AVOID THIS BREEDER! I've owned dogs all of my life with no issues. I purchased a French Bulldog…read morepuppy from Maine Street Bullies. Just before I was supposed to pick him up I was told he tested positive for Guardia. When I asked how difficult it was to treat, I was assured it was no big deal, a week of antibiotics. With this in mind, I picked him up. Big Mistake. Three months later he had not gained any weight as he was eating his feces and reinfecting himself. When I took him to my veterinarian I was told breaking the behavior of dogs eating their own poop was very difficult to do. The breeder was helpful at first then began blaming me. Her solution was for me to put a muzzle on my pup and keeping him on leash at all times to break this habit. I agreed to a week of antibiotics not months of behavior modification, which I told the breeder. Given, he had not gained any weight I was worried for his health. So, the breeder said I should bring him back and they'd train him. After three more months of checking up on him I was told he was ready to be picked up. However, they wanted me to pay them over $1000 to cover the expenses they incurred. They wanted me to pay the costs of making an unhealthy dog they sold me healthy again. When I finally agreed I was told I could not get him back as their daughter fell in love with him. Not only were they not willing to give me my dog back but were not willing to refund my money. I had to take them to Maine Small Claims court to get my money back. Do yourself a favor and find a reputable breeder, Maine Street Bullies is not one!

I currently have fiveBulldogs from this breeder, three Old English and two French. I got my first…read moretwo old English, almost 8 years ago, followed by 2 more adult Old English girls. Unfortunately, we lost one of those girls to brain cancer, she was an amazing girl, I miss her everyday. Six months after losing my sweet girl, we had the opportunity to get our first Frenchie. The personality of this girl is off the charts, she's sassy and unbearably cute. Last Summer we added a beautiful little boy Frenchie to our pack. We could not be happier with all of our dogs and the amazing support we have received from Maine Street Bullies. This breeder is extremely knowledgeable and truly cares about all of her dogs, even after they go to their new homes. The adult dogs we have added to our family came well trained, healthy and highly socialized. The puppies have been healthy, socialized and are beautiful. They love and are loved by everyone they meet. I obviously, have no hesitation recommending Maine Street Bullies to anyone that is equipped to care for the bully breeds. Do your homework and ask questions. Bullies are not for everyone, but for our family they are perfect!

Great service, happy dogs, amazing price!…read more We dropped our dog off while we went camping for the weekend with friends. Our dog is usually more interested in human companionship than canine companionship, so I told the ladies who checked her in that we weren't sure how she would prefer to sleep (in the open or on her own). When I picked her up, I learned that one of the women working there let our dog snuggle with her all weekend - on the sofa watching tv and even overnight to sleep. When she was checked out, she was calm, happy, and relaxed. I couldn't ask for anything more! These people love dogs and just want them to be happy and comfortable, no matter what their personality. It seemed like our dog enjoyed her weekend in the country as much as we did!

I do not recommend. Dogs are kept in crates all day let out to potty 4 maybe 5 times a day and…read moreexpected not to play. When they do bring your dogs out (if you pay extra) they get 5 to 10 minutes to play and then rushed back into their crates. You have to pay for basic needs for a dog, rushed walks, playtime that isn't long enough, if your dog gets meds, cuddles and "play pals" which is a very quick thing only to get a video or picture just to post on their Instagram story. If you dont sign your dog up for anything HUGE chances the dog DOES NOT leave the crate besides for going potty and being rushed at that. Staff arent allowed to use force or discipline if the dogs arent listening yet they do. If your dog pukes or has diarrhea more than once they are given Purina FortiFlora, gastro or pumpkin, if they continue the dog does not eat. All staff claimed to be dog lovers but RUSHING and not making sure dogs arent stuck in crates. News flash excitement and built up energy can EASILY turn into aggression!! Very toxic environment, toxic people and overall bad vibes there. Do not recommend to anyone near this overly expensive dog boarding facility, they do not care about your dogs as much as they say they do. Do not bring your dogs here!!

I called Pet Medic because they were the closest emergency service to us and had excellent reviews. I called at 5:30 even though they close at 7 on Sundays just in case they could at least give us a painkiller till we could get into a vet on Monday. Jody said they couldn't see us till the next day but asked the vet if there was anything they could do for us in the meantime. Then she told us that they would squeeze us in if we could be there by 7. And they did. Not only did they see us, but 3 of the staff stayed until we were done at 9:30 - on a Sunday. Amazing place - just what we hope for in an emergency.

When we called for an emergency they failed to respond promptly and when they responded the next day they would not see our cat. Our elderly cat is on a long term drug to resolve a chronic condition that was prescribed by Dr Norman before CareVet took over and now they will not extend the prescription. They have eliminated the separation of dogs and cats in the waiting room (which was brilliant). Their staff is no longer the friendly, happy staff that we saw in the past and the vet that gave the last exam did not have any knowledge of the cat's history or did she seem to care. We cannot wait to change vets.

This was our first visit to this practice. Our appointment was scheduled for 11:30 a.m. We waited…read more90 minutes before we even saw the veterinarian. They then made us wait another hour before we received the medication and could check out. This appointment took 2.5 hours total for a simple exam. The overwhelming majority of this time was spent waiting in the waiting room or exam room. There did not appear to be a single other patient in the practice while we were there, so I'm perplexed as to why we had to wait this long. When I got home, I reviewed the receipt because I felt the total was higher than the estimate, and I realized they charged us twice for one of the medications. The staff and veterinarian seemed generally friendly/competent, but the wait time, coupled with the billing mistake, is a deal breaker for me. I will not return to this practice.

First and foremost, this is where I bring my little Milli for her grooming - she had her first one this week! Michelle groomed my little Zoey's hair for over 15 years and when Michelle left another location and moved here - you can bet I didn't hesitate to follow her. She is truly amazing - patient, kind, and so VERY GOOD at what she does. This place also has a wide array of pet food, treats, and other various supplies. I have found that the staff is very knowledgeable and helpful when I'm looking for products. And, they also remember and recognize you and your pet(s) - even the ones that aren't yours that you show up with on occasion! Lastly, they are just dog people here! They have openly told me that it's totally okay to bring my pup here on those cold days when it's not safe outside - and to just walk her around the store for exercise - no purchase necessary. It's things like that that keep you coming back.
