The cabins are lovely and many amenities provided to ensure a pleasant stay. Guests may chose to spend time with the animals or enjoy this beautiful area located near Guernsey Wyoming. Its about a 3-4 hour drive from Denver and large lake nearby for boating or fishing activities. Close to a small town with good cafes offering decent food if you don't want to cook.

I contacted to ask about being a foster for a post I found on Facebook, Anouk Eliza Roman wrote…read moreback and she was just terrible. I asked if fostering could lead to adoption and she informed me that people who live in Texas will not be approved. The dogs in question are in Texas, so I didn't understand what her problem was. She also stated that if a foster is not found they will go to the shelter, no transport just going to the shelter. So because I asked if fostering could lead to adoption, she said I would not qualify to foster, and taking them to the shelter is better? She was rude and then made statement that really had me question her mental well being. If this person is the one behind this so called rescue stay away.

I called later begging them to see her and was told to wait til they opened. I paid ER fees and was willing to pay them again to save my dog as she was in agony. As her Momma, I knew she was sick and that should have been a reasonable assumption of the vet too. My dog died because a vet didn't care enough. I'll never take another animal there.

Beware! I recently worked as Broadmoor's assistant manager. As someone who is extremely passionate…read moreabout animals, I felt the need to leave a review, so that others can make a fair, accurate, and educated decision before boarding their pet at Broadmoor. First and foremost, there is no such thing as play time with your animal and staff. Dogs are locked in a kennel 24/7, often with nothing but a small thin blanket or towel to lay. This privilege is frequently taken away if your dog displays high anxiety. Providing your own blanket or dog bed won't change this, as animal belongings are NEVER given to them. Most dogs soil the contents of their kennel on a nightly basis and instead of cleaning dogs belongings multiple times, all belongings are marked and put in a cubby. They will not tell you this at time of drop off. Their operational schedule is posted below in a picture, but as you can see, Dogs remain in their indoor kennel from 4pm to 8am, a total of 16 hours... and there is no time or opportunity for staff to interact with dogs one on one. There is also no boarding staff on-site between 530pm and 630am. The messes that are made during their isolated 16-hour stint are cleaned up each morning at 8:30am. Nearly every kennel is riddled with urine and poop inside. Few dogs are able to hold it for this long. I brought up my concerns and offered alternative solutions or ideas, but was immediately dismissed. Even with daily cleaning, kennel cough has been going around the facility for the past few months. As a manager, I handled 2-3 weekly customer complaints about their dog coming down with the illness. As for grooming, their best groomer just left, and only one remains. The remaining groomer can barely handle 6 dogs a day and often, these dogs return to be fixed. 2/3's of the upcoming appointments will need to be canceled or rescheduled. I spent hours each week calling owners. Managements fix was to have kennel staff do groom dogs. Speaking of management, Bobby, their manager, hired me for my managerial expertise and extensive administrative background. He's ran boarding ops by for a long time and is the brother to one of the owners. Despite the many recommendations I suggested, Bobby denied all of them. Many were directed to improve comfort to the animals. Bobby rather focus on rediculous tasks that actively jepordized the health and safety of employees. He felt the constant need to micromanage but would complain about being bothered on his days off. Bobby commonly assigned deep cleaning tasks for the weekend. These tasks were difficult because kennels were full and we were understaffed. I found out this has been an ongoing issue. Many could be completed in the middle of the week, when the facility was nearly empty, and staffing was not an issue. It would certainly allow us time to focus on dog interaction. Despite tasks still getting done, Bobby always found reason to complain. It's degrading when you work your butt off all weekend and then wake up to texts, claiming nothing got done. Bobby wants his employees to be "yes men/women". During my last weekend, it was 10-15 degrees out and snowing. We were directed to empty the planters full of frozen soil. Bobby didn't care how and wanted employees outside hacking at frozen soil with shovels. Bobby, as a manager, is completely failing this company. As for the vet side, dogs cannot receive vaccinations in a timely manner. Dogs would be boarding for days without vaccinations. Also, my own pup injured herself. The vet side took a look and said she was fine. I took her to Cheyenne Pet Clinic and within 3 minutes they determined she had a torn cruciate ligament. Attached is proof to support my above statements. Step your game up Broadmoor. Treat the dogs and your employees better!
