I also have Rains feet trimmed like a Poodle show dog.. for hygiene reasons and footing on slick floors. Prior to going to the Bark'N Lot I used the services of "Happy Pouch professionals in Kalispell for a year. They did an excellent job, just like Meagan does, but, it wasn't the $7.00 they charge for nail trims that sent me looking elsewhere, it was listening to Rain screaming at the top of her lungs repeatedly!!! I also took my daughter's Dachshund *Rocco with us, the sweetest most trustworthy mini dapple you can imagine, he rolled his lips, snared while having his nails terms. Happy Pooch groomers told both of our dogs to STOP BEING DRAMATIC! Honestly if you want to see with your own eyes how happy Rain and Rocco are to see Megan.. just show up at our standing monthly appointments!!

Amazing People, Amazing Care!…read more I highly recommend The Dog Club. Every employee there is dedicated and passionate about our furry babies and their responsibility to care for them. We were passing through town and needed doggie day care for one day. Susanne, the owner, and her staff were incredibly attentive, accommodating, professional, and most importantly made our furry baby, Karma (an 85 pound 3-year old Airedale) their priority. Karma's meet-and-greet was done with utmost care and concern for not only Karma but all the other canine's being cared for that day. Our plans changed and they were very flexible, even offered to pick up Karma in the morning for a small fee that was very reasonable. Even though the meet/greet went well I was a bit nervous leaving her. When I called in later that morning, the staff gave me a thorough update on her status. I appreciated the straightforward honesty of which karma was doing OK it just took her a while to settle in. The staff said they were working with her to find the most appropriate dogs for her to play with and did some puzzles with her to get her to relax. When we picked Karma up in the afternoon she was very happy.

**Extremely Disappointed and Concerned About Safety Practices**…read more I had taken my 9-month-old Rottweiler to The Dog Club for several months, trusting that he was in a safe and professionally managed environment. Unfortunately, I later learned that the owner had knowingly allowed a highly reactive--borderline aggressive--Sheltie to interact with the general dog population for over two years. I first became aware of this dog's unstable behavior during a Saturday class led by one of the trainers, and I had hoped the situation was being responsibly managed. It was not. Eventually, I received a call notifying me that my pup had been involved in an "altercation." What actually happened was far more serious. The aggressive Sheltie had lunged at another dog, rebounded into my Rottie, and when my dog tried to set a boundary, the Sheltie escalated. My dog was left traumatized and had visible scabs on his neck after the encounter. As is often the case, the larger dog was unfairly blamed. The fact that this Sheltie had a long history of reactivity--and was still being allowed to roam freely among other dogs--is completely unacceptable. Using the general dog population as a "buffer" for this Sheltie's behavior was reckless and dangerous. Most reputable daycares would never allow this dog to remain in group settings, let alone for two years. To make matters worse, when I met with the owner to express my concerns, she took absolutely no accountability. Her proposed "solution" was to isolate my Rottie behind a gated area where he could watch other dogs play, while staff would spend one hour a day with him--an arrangement she admitted was also being used for the Sheltie. In other words, my well-adjusted, social dog was being punished for defending himself against an unstable dog who should never have been in group play in the first place. The Dog Club failed my dog, and I would strongly caution other dog owners--especially those with large breeds--to think twice before trusting this facility with their pets' well-being. The owner herself even stated that her staff cannot handle my Rottie as he is "too Strong". That should probably be put in her advertisement then!

I found Happy Pooch just as a "get me by" - it became too apparent that groomer assigned to me had very little knowledge of the basic standards of grooming poodles - after making a major error on my dog's leg pom - I examined closely when getting home - one leg half shaved and the other with deep razor marks - a skin burn - constant shaking of head meaning water in her ears - unfortunately a lot more to write - when I called groomer to stop by and show them the mistakes, not even asking for return of money or a threat to leave they called and left a message saying they did not want us a client any longer. In reality they did me a favor - their shop is too small/crowded for intake of dogs at once - parking is dangerous and I was even side swiped in the parking lot of puddles and mud - I would not recommend Happy Pooch Professionals LLC to anyone - not worth just "getting you by".

From Scruffy to Fluffy!…read more I took my two spoiled Pomeranians here as we've been in Kalispell for 4 weeks, and they were DIRTY! It made me very nervous to take my pups to someone new, as they've only ever gone to one groomer back in San Jose. The ladies were super nice, and I am pleased to say they did a great job and followed my instructions to just trim their little feet, and not their entire body. Upon picking them up, they both seemed happy, which matters! They are clean, smell good and they did a great job brushing them out. Definitely will come back next time I'm in the area (which is a lot) with my dogs.

Our show dogs beautiful coat was completely shaved off which they did not have permission to do. They claim our dog was matted which was a lie. They most likely washed her without brushing her out first which can cause matting. Bouviers are supposed to have the ears shaved tightly and they left longer hair on the ears and forgot to trim her nails. Basically they butchered our dogs grooming and now we will have to cancel all her spring dog shows because it'll take 6+ months to grow her coat back! Unacceptable. I cannot recommend this place and will not be returning.

We had never boarded our dogs before, so I was very apprehensive, but after reading several positive reviews, decided to make a reservation with Three Dog Ranch. We have two large great Pyrenees mixes so I requested that they be boarded in their own double bunkhouse. The staff were very kind and attentive and took the time to get to know our dogs and their unique personalities. I was able to enjoy the concert with my husband and when we picked our dogs up the following morning, they seemed happy and healthy. They did not appear distressed, and I am assuming they had a wonderful sleepover full of excitement because they slept hard the next day. Thank you Three Dog Ranch for taking such good care of my fur babies and allowing my husband and I to have a good time at the concert.

This was our first time using Three Dog Ranch, and also our dog's first time boarding. I feel…read morefortunate that he didn't have any injuries or accidents requiring a vet visit for now. I do believe their staff work to keep the dogs safe. However, when we picked up our dog, his whole body still smelled strongly of urine, and parts of him were still not dry. I could even see his paw prints in it. We dropped him off clean, so it's concerning to think he might have been sitting in urine during the days of boarding. Another issue was their internal communication. We arranged via email with Steph to drop off medication that needed to be given the morning after our pickup day (my email was titled "Aug. 11 for our dog"). But when we picked him up, a staff member at the Whitefish location said he read "Aug. 14" on the note and didn't administer the medication. They never called or checked with us to clarify. While these may seem like small details, I had higher expectations before choosing this place. I wouldn't say they neglected the dogs, but there are definitely areas--like communication and cleanliness--that could be improved.

I would give them no stars if I could…read more Our second visit to the GF store was a huge disappointment. We booked a different groomer this time, and right away she refused to groom my 50 lb shepherd mix--first because of shedding (which is exactly why we made the appointment), then claiming my 11-year-old dog was "too old." When I asked for a better explanation, the manager backed her up instead of addressing the issue. Meanwhile, my dachshund had already been taken back. When I picked her up--after paying a high price--it didn't look like she'd been properly bathed. She still had visible dander, smelled like she'd just been sprayed, and her feet weren't cleaned. It's hard to believe she received the full service. Before leaving, I saw my shepherd mix in the grooming area, calmly being combed on the table. Later, the manager told me she was "too difficult" and wouldn't allow grooming--even though she hadn't even been bathed. That didn't match what I witnessed. Between the poor service, lack of honesty, and overall treatment, I won't be returning. I'll be taking this complaint to upper management. I wouldn't trust this store or that groomer with my dogs.
