My puppy went here for almost 5 months, just about every day. After going to 7 trainers, I brought…read moremy dog here and within 3 days my dog behaved a lot better. I thought the owner must have the magic touch. I WAS VERY WRONG. On August 20th, I was asked to meet another pet parent. I was in the daycare that early morning, with CJ the owner and a few other dogs including my own. CJ retrieved a drop off mixed breed dog from outside and CJ's attitude and personality completely changed before my eyes. This 70 pound mixed breed, was treated horribly (not going to go into nasty details, as CJ's behavior was totally unacceptable). The dog got yelled at outside, inside and when I confronted CJ, I was told not to get involved by CJ since I didn't see what this dog did the day before. Regardless of what a dog did the day before, the dog has no idea why you are treating him so poorly, the following day. CJ told the dog to sit, in a screaming manner. He then left the room. The dog got up and CJ took a mop and swung it over her head as hard as he could against the wall. The mop didn't touch the dog, it was a scare tactic. CJ was so quick to pick up that mop, you can tell this wasn't his first time using this method of getting a dog to listen to him. I immediately took my 9 month old pup out of that daycare and filed a complaint with Lowell Animal Control and MSPCA. I was told by the investigator, 2 other complaints were filed during an 8 day time frame. If CJ treats a dog so poorly in front of customer, imagine what goes on when the pet parent is not around. Close this place down and take your dogs out of there. Reason for delay in review = I was directed to hold off on posting any review until the investigations were closed.

To "North Shore Dog", Thank you so much to the owner and staff that works there. I work with a dog…read morerescue as a foster parent and was in need of boarding for one of my foster dogs. We went with North Shore Dog, because I didn't want our foster to be placed in a kennel all day like other boarding places do, with little to no interaction. The staff here took great care of him as he had so much fun playing and interacting with other dogs and staff members, this I know from what I seen on the live web cames offered. He was able to spend all day with other dogs, learning how to play, interact, and follow a routine schedule offered at this facility. This structure is very good especially for a foster dog who is learning to trust, and become more confident to be adopted. Thank you once again, and you can see how happy you made this sweet guy.

The owner has an attitude, and that is why her staff is rude. I just boarded my dog there for 5…read moredays. She is a boxer breed, and I have found that the staff is vastly uneducated on Bully breeds. They keep trying to change her natural instinct due to there lack of education. It was frustrating to pick her up and here that the stuff was being hard on my dog when the way she plays is natural. I also have a major problem with the way they treat POST PANDEMIC DOGS. Most of the puppies born through COVID have high separation anxiety and the hotel doesn't really care if the owner has needs for the pet I was told to fill out my dogs medication chart before boarding which I did in full, and when I picked up my dog from boarding all of her medication, treats, and toys , had not been used at all. She was returned with the wrong dog bowls, and the owners were rude when asked to return them. I was told to not bring dog bowls for boarding . However I expressed my dog is post pandemic and suffers from anxiety so the idea of eating out of a bowl not her own she doesn't do. So I labeled the bowls and was told on DROPOFF it was fine. However on pick up day - they were lost ( they gave me two random bowls) and proceed to tell me to not bring bowls for the future I am disappointed in this place because I had faith with some of the employees but overall 4 employees have been rude , and when I met the owner today, she was rude to me 5 seconds into convo. If the owner is rude to customers , then so won't her staff be.

Junior was incorrigible terrible on a leash dog aggressive we took him here & met Mike Citro the owner & trainer we were hoping for the best but honestly didn't expect much as we had brought him other places with absolutely no results. 1 on 1 training day care twice a week then classes he was a new dog. He went from tearing our arms off on the leash to being a good citizen dog Mike was like the dog whisperer for us. Now our 2nd is Dritte he went last week for a meet & greet & tonight for our 1st 1 on 1 session & between what he taught us @ meet & greet & tonight's session we've already seen results. Mike knows his stuff he basically trains us & the dog. Dritte loved class & will be @ daycare tomorrow we're gonna do same formula as with Junior except much earlier as Dritte is a little over 5 months old & Junior was 2 1/2 years old due to wasting time & money on useless trainers. I couldn't recommend Mike Citro & Bay State Canine any higher I'd give 10 stars if I could he saved our Junior & I can't wait for Dritte to learn also.

I have brought to her to multiple groomers since her last permanent groomer and i have never had any of them take such a large amount of time to groom her like this on top of it all she was trimmed very unevenly and over all horribly , She also tends to get Tear stains in the eye which usually get removed by the groomer as much as they can and i got her back with her eyes pretty much the same very dark and stained not much done to them, overall a very unpleasant experience and for the price that was paid ($100.00) it was definitely NOT worth it.Won't be retuning or recommending anyone here in the future. ****HAD TO UPDATE MY REVIEW BECAUSE I CAN NOT RESPOND TO THE OWNERS COMMENT below******* ... but there is absolutely no excuse on why a dog should take 6 hours to groomed and i was the one who called you around about 2:15 that afternoon you told me Chanel would have been ready in 45 minutes after our call at 2:15 so it was not that that's when i could make it there it's because that's what was told to me over the phone at that time . I did not get a call back so i made my way there on my own terms being that she had already been there WELL OVER 5 hours it could have been from 8:30-2:00 or 8:30-3:00 does not make any more of a difference from the fact that you took so long with my dog for something i could have done at my home with a pair of house scissors and a shaver and as for the part where you said my dog was dropped off last????.. your location opens at 7:30 am so how is a 8:30 am appointment your last appointment of the day it makes absolutely no sense ? That is something that you should take accountability for as a owner to make sure your groomers aren't over booking their clients my mom was 100% unaware that this would take 5+ hours because if that was the case we wouldn't have called as many times as we did to check up on her & we most likely wouldn't have brought her to you at all & she was also unaware of the fact that you were going to shave her she discusses a trimming with you and another thing My mom came in at 12:00pm to pick up Chanel and you never said anything about it taking an extra 4 HOURS your professionalism is terrible take some accountability because after reading through half of your reviews I'm clearly not the first or the last person this is going to happen to, she has gone to PROFESSIONAL places with more dogs and they have done way better work and taken way less time with her , at the end of the day the price does not matter to me it's the quality and you took hours with my dog to make her look like a shaved rat with no type of effort to even clean her tear stains something that every other groomer i have taken her to to does with no complaints or EXCUSES do better Angela because i don't see your business lasting much longer i will make sure to tell everyone i know about your professionalism it's disgusting clearly your the one who cares only about the money in this situation and on top of it all trying to make your clients look like liars isn't a good look either again take some accountability.
