I have gone to this business a few times and looked past the unfriendliness of the owner as well as…read morelooked past a few bad reviews I have read. But the last time I went in to get a simple thing done - my dog's nails cut, I was astonished at the actions of the owner. My dog is fearful of getting her nails cut, and often cries out during, but never has she tried to bite a person and or defecated while it was being done. The groomer (not the owner) was cutting my dog's nails when my dog started to cry out. When the owner came up to them she began yelling "stop it" at my dog, that was when I heard my dog starting to growl - unfortunately I did not see what the owner did also to cause my dog to defecate. She then took my dog off the table and embarrassed me by shoving her out the gate and claiming she could not cut her nails for fear of giving my dog a heart attack. No apologies, no advice on maybe what I could do next time to calm my dog down beforehand, no suggestions whatsoever. I basically felt kicked out of the store because she didn't know how to do her job. I did not appreciate it. I have never written a bad review before, but this was too much. The problem I had with this was one: she was telling the other groomer to get another muzzle and apparently having two small dog muzzles available for use at one time was too much for this business to think about in advance. When talking to the other groomer, in front of many customers, she was yelling at her to do things. "Barking" orders, if you will. Not only does she manage to be unprofessional to customers, but to her employees as well. Two and mostly: For as long as this woman has had her business around in Lemont, I would think she would have had the experience to know how to keep a dog calm while cutting nails or just basically know how to handle an animal. Does she do this with every animal that doesn't behave perfectly? What does she do to the animals when the owner isn't around? It seems this woman may be in the wrong business that a fearful dog crying out would send her into such stress. I would think she would act like she wants to keep her business and not scare away customers with her yelling, her unprofessionalism, and her basic lack of ability. I really do hope this is an isolated incident. I would hate to know that others' animals and the owners themselves are being treated this way. But after my dog and myself being treated this way at this establishment, I would highly advise going to another groomers.

I have 2 beautiful himi (seal point, blue lynx pt) babies that are by far and away the best…read moredispositions of cats I've ever seen. Pretty sure it was due to superior breeding skills of Ruta. Mama wouldn't feed but Ruta bottle fed both and was their world until we adopted them. She has a beautiful environment for her very special babies . You will not find the blue eyes these boys had just anywhere. They both were sired from special himi's she bought and brought from a breeder in Spain. If you want to show, she will have babies that will take your breath away. My family was replacing a Persian and seal pt himmie that had passed of old age. I adored those as well, but the 2 from Ruta, just more than you could hope for if you just want them as a family member. The amount we paid, very reasonable for the love and beauty of these kitties! Again, Ruta is amazing and treats all her kittens like her human babies. We talked for hours and she even helped us to learn how to bathe them and was a trip back to her gorgeous home. Knowledge of this breed, fortitude to make sure kittens come into this world pampered and loved, Ruta is just an amazing person as well as breeder. You CAN'T find the love she puts into her babies just anywhere! Thank you Ruta, our boys are still the beautiful babies you brought and nurtured into this world! Oh, and No problems what so ever with their health!

But, according to the mgr. named Kim she stated to me, "Please understand that we are currently in the process of moving out of our facility and are significantly understaffed. As a volunteer-run organization, we are doing our best". Which to me isn't good enough, and at what cost? Bringing in dogs from Kentucky and then selling them for $600.00-$700.00 dollars isn't helping dogs find a nice home. Stop bringing in trucks of animals in until you clean up for rescue. They have had several complaints, just look them up. Even their fosters aren't being taken care of or RESPECTED! Until they can clean up their act, there are other great animal rescues out there.

The vet I was using in LaGrange the past couple years was nice, but the office was old and shabby and their staff were very disorganized and unbearably slow. Mill Creek is bright, modern, clean and well run. The front desk folks are efficient and friendly. The vet techs are great too and treat pets with care. They ARE allowing people to come inside with their pet and hang out in the waiting room or in an exam room during exams. Though a popular practice, it has never been crowded any of the times I've gone. Wally had a (long overdue) dental cleaning recently and the final bill came in within the estimate, even though they had to extract a couple teeth. Dr. Conrad seems more up to speed on Wally's condition than my previous vet in LaGrange did.
