    We called this place THREE times to enroll our puppy in classes. The first time, a man answered and…read moresaid he wasn't in the office and that he'd call me back in 10 minutes...he never called back. The second time, a woman answered and told me she'd call me later that day...she never called. The third time we spoke to a new woman (on speakerphone) who told us the day, date & time of the class and she confirmed our enrollment. We showed up (15 minutes early per their request) and there was one older employee doing agility with her senior dog, she largely ignored us. Then another woman, also an employee, came in asking us what we were doing there. We said we were there for puppy class and wondered where the instructor (and other people/puppies) were. She said that the instructor's Poodle was having surgery that week so there's no way she would have been starting a new class that day. Ridiculous since both my husband and I clearly heard the date & time AND immediately we both set reminders on our phone. We really wanted to take our puppy here since they have a pretty nice looking agility course and their classes included an intro to it, but they're so disorganized. It is clear that the owner(s) and instructors don't communicate too often or too well. I have five friends who recently got puppies and asked me if this place was good and I told them to steer clear from it.

    Have had 4 family dogs take classes with All Dawgs. My own, two of my mom's, and my cousin. We've…read morebeen happy with the experience with the classes in each instance. One of the dogs did continue on with other classes, into the agility one. I will say I know there has been some issues with contact in the past that I've heard of, but we've always been gotten back with. I do recommend and would return here.

    I really truly feel compelled to place my very positive experience and observations with both…read moreJanuary and Jason at The Dog Barn. I brought my 9 year old rescue pup to their facilities as I liked that not only do they offer grooming, but boarding, camp AND training. I was in search of all of the above and felt despite some negative feedback here on Yelp that any business that had all these services available must at their core be passionate about the subject at hand. Again, based on my personal experience......I was over impressed. First, the facilities are spotless. No aroma of uncared for animals, no dust or tufts of hair rolling across the floor. Bright and loving animal artwork adorn the walls. All the pups I met appeared well cared for, ears up, alert and happy. When conversing with Jason, the companies trainer, I learned so much! Jason was trained in the Army with dogs and has years of personal and professional experience. It was so clear to me that he is devoted and passionate towards the animals, his chosen trade, business family and community. Ultimately, after an extremely generous free (and required.....which I LOVE) assessment/evaluation both January and Jason determined the traits and factors that made my pup an in appropriate candidate to become a trained emotional support animal. I am so grateful foe their honesty, as I was so anxious to pay the very fair....but costly investment to undergo this process with my pup. It would have been a potentially fruitless and sad experience for both my dog, self and pocketbook. I feel both January and Jason are in this industry with their whole hearts personally and professionally with nothing but sincere intentions. I look forward to socializing and grooming my dog with them in the future. It is without ANY reservations that I would recommend this very capable business. Karen P.

    We have been coming to Dog Days of Buffalo for various reasons for a while now. They have an…read moreamazing facility! It's clean and fresh smelling with the best doggie day carers around. When you enter, there are two big screen TVs so you can see your pet on one of them. Our Maisie had a blast going to "school" for half-days when it was winter and she needed to run around more than in our house. When we would pick her up, they'd announce, "I need Teeny Maisie from Small Dogs" and we could see all the small dogs run for the exit with JUST Maisie being brought to us! The dogs are SO SO happy. And a GOOD dog is a TIRED dog. We had Janelle for a couple of training classes, and she knows her stuff. We got excellent training and tips from Janelle - she was authoritarian and organized, and gave individual attention as needed. Highly recommend! Lastly, yes, there's more, we have had wonderful grooming done at DDB. Always a great job on grooming, very happy. This is a great business and we will continue to support them.

    I am extremely disappointed and upset with my experience at this grooming facility. After what…read morehappened to my dog, I will never bring her back, and I strongly encourage other pet owners to thoroughly check their pets after every grooming appointment. My dog was groomed by Carly on Saturday, 9/19/26. During the grooming, the hair between my dog's toes was cut, and her skin was clipped in at least two areas. The attached picture clearly shows the injuries and blood. What is even more upsetting than the accident itself is how the situation was handled afterward. Accidents can happen, and I am a very understanding person. What I expect, however, is honesty, accountability, and communication. I was not informed that my dog's skin had been cut. Had Carly or the staff told me immediately, I could have started treating the affected areas much sooner. Instead, I had to email the clinic on Sunday 9/20/26 evening to request an appointment with the veterinarian because I was concerned about the injuries. I was advised to apply ointment until she could be seen. Unfortunately, the earliest appointment I could get with the actual veterinarian was 10/5/26. My dog was able to go in and see a technician on 9/21/26 for other services, but I still had to wait to have the veterinarian properly evaluate the injuries. I also contacted Chelsie, the store manager, about what happened. Rather than receiving an apology and accountability, I felt that she was defensive and more focused on defending her staff. I was also told that my dog's allergies were to blame. Regardless of whether my dog has allergies, that does not explain away the fact that her skin was visibly clipped and bleeding. If my dog's skin was accidentally cut during grooming, I should have been informed immediately. Unfortunately, this was not my first frustrating experience with this location. We had just moved to Buffalo from Derby and brought our dog there for her first appointment on 8/1/26. At that appointment, I asked to schedule her next grooming six weeks later. Leo, the staff member I dealt with on 8/1, told me that he scheduled her for 9/12/26. When we expected to bring her in, my dog was not on the schedule. I was then given the impression that someone else had forgotten to put her appointment on the calendar, even though Leo was the person who had scheduled it with me. As a result, we had to wait another week and didn't get her back on the schedule until 9/19/26. After everything that has happened, the lack of accountability and communication has completely destroyed my trust in this business. The grooming accident itself could have been an unfortunate mistake. The way it was handled is what I find unacceptable. If Carly accidentally clipped my dog's skin, I should have been told the same day. Instead, I discovered the injury afterward and had to take the initiative to contact the clinic myself. I will never take my dog back to this location. I strongly recommend that every pet owner carefully inspect their dog's entire body--including between the toes--after leaving any grooming facility. Do not assume that you will be informed if something goes wrong. My dog's safety and well-being come first, and based on my experience, I no longer have confidence in this facility.

    HORRIBLE, HORRIBLE place to bring your fur baby!! They lie, they tell you that your dogs get five…read morewalks a day while boarding, but fail to tell you they actually DO NOT! Think about it. If they have fifty dogs there like I was told they did, it would take more than five hours to walk all those dogs. I watched on the cameras as one of the staff put what looked like a lasso around my puppies neck as he hid in the corner apparently afraid of her, and she dragged him across the suite to the door where along with my other puppy not so scared, went for a supposed walk which lasted literally TWO/THREE minutes! Yes MINUTES!! I was shocked, I called three times to just get the voice mail after I witnessed this. Then I left a message for return call extremely upset. I did speak to the employee that apologized for her actions, and gave an excuse that was a lie, because I know my puppies. How do dogs pee and poop if it takes longer than three minutes to walk to the back of the building to the outside? Then they want to charge you EXTRA, for accidents in their suite. Well no wonder they're having bowel movements and peeing all over, they're NOT getting enough time , if ANY at all to do their duty. I then spoke with the owner who had the nerve to tell me that maybe I got the time wrong that maybe it was actually longer, and totally disregarded the lasso, and dragging my puppy when I said " YOUR employee admitted it to me and identified herself, and also tried to justify why she did that. Another employee also witnessed it , and said it was NOT okay, that you do not pull a puppy/dog if they refuse. You attempt to show them it's okay, and help them feel comfortable with you it was also very nice outside, and that she offered to take all four of my puppies outside, but was told only two could go with her. Emily (the owner) said she would speak to Hannah (the staff member that told me her name and apologized for her actions) then get back to me. Well, that didn't happen! NOT surprised! I then asked Emily to review her cameras, I gave her the time frame when when it happened within minutes on the hour, when Emily said " iIt's LIVE footage, I can't review the past! " WHAT?" I thought? What if she had to go to court and show proof on the cameras that we pay extra for, she can't produce evidence... ?? BULLSHIT!! Emily also likes to try and charge for the accidents the puppies/dogs have in their suite/pen, which is a result of them not getting walked long enough, or AT ALL.. and make it like it's the dog that's the problem, not her POORLY run business. The communication is also extremely poor. You tell one employee something, and the next minute another employee is doing the complete opposite. I never said to separate my dogs during feedings yet they take my smallest girl dog and put her away( I don't know where) from my other dogs to feed her. Now my smallest dog is NOT afraid of my three other small dogs, if anything they're afraid of her! She's a tough little 5lb Yorkie! I questioned why she was gone for over an hour when they said she was eating separately from the others. I asked why? I was told it was as per my request. NOT!! I never told them that. They still after I said " no longer" separated her and fed her elsewhere. Also they took a water bowl out of the suite at approx 5:40 pm and never gave my four small dogs water until 8:05pm. That was after they ate dry food for dinner and supposedly went for a 15 minute walk that I can't prove. Now everyone knows that dogs go right for their water dish after a walk and also while eating dry food, yet NO WATER! I made three phone calls, and just got the voice mail. Then I called my daughter and told her I was calling the police, that my dogs don't have ANY water, and it's been two and a half hours. I also called the Angola number unaware it was another boarding place that Emily ran. Emily called me from that place earlier in the morning when I had concerns that needed addressing ASAP thinking it was her cell, that I could hopefully get ahold of her to get her staff to give my puppies some WATER! I then noticed on the camera that a lady was bringing in water, at 8:05 pm! They were all trying to get their little heads in that bowl as if they hadn't had water all day. We had to ask for a second bowl as there are four small dogs in there. Too many things went wrong without ANY accountability! The owner "EMILY " had excuses for EVERYTHING! I now understand why! why this place has OY 2 1/2 stars...
