First of all, the paperwork is 8 pages per dog...I don't even fill out vet paperwork that long. Secondly, they have a 3 step long process "to be accepted" to board with them, so if you work full time- good luck. During this meet & greet, I was spoken to (or lectured) like a 12 year old by the owner, Tim, regarding my dog's separation anxiety while separated from the my other dog in the car. I was also swiftly lectured about both the vet's and my decision to wait a little longer to neuter our 8mo old puppy. Overall did not appreciate the interrogation style this owner took with me. I doubt he would have taken this aggressive and lecturing tone with my husband, but we'll never know because he was so rude and dismissive of me. Though I do not doubt his plethora of knowledge about dogs, but what he has in knowledge he lacks in people skills.
