I made sure to bring copies of his shot records. Cats and other smalls like rabbits, hamsters, etc have their own room which is nice. Those dogs sure can be loud and rambunctious. I was able to visit him each day and take him out of the kennel to let him walk around and play a bit. I brought his own food as to not upset his tummy. They provide litter pan and blanket. Price can't be beat. Staff is friendly and try to keep the animals calm and cared for during their stay.

I live nearby and have become very concerned about the level of care and attention the dogs at this…read moreboarding facility appear to be receiving. The dogs are frequently left barking for long periods of time, both during the day and throughout the night. Dogs being boarded can obviously become anxious or vocal, but hearing them continuously barking for hours at a time makes it seem like they are not being given enough attention, comfort, exercise, or supervision. It is especially concerning when this continues late into the night. As someone who lives nearby, it is difficult to hear dogs repeatedly distressed and barking for such extended periods without anyone seemingly addressing it. A boarding facility should be attentive to the dogs in its care and make an effort to ensure they are comfortable, properly supervised, and not left in a prolonged state of distress. I hope the owners take this seriously and reevaluate how the dogs are being supervised and cared for while staying at their facility.

This organization called me back, gave me a voucher code, and I was able to have it neutered the next day for $20. That price includes regular cat shots, ear clip, and neuter. For all feral cats, you need to bring the cat in a trap, not anything else. They will not accept cats in other enclosed containers at any vet's business. This is to avoid harm to their employees. The Visalia Cat Coalition has volunteers that call you back. The volunteer who called me is named Janice. She was extremely helpful and led me through the process step-by-step. She had me go to the Valley Oak SPCA clinic in Visalia. She even went so far as to meet me t at 5:30 AM. I got there early, as feral cats are taken on a first-come first-serve basis and they only accept a limited number each day. Janice also followed up with me less than a week later to see how the cat had done after the surgery.

Come on people! We had a Lhasa Apso for 11 years and had her groomed about every 2 months from San Francisco to San Luis Obispo and in between....that's a lot of groomers! That dog passed and now we have another puppy that needed grooming. Gracie is 7 months old and has been going to a groomer in town, who has issues.

Let me tell you something.....NEVER in the past 12 years, have I witnessed such a thorough, precise grooming job on our dog....EVER!! Tricia knows how to listen to the needs of her customers and has a keen sense with dogs. Our puppy was living on her and wanting to play. I know there are positive reviews out there, her appointment book is full! Why people are not writing more positive reviews on Yelp, I don't know. Bottom line, you want the BEST groomer for your pet, see Tricia.

Ballerini line, Tan markings, Mini, Male, Blue, Tail intact (not altered). Eye patch(s). Mottled Body, Markings are acceptable. Fast forward about 8 months, Tina reached out about a new litter but unfortunately the timing was not right for us. A few months later, November 16, 2021 Stefani had her litter of 8 males and 1 female. We at last selected our new puppy! With our position in the reservation list, it took just about one year to receive our pup. From here, communication with Tina was once a week for about 8 weeks. Pictures and videos showing the pups growth and how their coat is coming in. The day of pick up, the ranch was neat and well kept. We were greeted by a few of the breeding heelers, they were very loving and wanted all of our attention. Tina brought over our pup and administered his first shot and provided paperwork along with it. She advised our next steps as new parents to an amazing breed. The entire experience working with Tina as our breeder was great and couldn't be happier. It is a process as noted on their website. So please be patient and respect the process. The only recommendation I would like to mention is improvement on the progression photos during the first 8 weeks they are born. Some of the photos of the pups were a little too distant and may have been screenshots taken from a video. Thank you again Tina!

I reached out to Tina because she had standard and mini heelers. After corresponding a bit, she said a standard is probably what we were looking for. While waiting our turn in line, Tina was extremely forthright and transparent and always answered my emails clearly and quickly. Once it was our litter, she sent weekly updates about our puppy with pictures. I agree with another reviewer that our lack of pickiness got us our puppy more quickly. Our biggest concern was size; we wanted a standard on the smaller side (no more than 40 lbs). Our pup is from Shelton and Hawn. At 1 year, he is 36 lbs, perfect for us. I have to admit, I was a little nervous bringing our puppy home at 6 weeks, since so many sites recommend 8 weeks minimum, but our puppy was weaned, healthy, and ready to go. Now, we have a sociable, intelligent, loving dog who fits into our family perfectly. I can't say enough good things about our experience with Lewis Ranch. Thank you Tina!
