If your dog is signed up for walks it goes around that little path out in front of the place and then right back into the crates. The workers will mishandle your dogs, call them cruel names, and physically push them where they want them to go. Your dogs are not being treated the way you think, if they seem happy when you pick them up it's because they are so relieved to be out of this awful place NOT because they had a good time.

3rd Class In for a 3 Month Old Puppy... Wow Watch Out!…read more We started off at Canis, and it was truly awesome. Unfortunately, after a few sessions, the co-owner, Derrick, messaged me through their chat platform to say that our puppy had been making noise in her crate that day. This was a one-off situation -- she'd had some stomach issues in the days prior -- but he warned that if it happened two more times, she would be removed from the program. I understand it's their program and their rules, but his communication style was extremely direct -- almost as if he were speaking to a dog -- harsh and matter-of-fact. He told me that how I receive and perceive his messages is "on me." Talk about customer-oriented! If he ever took a class on people or management, he might learn that there's an old saying: perception is reality. I also had a few billing questions, and since texts weren't resolving the issue, I asked multiple times for him to call me, which he eventually did. From the start of that call, he was defensive and completely closed to any feedback about his communication style. I was honestly shocked at how the conversation unfolded and even asked if he was the owner or manager. Despite all this, I genuinely wanted to continue working with them. In short, they removed us from the program the very next day and promptly refunded our fees. My advice: don't offer him any feedback -- he doesn't take it well. It's a real shame, because the staff at Canis are wonderful, and the facility and programs themselves are truly impressive. We had been raving fans and recommended them to everyone, so this turned out to be a very disappointing experience.

Not only does my dog, Timber enjoy the exposure to other dogs but I've been making great friends along the way! And on days like today when Timber has trouble controlling his big dog energy, Bee and Derrick are so patient and helpful.

The group walks are in different locations each week and it's easy to sign up and find the locations in the CMDT member portal. I'm so happy that Timber and I have found this credible community. All week we look forward to Saturday mornings!

We explored several doggie daycare facilities before landing on Bark Palace. After almost a year of…read moresending our pup here, we are certain we made the right choice. My wife, myself, and most importantly our dog love Bark Palace and their staff. Pros: - During our initial enrollment, our dog was primarily kept up front with the staff for several days as a trial run to ensure he was comfortable being with the other dogs - The back room has many different sections to separate different types of dogs, and includes access to an outside area. This was a big differentiator, as many of the other places we looked at seemed to indicate they'd drop our little guy in a big room with dogs of all different sizes and personalities. - They seem to be very flexible in terms of scheduling/timing. As long as we are somewhat "regulars," we don't need to notify them of which days our dog will be coming. They also have great hours for drop off (opening as early as 6:30 on most days) and pickup, and the few times we've boarded our dog, we've been able to pick him up on the weekends. - All of the folks working there have been great and seem to be true dog lovers, including the owners who are often times there working themselves. They also frequently post pictures and videos of the dogs playing. Cons: - Some of the people there are NY Giants fans. Our dog, Brady (named after the greatest), doesn't seem to mind too much, though.

I like the cameras they have in the front office, so you get to see what the dogs are doing in the back. The dog suites are spacious and well lit.

I strongly recommend them!!!
