything with my own eyes. We were making a donation when someone asked if we had ever seen the ambassadors. She told us where to go and we were on our way to seeing some of the most beautiful creatures we have ever seen in person. The ambassadors are birds that cannot be released back into the wild. Some have been there for over a decade. There are signs telling you about the ambassador. Be sure to be very quiet so they are not scared by your sudden presence. This was very informational and we thoroughly enjoyed the short tour. We decided to become a sponsor of an ambassador.

    Well worth the 10 minute drive from Ogunquit. Unique opportunity to see wild animals being rehabilitated. Albino Porcupine Devine!

    My dog stayed here for four nights and unfortunately came home covered in feces and urine. He is…read moreonly four months old and, when we booked his stay, we specifically communicated that he needed to be fed breakfast, lunch, and dinner. According to his Paw Report, he was only fed five times during his entire four-night stay. He should have been fed approximately 15 times. The amount of food that was returned to us made it very clear that he had not been fed anywhere near what we had provided or instructed. As a four-month-old puppy, this was extremely upsetting to see. Unfortunately, that was not the only concerning issue. My parents' two intact male dogs stayed at the facility during the same period. One came home with extremely inflamed and infected testicles. I understand that this is a sensitive detail, but it is important to mention because this is actually the second time this has happened to one of their dogs after staying at this facility. The first occurrence was earlier this year, and we initially assumed it was an isolated incident. After it happened again, we became much more concerned. We do not know the cause, and I don't want to speculate, but we have questions about the cleaning products or whether floors and surfaces are being allowed to fully dry before dogs are put back into the area. Both my parents and I attempted to contact the facility to speak with a manager and simply understand what happened. I spoke with a gentleman, I believe his name was Tyler, for quite some time and made it very clear that I was not looking to cause an issue. I simply wanted answers and an explanation. I was told that a manager would contact me the following day. No one ever did. My parents also attempted to follow up and were unable to get answers. Our veterinarian actually recommended that we share our experience because of the infection. What makes this particularly frustrating is that the concerns started from the beginning, with the number of add-ons and packages presented when booking and deciding what level of care your dog receives. It felt like the focus was on upselling services rather than making sure the basic needs of the dogs were being met. I would never feel comfortable boarding my dog here again. Four nights should not result in a four-month-old puppy coming home covered in urine and feces and apparently receiving only a fraction of the food he was supposed to receive. Combined with the lack of communication and the medical issue involving my parents' dogs, this experience has completely destroyed our trust in the facility.

    We used Barking Dog several years ago for daycare and boarding of our two dogs. Nearly every time…read moreat pick up, they had to pee so badly it lasted for what seemed like 5minutes, and were so thirsty they drank 2 bowls of water. There was also urine or feces on their bedding after boarding- with no explanation or apology offered. We stopped going there. After nearly 10 years, and with a new puppy, we thought we would give BD another try. Practically from day 1, things were poor. The "Live" video never worked. When it did, it showed the dogs running around with one staff standing against a wall and on their cell phone. We scheduled our puppy for a bath- it never happened. A couple of weeks ago, we boarded our puppy for 1 overnight. I arrived at 8am (when they open), staff was not ready. I waited, along with 10 other parents, for my puppy to be brought down, and was told he hadn't been fed breakfast. I noticed he was wet, but it wasn't until I got him to the car that I realized it was urine, and all of his bedding was saturated with urine. When I got him home, I noticed that all of the food I pre-packaged for him, was still in the bag. He hadn't been fed at all while in their care! I had really hoped BD had changed, but it's obvious that they haven't. It's clear they don't hire competent staff or train them properly. I would not recommend anyone bringing their dog there! Yelp is making me rate BD with a Star- I wouldn't give one if I didn't have to!
