2/3 dogs recommend this place. (The third is our antisocial one who also enjoyed it, but hates pictures)

Tommy P.

Great place. Fair price. We've taken our dogs twice now. Only complaint we have is a boarder in TN we used to use had a webcam you could log into to check on them 24/7. Since that's our biggest complaint, I'd say they did good.

Sarah L.

I am usually not one to complain, but I feel that this needs to be shared publicly. Yesterday morning, I took my dog to Leashes and Leads to be groomed. Around 1:00 pm I received a call from them that I thought would be my notice that they were done grooming him and I could go pick him up. Unfortunately, the call was from the groomer saying that there had been "an accident," and that my dog had been cut. I was told that "the bleeding has stopped, and our vet looked at him, but he will need stitches" and to come get him. Mortified, I rushed over to Leashes and Leads to pick up my dog and although he wasn't bleeding at the time, he was shaking and appeared terrified. I was told I "wouldn't be charged for this grooming" and would receive "50% off the next grooming appointment." This, in itself, was laughable considering the horrific hack job my dog was left with. Not only did he have a gash in his neck, but two of his legs were shaved, random spots had been shaved around his body, and he had one single strip of shaved hair down the middle of his back from the base of his neck to his butt. To be told that I wouldn't be charged for this "grooming" was a giant slap in the face. I alerted the grooming receptionist that I was taking my dog to the vet for stitches and would be sending the bill to them because I would not be paying for the damage to my dog. She vehemently agreed and verbalized that the manager would be calling me very shortly that day to check in on me and my dog. The vet sedated my dog for the procedure, gave him an antibiotic injection, and placed 7 sutures in his neck, right over the jugular vein. He stated that my dog and I are very lucky, because if the cut had been only a few millimeters deeper, his jugular vein would have been nicked and he could have easily bled to death right there. Furthermore, my dog has raw patches of skin and small cuts where he was shaved much too close around his penis, anus, and two spots on his legs. I was advised by the vet to keep these clean and to try to keep my dog from licking them to avoid an infection. Needless to say, I am mortified. I am upset, incredibly mad, and sad that my sweet dog, who used to love getting groomed, has had to endure this traumatic experience. I never received a call from Leashes and Leads yesterday asking how my dog was doing or apologizing for what happened. In fact, I had to reach out to them myself in order to speak with the manager and inform her how bad this situation really could have been, in the hopes that nothing like this ever happens to another pet. The manager apologized, but noted that "these things happen." If that is the case, one would think that Leashes and Leads would be more equipped to handle the situation. I'm not a business owner, but I know that this is not how a business should be run. There was zero follow-up on their end, I had to go to a different facility to have the horrific grooming job fixed, and I can say that I will never EVER take my dog back there again. So no, I won't be needing the "50% off the next grooming appointment," thank you very much. They have yet to pay the vet bill, but I'm hoping Leashes and Leads will do one thing right and pay the $300 bill once this is all said and done. Pet owners, please be advised that grooming accidents can be fatal, and I will only be trusting my beloved pet with a company and dog groomer that takes this seriously.

We took our dog to the dog play care for half a day. He was fine when we dropped him off, but he had an injured leg that he couldn't put any weight on when we got him back. When we picked him up, they said he was fine, but when we went back and confronted them, they admitted they noticed him limping "a little bit." But when he got home, he was not limping "a little bit" - he was limping so bad we had to take him to the ER! And it was so bad that he might need surgery! No more. Our association with Leashes and Leads is done. Please read their waiver before you sign it, as they will try to use it to absolve themselves of any responsibility.

You won't find a nicer dog park in southeastern Minnesota!! I take my pup here for doggy daycare and to the park and she absolutely loves it. She gets to play with dogs her size and energy level which makes her totally pooped when I get home from work and I'm too exhausted to go for a walk . Staff are informed and truly love their customers (aka dogs)!

Terrible customer service. I have a German Shepherd puppy and we took her there to sign her up for daycare. She was excited so she started barking when we entered the facility and instead of the staff being polite and understanding, they were rude and condescending. Not only did I receive dirty looks, but when the woman came to take my dog and she abruptly took the leash from my hand and walked away. I asked for a tour of the facility and was promptly told that wasn't possible. Had I not had major plans that day I would have taken my dog and walked right out the door. Do not recommend. read more

We heard great things about leashes and leads from several friends who take their pets often. Our puppy loves other dogs, so we were very excited for him to get to play. We would not recommend this boarding to anyone. When we picked up our dog after an overnight on Sunday morning at 11:30, he couldn't even wait to get to the car without peeing all over the driveway. He never pees outside of the grassed area. His pee was a bright yellow and he peed so much that he was stepping in it. This leads us to believe that he was not let out for some time as he only ever pees that much in the morning after 8 hours of sleeping through the night. He smelled so bad that we had to give him a bath immediately when we got home. The stench of pee was terrible. I understand him smelling like other dogs from playing but this smell was terrible. It smelled like he had an accident and sat in it all night long. Peed and fur don't mix and this smell was very strong. Our puppy is six months old. We feel horrible to think that he had to hold his bladder for an extended amount of time. We also noticed a small sore on his inner thigh a few hours after we picked him up. We were told the company would be in contact with us and 3 weeks later we still haven't heard from them. We wouldn't recommend leashes and leads to anyone. Very disappointed in this service. We will never go back. read more

Terrible customer service. My dogs become sick every time after a visit to their boarding kennel. They will deny/hide any illnesses that has spread. They are never honest and upfront. I have spent a fortune on vets bills due to their facility. I question how well that check vaccine record and clean the kennels. One of my dogs got kennel cough from a visit. read more

DO NOT BOARD YOUR DOG HERE!!! They do not follow the simplest of instructions, and quite obviously do not find your pet's feelings valuable. We took our beloved child here to be cared for when we were to be out of town until the following morning. We had been warned by close friends of the lack of care of their 'children' when they were on vacation, however we have done a decent amount of business with this place in the past, and wanted to give them a chance. I was cautious however, and wanted to know if our friend's warnings were the byproduct of a single slacking employee at that time (which was several months ago), or was a larger problem. The only 'above normal' instructions given to the staff for the care of our puppy was to treat him after going potty, and to give him his blanket to sleep with, the one he sleeps with every night. To be fair, they apparently did give him his treats, as the number of the treats we provided had dwindled by the proper amount, however I was very upset by the blatant disregard of our puppy's comfort. I had carefully folded his blanket we provided, and took pictures of several key identifiers to be 100% sure I knew how I had folded it (it has writing on it, so this was quite easy) When I looked at the blanket (which was still in his backpack upon picking him up), it was still folded in the precise way I had folded it, untouched by the employees. I am EXTREMELY shocked that the employees of Leashes and Leads cared so little about my puppy's simple feelings and comfort, and WILL ABSOLUTELY NEVER trust them with any aspect of his care in the future. I will absolutely tell everyone I know to avoid this place. Money is all that is cared about here, not your furry children. read more

We felt the staff was less than forth-coming about the added cost of picking up our dog after exactly 12p.m. Marble was with them less than 48 hours, yet we had to pay 3 nights' worth of boarding. Since we had been very clear that we wouldn't arrive until 2p.m. to get her, they should have told us then it would be an extra day's charge. No, they simply confirmed her for two nights. We actually arrived at 12:40p.m. on that last day which was when we found out about the additional charge. They are a caring staff, but we could have used more transparency about their costs. read more

I've gotten my dog groomed at Leashes and Leads for many years. Normally it takes about 1-2 hours for grooming. A couple of weeks ago, we had a 1:00 appt. I called about 3:30 and wondered if the grooming was finished yet and they said it would be another 1 to 1.5 hrs. I couldn't believe it. I got a phone call about 4:45 saying that he was finished and could pick him up. They did comment that it closes at 5:00 on Saturday which I didn't know. So, needless to say, it took me 35 minutes to get there. Everyone was very nice and apoligized for the long wait. I did ask what the problem was and the receptionist said that there are several dogs that have the same appt time. Apparently they book more than one dog at one time. I'd never heard this before. So, I will go back another time and see if this happens again. The grooming was awesome however and everyone was very nice. It just took so long!! read more

We have used leashes and leads for boarding our dog for several years. We have generally been happy with their services. We purchase specialized food there and recently moved vet care to the clinic located in their facility. As a loyal Leashes and leads customer I was disappointed in the recent customer service we received. They have a policy of charging an entire nights boarding if your dog is not picked up by noon on your "check out" day. We have had a stay in the past where we were unable to return until after 5PM and have payed the extra fee. Today we were cought in single lane traffic. We called from the road to say we may be 20 to 30 min late. We were promptly reminded that we would be charged. We then stated we would then consider picking her up in the AM instead, we were told that was not possible because they were completely booked solid. We ended up arriving at the check out desk at 12:14 and were charged the extra fee as promised. When we were handed our dog we were told that she was due to go to the bathroom and hadn't been taken out yet. We arrived home and immediately checked the on line reservation site for an overnight stay for a dog of the same weight etc as ours. According to the web site there was space available. We were very disappointed in the attitude and dishonesty we received with the employees on the telephone. Leashes and Leads clearly has a large number of clients that our patronage will not be missed and our review will most likely not be chosen to post. We will not be returning. We do not want to be treated like someone is doing us a favor. We are paying for a service. read more

When we got our new puppy we wanted to make sure she was well socialized and used to spending days without us in case we both end up with office jobs again (I work from home). She's routinely gotten praise and she comes home the happiest and the most tired. And also stinky, but people who leave a bad review for a stinky dog are ignoring that when a dog plays hard they're rolling in dirt, water, and spit, let alone if you've got one with a penchant for sticking their head in a "stream" (Riza). For us, when we toured the facility was very clean, and they take and post pictures daily of all the pups and even with all the dogs running around all day it's always super clean. The staff are all super friendly and seem to really love their jobs -- or at least really love the dogs so you'd never know. Central Bark is also on the ball with keeping track of vaccinations & will mention if you've got something close to expiring - an added perk for sure since it's easy to miss an email from the vet. For safety reasons, Central Bark asks that you come on as regular a schedule as possible - this keeps their play groups fairly consistent and let's the dogs develop friendships and not be constantly introducing brand new dogs to each other every single day. It also helps with your own routines at home. By doing this, we've found that Riza has made her own friends and has a few doggies that she just LOVES at daycare. It's always fun to see the regulars in the pictures with her. I love them, I think their prices are reasonable and well worth it, and I hope to let Riza come to daycare for as long as we possibly can. Attached are photos from central barks Facebook page of Riza playing in their facility

Leashes & Leads & Meadow View Vet are the absolute BEST:)! Leashes & Leads had an adoption day 2 1/2 years ago where I met my adorable energetic playful dog Brewster (Boxer Mix). He was hoping to meet his new family & forever home & that day his wish came true:)! Leashes & Leads has such welcoming staff & most excellent care takers for Dogs in Playcare & Boarding! Groomers & Trainers are also a 5 ! It is a one stop shop for all of your Dogs needs! They go above & beyond! The staff is so knowledgeable! Brewster & I have gone through 2 rounds of Obedience classes one day a week for 7 weeks each! Tesla & all of the other trainers are amazing! I highly recommend Leashes & Leads for all of your pups needs! And by the way the dog park is Fantastic! Brewster loves LeashesAndLeads dog Park! Plus they have different events for your pup throughout the year, an Easter Egg Hunt (we've attended all 3 Easter Hunts ) & have a Halloween costume contest which we havnt made to yet but hope to in the future!

This isn't just a business, they're family. They have amazing, dedicated workers that are able to help you with any questions you could have and make you feel confident and assured your furry friend is well taken care of! Their dog parks have two separate areas; an agility course and a large area with a man made pond with constant moving water. They have supplies for both cats and dogs for prices I've found better than petsmart or petco. They have training classes of many varieties, an on-site vet clinic, grooming salon, and a boarding/daycare for your furry friend! I bring my dog to the playcare twice a week due to a busy work schedule. They know us by name, always give us the best service, and my dog comes home happy and tired! They even have a drop off set up for the early mornings/late nights! They even have a barky bus that will pick up and drop of your dog! I seriously can't brag enough about this place! 12/10 recommend this place, you'll never be disappointed! read more

Vet said I needed a better dog food and recommended Leashes and Leads. After googling them I was surprised they were so far out of town, but then realized it was only a minute or two out of Rochester. The staff really knew their stuff and had many great suggestion. I was given options and did not feel pressured which i really liked. One of the workers even offered me a tour. To my surprise they got everything, boarding, daycare, grooming, vet. I will probably never use the other stuff, but it was nice to know and I'm retire so what else was I going to do:) The grounds were beautiful and clean and all the dogs looked very well taken care of. So my dog now has food without corn so he doesn't scratch (hopefully) so much and I got to have some fun and meet new people. I will most definitely be coming back and will recommend Leashes and Leads to everyone. read more

We took our dog here for grooming and Ashlie is AMAZING! Doc is a 2year old doodle and this is the FIRST time he came home from the groomer and wasn't depressed and sad. She went above and beyond in every way. He loves her. She treats your dog like her own (she has a doodle too so she gets them) and makes sure he is comfortable and loved during the groom. She is everything we've ever been looking for in a groomer. We'd never go anywhere else now that we've discovered this gem! (Just so you know, no one at L&L asked us to leave this review and our last groom is the first time we ever met her). Ashlie just realllly deserves this review because she's such an awesome person. She is the kind of person who should be grooming dogs because she really loves them and treats them so well! Oh, and he looked adorable :) She is so talented! read more

Our lively lab mix has been attending Leashes and Leads playcare a couple days per week for the past few months. We love how convenient it is - drop off and pick up are so easy and efficient!

We've loved Leashes & Leads the two times we boarded our 2 dogs while on vacation, but have been disappointed with the lack of feedback upon pickup.

It's nice to be able to bring our fur baby to a place that has such caring, friendly staff. Not only do they have a wonderful playcare, they have great trainers to help with all levels of obedience training, and an awesome dog park you can take your dog to. I always recommend Leashes & Leads to anyone looking for a place to bring their dog. read more

Leashes and Leads offers a wide selection of pet products for dogs and cats. As the owner of two performance dogs I am very selective about what goes into and onto my dogs. They stock my dog food, a super selection of treats, an lots of useful supplies. I've had their toenails trimmed there when I was short on time, and we belong to their private dog park, which is my go to place for swimming my Border Collie. An all around wonderful facility. read more

A great place to board the dogs. I just wish that it wasn't all or nothing for charging a full night of stay. Many of us work or are returning on flights, so trying to pick up animals by noon is tough. Yet, if you love your pet and want them A.S.A.P., you might pick them up at 1 p.m. and pay for the next night's stay. They should consider an optional afternoon charge to pick up your animal up between 12-5. read more

L&L is such a wonderful place for daycare or boarding your pups. Everyone there truly love and care for your dog's well being and will go out of there way to give your pup the best experience possible. My dog has been going to Leashes and Leads since she was a puppy (6months), and she LOVES going to playcare twice a week and seeing the staff and all her dog friends. I cannot recommend L&L enough :-) read more

This is the best place for all your fur-kids needs :) The vet is the best and the groomers are great and the store carries all needed items and food for your furry friends... One stop and everything is done :) The doctor and the staff at Meadow View are great! My Sadie loves the groomers and they all take such good care of her. I highly recommend Leashes and Leads for all your fur-kids needs! read more

I always take my kitty here for when I have to leave town. Leashes and Leads is really nice because they have an online scheduling system so I can easily scheduling boarding for my cat online. When I drop her off and pick her up, they are also very friendly and make sure to say a quick hello to my cat which always makes me feel better. Cuddles always comes home happy and healthy! read more

I love taking my dog to the Playcare. She is only a year old and has a lot of energy so on the days I can work it into my schedule I take her. She loves it!! We also took 2 of their puppy classes when we first adopted her. The classes were very helpful. I love the great variety of treats and food they have in the store. It is just a great place with great people. read more

I have taken our dogs here for daycare and boarding for several years. They have excellent, friendly customer service, updated facilities, and just dote on our dogs. It's also a huge plus that they have a fully stocked store and grooming services. I love bringing my dogs to Leashes and Leads because I can be confident that they will come home tired and happy. read more
