Over all, I won’t be bringing my dogs back here again. First meeting; she spoke over me after asking me a questions, said you way of training “didn’t make sense” (I touch the persons hand or leash with it in their hand to show my dogs they are ok. Just makes it easier and calms them down instantly which I showed her as she move them from the truck to pen. 2 way communication with the pups). Ok… she has been doing this a lot longer and said what works for her works but what has worked for us, works. We talked about the youngest of 3 and I explained we just adopted him 1 1/2 months ago so his training isn’t as good as our 4 and 6 yrs old. I asked/ reminded I would like pictures everyday and we talked about feeding schedules. All pretty normal except her dismissive attitude in what came off as condescending. “Arrogance can come with experience at times, let it go” is what I told myself and moved on. She put them in the small pen with a bush or Crepe Myrtle in the middle with a 1 1/2 ft of walking space at its diameter. She said that was just temporary and she rotates all the dogs in there for short amounts of time. We bullet pointed their needs, pictures, communication and said our good- byes. While on our drive, I asked multiple times for pictures and it was “I’m too busy, I don’t take my phone out with the dogs”. I asked again and received a picture 22 hrs later. They looked unhappy but we just dropped them off a day ago. I asked again to be sent pictures every day and didn’t receive anymore. We were communicative about our flight and traffic/ delayed arrival. After telling her we’d be there at 730pm 3 separate times she explained the dogs shouldn’t be outside for 20 more minutes but she moved them to the shade. My husband took care of the talking when we got there and my dogs were choking themselves to get to us. I grabbed and loaded them and grab their things and left. They were filthy, wreaking of excrement, discolored large eye boogers with inflamed red eyes and bad/exhausted attitudes. To Linda, I was very dissatisfied with your professionalism and understanding. You said you would be able to stay in communication and you were a constant stressor. My dogs reeked of excrement, dirt and their all over behavior was down trodden. My youngest is back to square one and my oldest is acting like she just came out of the environment we rescued her out of which was the streets, neglect and physically harmful to her. Chewbacca wouldn't even engage in fetch last night because he was exhausted, touched out and upset which is not him EVER. He's a labor doodle and his resilience is unrivaled. When I first got there you spoke over me after asking me a question, acted condescending and was unwilling to see things from your customers side. You were dismissive and agitated for some reason. Yet for another reason you showed my husband more respect and politeness that was like whiplash in comparison to how you treated me. Your arrogance, unprofessionalism and over all lack of compassion towards people and my dogs will be your downfall. You do not deserve a tip barely even the car payment it cost to host my 3 at that hell haven you call your home. Thank you for not killing them or letting them run away. You get the bare minimum reward for your bare minimum care.

Wonderful experience with Lindas! I needed to leave town unexpectedly and with very short notice Linda agreed to board my Brownie. Very patient with both me and my dog, lol! Extended stay with no problem and very good with my dog. I will gladly use again with confidence and know my dog is well taken care of! Thank you!
