I trusted their…read morewebsite, positive reviews and the owner/ trainer Chris Railsback to take good care of my dog. Chris left him in a hot van overnight and into the day, taking Ned back to his house rather than the facility, my sweet dog died a terrible death from overheating. Chris has tried to silence, erase & block my boyfriend and I from spreading the word. But had I know the truth about this place, past & present, I NEVER would've sent Ned. I can't bring him back but I can try my hardest to inform & help other dog owners.

I have taken my dog here several times now for daycare and couldn't be happier about it. I have a…read morerescue dog with a bad past who at 4 years old is still learning to trust different people. I was very nervous at first leaving my dog with new people because I was not sure how she would react, I expressed all my concerns to Josh before bringing her in and he gave me a tour of the facility and explained how he would go about handling and taking time getting to know my dog. The first time I dropped her off she tried to follow me right out the door and she was very uneasy, but now when I drop her off she doesn't even look back. It makes me feel good to drop her off there knowing she loves going and that she likes Josh so much. She doesn't like many people, especially men, so he must be doing something right.

I love that my pup comes home and he is tired. Makes me feel good that he got exercise instead of laying around in my house all day. The staff are great and if need be I can sign up to get his nails trimmed while he is there. I also have many photos of my pup during the day. I like that there is a screening process for the dogs to stay and that they are good about checking immunization records. Another bonus is that if I have to board my dog I can do it there and he can play with his usual playmates during the day.
