I love getting my dog's birthday cookies here, as well as other snacks for him. Reasonably priced and they have a rewards program! Well worth it and Ann always has a smile on her face. She also takes donation of blankets and towels for a local dog fostering program. Check it out, definitely worth it!

I just moved to the Portsmouth NH area and did not know of a vet in the area. My old cat, Sammie,…read morewas getting more thin and going downhill fast. I took Sammie to the Port City Veterinary Referral Hospital at almost 9:00pm at night. The staff were kind and helpful. They checked in with me for every step of the exam and procedures. Ultimately, it was decided that Sammie's quality of life would not be good, so the ultimate decision had to be made. The Staff were so understanding and helpful during the process. Even though the result was not what I wanted, I felt that the Staff were professional, caring, and helpful through out the whole experience. I appreciate the Port City Veterinary Referral Hospital and recommend them to any pet owner. (Hopefully with better results in most cases.)

Cindy came to my apartment and really helped me to find ways to make my dog comfortable. Not only does she train the dog but she helps you understand how to read your dog in different situations. She uses positive reinforcement to train and it has been a wonderful experience. Cindy goes above and beyond her training sessions by sending informational papers to read about training, letting you take videos of the sessions, and allowing you to call or text her with any questions you have. Overall, my dog has improved a lot and the experience with Cindy was fantastic!

I took my two dogs to The Barking Dog to be boarded for their first time for three days. I called…read moreonce a day to check in and everyone said they were doing well but there were no videos being posted which concerned me. After I called they did post one that included my pups but I had been told that there would be one a day and the video had only a single clip of them. My dogs come from a shelter and I needed to know that they were getting out to play with other dogs and people and not just being cooped up in their 'condo'. When I picked them up they gave me a report on how they did in the pool and during playtime with a picture on each and they had been given a free bath so they smelled great. I understand that videos are a pain to post but that was my big hang up. I was upset when I arrived because I didn't even know for sure whether or not they had been given bedding. I was never shown where they were actually going to stay after it was set up and the other dogs I saw during the tour either had their own bedding or did not have much. I would take my dogs here again only on the contingency that videos would actually be posted and I had verification that they were given bedding. Otherwise, I would have absolutely brought bedding rather than just two measly blankets if I knew that might be the case. My dogs are so precious to me and I just needed a little bit more reassurance without feeling like there was some dishonesty happening. A place like The Barking Dog is difficult to maintain and dog hair is a pain to clean. I am very grateful for all the work the staff does and the time they take to ensure they get exercise and socialization. Thank you for taking care of Emmie and Myson. I hope that if there is a next time things can be a little more cut and dry.

When I spoke with a "supervisor" on my last call she really could not care less. She blamed her front desk staff and said the trainer never got my messages without even asking her staff for their side of the story.
