When one of the dogs had a health concern, she stayed very aware of his condition and monitored how much he was eating, drinking, etc. I have no doubt that she cares for my pets as if they were her own!

If the employee or pet isn't doing well in this kind of environment, then they simply suggest new places for them to try out. Seems weird that I'd be saying this, right? Not really. You see, I'm a dog walker and have worked at two different companies. The first place I worked at, one if my fellow dog walkers was recommended to us by this place as they felt he'd do much better in a one-on-one situation rather than in a group environment. The place I currently walk for have gotten clients recommended to us from this place, as they felt group environment wasn't in the best interest for the dog(s) and that they're better off having one-on-one time while relaxing in the comfort of their own home! The next time you're looking for a place to walk your dog, be sure to ask Paws in Pinegree for any and all suggestions!

I was late to the pandemic dog/puppy party, I started work with a new shop that didn't require me to do the regular run & gun previous shops had me doing, and I finally felt ready to get a new puppy after two years of grieving on the loss of my last girlie. As soon as my new girlie had all her shots, one of the things I wanted to start doing early is getting socialized with as many different dogs as I could with her. Woodstock Canine was the first I visited and the only one that would take her as young as she was at the time. As time went by, she also visited a few other doggie daycare locations, one I avoided will go nameless, but it was a huge deal on Nextdoor about how they treat their four-legged clients and I promptly scratched them off the list. Another doggie daycare was going along great until I had to bolt out of town for a business emergency and let her stay the night at this 'other' location, I had gotten an alert from their staff that she wasn't walking great and was wondering if I could take her to my vet. The vet discovered that whatever the daycare/boarding facility used to clean the place burned a couple of her pads and I was out $900 in vet bills because their staff was probably more interested in Facebook updates than client health. One other scare sealed it for me never taking her there again. Woodstock Canine Clubhouse is exclusively where she goes for daycare and an emergency boarding if I get stuck with something, or I forgot about a party happening and didn't add it to Google Calendar. My girlie starts bouncing around when I make the right turn onto the road where Woodstock Canine Clubhouse is on and as soon as we're parked, she can't wait to get inside and play with her friends with the staff and all her other four-legged friends on the inside. At the end of the day, and as soon as we're barely out of their lot, she's crying that I'm taking her away from her friends, but that doesn't last long as she's fast asleep on the drive home. After dinner at home, she's fast asleep until around midnight when she asks to do her business (and dinner has digested) where she makes her way to the couch, bed, sometimes the crate and is back into a night of sleep only I can dream about having. Don't take my word on this, give your dog a day off and give Woodstock Canine Clubhouse a try, and see if your results mirror mine, I'm certain you won't be disappointed.

However, today we go and pick up our Lab and she has a cut on her side. When we asked what happened we were told "no idea.

The manager then tells me that maybe the groomer clipped her when shaving her..... she wasn't shaved! She only had a bath! Do not take your dogs here.

My dog was at Charlie's Doghouse in Crystal Lake for 6 days. It was my first time boarding him…read moreever, and I did a lot of research of where I would send him because I was so nervous. Charlie's DH seemed like it had great reviews, he spent a day there and had fun passing his temperament test, and they offered a cage-free option for overnights which I 100% needed for my dog. I almost didn't go through with boarding him, I tried to find several people to stay at my home for the week, but with scheduling it didn't work out, so I went with Charlie's. I only agreed after an employee promised me that he would make sure the other employees knew how nervous I was and that they would communicate pictures and updates throughout the week as they could. I left on a Friday, I didn't hear from them all weekend. The male employee was the only one to send me pictures and some news about him after the weekend since he wasn't working that weekend, but he said he heard it was busy. I finally got a text from the manager late the last night of his stay regarding a "small scratch" she noticed. Upon picking him up, this was NOT a small and I noticed several other spots along his neck that were raised, felt like bites, and that worried me. The employee also told me that my dog got sick one night, but no one told me this during his stay? I took him to the vet this morning because I was so concerned with the bites, they had to shave his neck region, and we were SHOCKED! Please tell me this is "a small scratch".... Terrifying and I'm so sad I sent my dog here, and he went through that. His neck is shaved, he has marks all over, he's on an ointment, and an oral antibiotic. How did this go "unnoticed"? Wasn't there blood? He has short hair, most of it white in that region. I asked, the employee "doesn't know" if there was blood. Each employee I've spoken to has a different day they "noticed" the "small scratch". There had to have been blood and someone had to have seen this! Why wasn't I contacted WHEN THIS HAPPENED and WHY WASN'T HE TAKEN TO THE VET THEN? Someone is lying or this place was understaffed and unsupervised. As a rescue dog, he already has a very traumatic past, so I am exceptionally sad this happened to him and wouldn't want this happening to another dog. What if my dog was a smaller, weaker breed? Another dog could have been killed, luckily my dog wasn't! Update- I did speak to the owner on the phone this morning after the vet. She was crying and disgusted with what happen- she said she's going to try to look through video footage, but it erases every few days, but she's trying to figure out who is to blame. She said she felt very bad and was very apologetic because she said this is her dream job, and she just wants the dogs to be safe. She seemed sincerely very sorry, so while this was very bad, and I wouldn't want to send my dog back, it also sounds like it's not normal for this place. Idk... She's paying for the vet bill and the 6 day stay not that it will help my dog, but I am thankful he will be okay. I will update this in a week if the vet bill reimbursement check is sent, she has already reimbursed my dog's stay as promised. I wouldn't wish this on any dog.
