I was not asked any information about my dog aside from his name and if he took medication. There was no place to fill in feeding information, and I had to inform the girl working that I had brought food for him and when and how much he eats. I was not allowed to see the facilities where he would be staying, was not informed if he would have time with other dogs. I shouldn't have left him in the first place, but I did. When I picked him up was given no information about how his stay was, if he'd had any problems, etc. He smelled like he'd had an accident in his kennel and been wiped down (?) and seemed very agitated. I had brought toys and an old sweater of my husbands for comfort in his kennel while we were away, when I picked him up they were still in the bag with no indication that they had been given to him. I imagine he spent the entire time in boarding alone, as well, but I wouldn't know since no one working offered me any information. Overall it was a pretty typical boarding experience from what I've seen with my other dogs in the past, but the thing that it lacked was any customer service, personal care or consideration for the dog or dog owner. At least PRETEND to care about me and my dog when I drop him off. Will not be returning.

So I have been meaning to do this review for awhile but I have mixed feelings as the staff here was…read morevery friendly. After using BEVS for my dog's first initial hospital vet care visit when living in Vermont, I chose to try Tannenberger as it was closer to me than BEVS. I was hopeful because they seemed eager to help me and see my dog Bonnie to give her the care she needed. If I could give five stars for friendliness amd hospitality, I would. Where they fell short was the fact that after doing the initial intake and consult for my dog, I was told that they mised up her blood sample and that I would have to come in again. This was cumbersome for me as I don't own a vehicle and had to utilize a local taxi service to get to and from this location. My dog had not been eating, was running a fever, and was lethargic. Again, they were very kind and welcoming, but to me mixing up a blood sample in a pathology lab in a hospital would warrant a visit from the hospital's joint commission or committee that oversees health regulations and compliance/quality control. A pet's health should be taken just as seriously as a human's because it is a living thing and veterinary care is costly. I already had to pay $4000+ out of pocket for emergency care at BEVS in Burlington, so to have pay another $1,000 (as that is what it costed at Tanneberger) is just downright deplorable. Now I don't wish to sound like a Karen but mixing up blood samples and paying $1000 just to have my dog's vitals evaluated is obscene. I had been tracking my dog's I&O's (input/intake and output) on my own and her temperature and gave her a pet friendly NSAID/fever reducer that BEVS prescribed, but I was hoping for a bit more comprehensive care than what I was offered. BEVS suspected that she had a parasitic infection so they also prescribed itraconazole but when they test for that came back negative I was back to square one, hence why I reached out to Tannenberger. Perhaps she just had a stomach bug/flu or maybe food poisoning, but I owe an extra $1000 on top of the $4000 I owe to BEVS. I think $1000 for vitals to be assessed is a bit much:/ The vet did ask me what I can pay or how much I can afford which I said I am hoping to stay under $1,000 and what do you know, I was charged exactly around $1,000. The sad part is the vet seemed really nice as did the girls at the front desk, but to me it is inexcusable and felt like they were price gouging me and taking advantage of a new patient. I also was not local to Vermont (originally from Miami, FL and have moved around quite a bit) and Saint Albans is a small town where everyone knows everybody I think, but I even told them that I was not working presently, and I was still charged around $1,000 and also given wrong information about her bloodwork (that her calcium levels were high). She did bring my awareness to some lumps on her chest that they aspirated and took a sample of, but I also assessed that they were probably fatty deposits/lipomas. When I brought Bonnie home I did a very thorough massage on her (lymphatic drainage as I was certified infant massage) and made sure to target those areas, and luckily the large lumps went away. I wish to give three stars for friendliness and amicability but I just think the mixup with the bloodwork was something that could have been avoided. If you are a pet parent reading this, just make sure you do your due diligence in finding the right care for your pet. They truky are man's best friend and I am grateful that Bonnie is alove to this day because I was sincerely afraid that her health was deteriorating and that I was going to have to make some very hard and drastic decisions on whether or not to put her down as she wasn't eating, was frequently urinating and defecating everywhere. She had a persistent cough reminiscent of a hacking sound and was very weak and lethargic, which are all signs of poor health. Thankfully, she is eating happily, playful, energetic, and lively. I was going to give the place two stars but changed it to three since they at least allowed her to be seen and squeezed me in for an appointment and greeted me in a friendly manner. They also did refund me for the bloodowork mix up ($250 refund back) but still I think $1000 is a bit much for a vet visit, though as close relatives have told me, vet hospital bills are known for being quite hefty and costly. So make sure you do your homework and research the clinic before going to it.

I would probably avoid Tanneberger's. Nothing against the vets, but they are employees of the…read morepractice which is owned by a larger entity. I have been with this clinic for 15 years and called recently to get a prescription refilled to Costco. They told me they were no longer doing this and now require you to go to the office in person for a paper prescription. I called this morning to see when I could pick up the paper prescription but they told me their printer was out of order and they were "working on it". The receptionist told me they were not going to call the prescription in as it was a new policy, so I told her I would not be returning. Then she told me I was "not the kind of person they want in their practice". I told her there was really no need to talk to me like that; after all, after 15 years and 3 cats and 2 dogs going every 6-12 months at $1,000 a whack, I've spent countless thousands of dollars there. Not a way to treat a good, paying, established patient. This practice has ALWAYS had the reputation for being too expensive, and I won't repeat a lot of what people say about it but there are plenty of negative reviews about it online. This is the first time I actually really felt it was a money grab, with the practice preferring you to buy the medication from them and making it so inconvenient to get a refill. I have jumped through hoops to get all the pets there on time for their physicals so that they could always get their prescriptions refilled and have even gone to BEVS at Tanneberger's request when the pets needed something. Now apparently I am not welcome because I don't like their policies? I am not sure if this is what the industry is doing, but it's bad service and makes me not want to have any more pets.

I unfortunately never looked at the reviews before I left my dog, but I had a similar issue with…read moremuscle loss after leaving my dog with the kennel for 7 days. She is a 2yr old Cirneco, which are slim active/muscular dogs that need to exercise regularly. I was happy to see on the website "Time outside of these hours is spent caring for our boarders." Hours of operation are 6:30am to 5:30pm This is actually not the case because no one is there after their noted work hours. All staff leave which is why you are not able to pick up after 5:30pm. Which means the dogs are left alone for 13hrs in the evening. I was running 30min late from my flight in Montreal. Similar to the woman in 2023, they refused to wait noting that they had been there all day. I was meant to drive to New York that evening and had to take on unnecessary costs due to their inflexibility. The intake was disorganized - they have important policies that you should be aware of prior to drop off. After this terrible experience I then found out later that they underfed my dog 1/2 the amount she was meant to be fed (again intake issues). I wrote to the owners to explain how I and my dog were treated and have not received a response. It sounds like their specialty is cleaning and fencing, but perhaps not long term boarding care

My senior dog stayed for 10 days at this place. She was walking just fine when I dropped her off. Just like all big senior dogs, yes, she has arthritis but, again, she was walking. I called to check on her everyday to make sure she's doing good and eating well. On Day 10, my travel day, I received a very disturbing voicemail saying she couldn't stand up and walk on her own. My flight won't be arriving til 7. I begged Marc, the owner, to let me pick her up after hours but no, he had to go to his daughter baseball game. I picked her up first thing the next day. Yes, she's totally immobile. Took her to the vet and they said she lost all her back muscles. What are these people doing in 10 days?!?!? Just let her sleep on her kennel?!?!? What kind of place is this that doesn't make sure that she gets her exercise. This was in September 2022 and she went to rainbow bridge in March 2023.
