The last time he was there he was overwhelmed and was trying to get out according to the staff. My dog normally goes to Rover Come Over on week days and I am aware that my husky gets overwhelmed with other dogs sometime, so the staff at rover just separate him from the other dogs for about an hour and he's fine for the rest of the day. At pups paradise they told me he has too many behavioral issues and needs to be put on medication or they can't take him. I'm not putting my dog on meds because they don't want to deal with him. Sounds like they throw the dogs in and don't care about them at all.

The tragedy began upon arrival as the manager Denise refused to greet or introduce our dogs to ANY staff member as we recommend so the dogs are familiar with someone. Denise stated that there are various employees who may interact with them ( she and Savanna was there every day) and further refused. Trusting that they knew best we left for A 5 day vacation. The first phone check, I was informed that the dogs did not eat, second day call, dogs not eating and won't take medications. Rather than problem solve or consider options I was informed that no further attempts to give meds would be offered, the next phone call was the dogs were not welcoming to staff, so no further attemts to walk the dogs would be made, with no options. At this point I'm out of town and very concerned for my dogs. I had to spend many hours of my vacation trying to find someone to rescue my dogs as Savanna and Denise was in communication and offered no assistance just further restrictions progressing to hands off plan as they described my dogs as rigid and growling. leaving the 2 big dogs in a 4x 8 cage with no human contact! I think the dogs were terrified and confused. After frantic persuit I reached someone familiar to go and take my dogs outside and check on them. They were found frightened, withdrawn laying in soiled bedding. My heart was broken at the lack of concern or empathy for our pets. The manager Denise had nothing to offer for assistance. I Had to pay a substantial amout of money to have someone remove my devistated pets and care for them. The final uncaring act was Savanna charged an additional $20 late pick up fee after 1pm, no apology or cocern in any way. THEY Lacked Compassion and in my opinion lacked care or concern for our dogs. I DON'T THINK 1 EMPLOYEE TOUCHED or attempted to comfort OUR DOGS. I understand the need to protect the staff, dogs are animals and frightened dogs may be unpredictable but A bit of empathy and concern for the dogs, listenening to the owner to intoduce the dog and a simple apology may have helped, but I would NOT recommend This facility for boarding my dogs ever again.

The facility was built with dogs in mind...before it was A Walk In The Park, the building was the home of the Toledo Area Humane Society. The building is more than large enough, and the yard is even bigger. The staff is awesome...just plain awesome. You can tell that every single person working here really loves dogs, and the dogs, at least my dog, seems to love all of them. We recently left our puppy here when we weren't able to take him with us on vacation. My wife, who still does Facebook (LOL), logged in daily to see videos and pix of the pack including our boy, so she and the kids (and me too, I guess) felt connected. When we got home and went to pick him up, he was happy to see all four of us, but he didn't want to leave...I guess dogs really are pack animals. We also utilize doggie daycare a couple time per week. As far as pet safety goes, and I might not have this exactly right, but I think the dogs are grouped by age and size. That is, the large breed puppies are kept together, and the small breed puppies are keep together. The large breed adults are kept together...etc. In other words, you don't have to worry about your chihuahua pup getting eaten by a Doberman. Great business, and great location. Five stars.

My 7 month old puppy, Mikey, just finished the 20 day training program at Diamonds in the Ruff. I…read moretruly can't say enough positive things about our experience. Lisa's program is successful for a multitude of reasons, but perhaps the most important of those is that she is as dedicated to the "pet parent" as she is to the pet. Lisa always made me feel welcome and comfortable at her center and she tweaked her methods to suit the learning approach seemed to work best for me. Which, with her incredible instinct, she was able to assess very early in our dealings what MY educational needs were. Likewise, she has an incredible talent with the dogs and truly has a gift in relating to and understanding them. To say that Lisa is a natural leader is an understatement of enormous proportions. The physical presence that exudes from her small frame and the calm energy that CONSISTENTLY radiates from her exemplifies the picture of confidence and total belief in oneself and in ones actions. This is an image that I draw on when I need a "boost" and it is an image that consistently motivates me and reminds me of the calm and relaxed state that my dogs are worthy of experiencing day in and day out as part of my pack. There is no person nor animal Diamonds in the Ruff that are unsure of who fills the position of leader, as Lisa's entire being constantly displays that she eagerly accepts the responsibility. This allows the dogs to relax in her presence in a way that is very reassuring as your pet shows you that he/she feels great and is in exceptional care! Perhaps most importantly, the training program is as much a leadership retreat as it is a dog school. Through example, Lisa shows pet parents what leadership "looks" like and what it feels like to be in the presence of a strong and capable leader. The confidence that I gained from Lisa's instruction and wealth of knowledge allows me to see myself in a different light and has impact in all facets of life, not only as it relates to my dogs. No book nor video on canine training or behavior will ever come close to the real life, hands-on experience that I had during Mikey's stay in residency. To be in a pack with Lisa at the helm is, in my opinion, like hitting the dog lottery. To be able to learn from her and employ her techniques, many of which come without word or instruction, is a gift for which I will always be grateful! "My pack" will be life-long clients of Diamonds in the Ruff!
