Immediately upon picking them up, I noticed visible injuries that were not present when I dropped…read morethem off. One of my dogs had a bloody toe and scratches around her mouth, and my other dog had a scratched and irritated nose. These injuries were apparent right away, which raises serious concern as to how they occurred and why I was not notified by staff at any point during their stay. If these injuries happened while my dogs were in your care, I would have expected staff to notice them and contact me promptly. The lack of communication and explanation gives the impression that my dogs were not being adequately monitored, which I find unacceptable and unprofessional. Because of this experience, I have lost confidence in the level of care provided and will not be returning my dogs to your facility. I believe it is important to bring this to your attention so it can be addressed and prevented from happening to other pets in the future.

The Houndlounge will make special accommodations for pets to make them feel comfortable and to make the experience as positive as possible. Grooming should not be about how many animals you can get in your shop in a day but to see how many are relaxed and happy when they come back. A gentle hand can go along way with a fearful baby. So at the Hound Lounge no your baby may not go home with a perfect haircut but they will go home with a great experience, knowing that someone cared enough and did what was best for them .

My wife and I have taken our two 12-year-old dogs to American Pet Resort since we moved to New Bern…read more2 years ago for both boarding and daycare services. Though expensive, we have had nothing but good experiences keeping our dogs with them until most recently. One of our dogs, a very social and well behaved West Highland terrier, was banned from spending any time with other dogs on the 2nd day of a 7-day stay after bitting another dog. He spent 6 out of the 7 days of our trip either in the kennel or, for some reason, the hallway outside the kennel while our other dog was in the kennel--a very strange decision given that he's great with our other dog. Why not have them in the same space? Though my Westie has never shown signs of violence or aggressiveness before, I realize the need for them to be careful and protect the other dogs, but no one at American Pet Resort contacted us to tell us what had occurred. We learned after looking at the online cameras. There we saw our Westie confined to his kennel while all the other dogs, including our second dog, were playing outside. Why didn't someone from the kennel call us to let us know? That kind of proactive communication is something I expect. I was none too pleased to find out what happened only after having to make a call to find out why our Westie was left alone in his kennel during outside time. While away, I made a call suggesting the staff place my Westie and my second dog in a separate outdoor space with one another. The staff member I spoke to said they would do so, but they only did so once. Our Westie spent the next 5 days out of our 7 day trip in either in his kennel or the hallway (?) just outside of the kennel, and has been banned from outdoor play with other dogs during future visits. We will make sure that there will be no future visits.

THIS PLACE IS AMAZING!!! I made an appointment for 9am with Mary and she did such an excellent job with Buttercup.

My baby smells, looks, and (I bet) feels so good! Price wise as well it's very reasonable and time management is handled in a fashionably order. Overall, it took about 2 hours! Definitely recommend.
