I am absolutely shocked that this place has not been shut down by NJ- Animal Contol. I boarded by…read more6 year old Jack Russell here for 5 days. When she arrived she was lively, sweet, cuddly and eager. When I picked her up she had lost 4 lbs, had bald spots from either self-harm or rubbing against a crate that was too small. The owner then handed me a black trash bag that contained the remnants of my sweet dog's bed- it was shredded to pieces (either my dog was so upset that she tattered her own bed for the first and only time ever or another dog was so close and aggressive that she had to witness it). The trash bag also weighed close to 15lbs due to the amount of urine that was soaked in it. It took my Russell nearly 2 weeks to settle back into a peaceful way of life. Clearly she had not been given the opportunity to relieve herself in an appropriate setting, let alone walk for any distance. If I had the ability to drive back and board up the doors to this animal hell-hole myself I absolutely would. NEVER EVER TRUST THESE PEOPLE WITH YOUR BELOVED PETS.

He smelled of urine and the moment I got him outside he peed for 3 minutes and poo'd 4-5 times as though he had been holding it the whole time. My cousins dog was in a similar shape and had destroyed and urinated on her own bed. You aren't able to see where they put the dogs and i don't believe they have access to an outside run. I won't be using this kennel in the future.

After a delay, I was told my dog had just had diarrhea and was being cleaned. When he was finally brought out, he was in unacceptable condition! His back end still had poo, and his white fur was stained yellow, as well as blue stain on his paws. When I asked about it, I was first told it had "just happened," but then later told it occurred earlier that morning in his kennel, which was inconsistent and concerning. I immediately requested the 20% tip be refunded. I was only given three wipes to clean him after I specifically asked, which was completely inadequate for the condition he was in. I declined their offer to bathe him because I no longer felt comfortable leaving him in their care. Although I was eventually refunded for his full stay, the condition my dog was returned in and the conflicting explanations I was given were unacceptable. Even worse, it has now been three days since I picked him up and he is still experiencing diarrhea, to the point where I may need to take him to the ER. I will not be returning and cannot recommend this facility.

Even when they're naughty and get into the trash or have a little accident, everything is in order when I get home and my dogs are happy and loved. **Need to add an update because of one visit in particular. It has taken me a while to be able to write this. Over the Summer, I had the amazing folks from Paws First watching my dogs while I was away for the weekend out of state. My senior dog's health had been in decline for a while, but it didn't seem to be cause for too much concern- just typical old dog stuff. One night, her health took a very sudden and dramatic turn. It was clear that if she were brought in to the the vet that she would not be returning. I didn't want my old girl's last moments to be spent someplace unfamiliar. The staff at Paws First went above and beyond to provide extra care and comfort to her when she needed it most so I could race home to be with her. I am forever grateful for all they did for her.

My only gripe is I wish her hair was cut a bit shorter and next time I will emphasize that. Thanks ! We'll be back.
