We started going here in 2020, and initially had a good experience with both our dogs…read more This year has been a disaster though. When I brought in my dogs for their vaccinations, they completely missed the date of one of my dogs rabies vaccination and he ended up being unvaccinated for months. When I called them about this, the person who answered the phone didn't apologize and was very flippant about it. I had to advocate for an apology, and it was only at that point that they offered to comp the cost of the appointment. Then this month, one of my dog's was sick, and I had to wait three days for an appointment b/c they had only had one vet on staff. We finally got bloodwork done and I was told we'd hear back from the doctor the next day. I called at 4pm the next day as I hadn't heard anything (mind you, my dog still is sick), and they weren't able to tell me anything. I then had to call back again at 11am the following day, and a diagnosis of diabetes was delivered over the phone by a receptionist - with no empathy, no explanation, no walking me through a care plan, or what to expect, etc. They then told me I had to go to ANOTHER vet down the road to learn how to administer insulin. It was horrendous, and to this day, no one has called to follow up to see how he's even doing or what the status is. All that to say, we're now happy customers down the road at Noah's Ark Animal Hospital. They are kind, professional, knowledgeable, caring, and generous. I recommend them as an alternative to this place.

We love Dawg House. We started with private training for our dog Sully and my son's dog Brandy…read more Jess is a great and very knowledgeable and professional dog trainer! We also have Sully going a couple days a week to their doggy daycare program. He loves his days there and comes home totally exhausted from all the fun things he and other dogs who are there do while they are there. The end of January my husbands mother passed away and we had to go to Boston for about 10 days. We boarded Sully with Dawg House and opted for their open boarding and he had a good time with the other dogs that were boarding there when he was there. Jess and Stan and their staff are great with the dogs. We are so glad we found Dawg House when we moved to this area and Sully is very happy about it too.

I had no issues before then. However, my dog also had the same exact looking cut on his nose in the same spot. It looked remarkably similar, and no one even told me. I just saw it upon picking him up, treated it and now it is a scar. This is really making me wonder. I wasn't even going to leave a posting because I thought perhaps it was just too rough of play and staff didn't intervene. However, upon seeing this happened to someone else's dog, it's making me worry that this is more common than I thought and could potentially be from something besides another dog. Be careful.

As you can see, I am the first review. Now, I dont want to completely butcher Dogtopia, however I…read moream unsettled and upset with their unprofessionalism. I left my dog here for two nights. With the previous establishment, Canine Kindergarden, my dog never ONCE got hurt, and we have been loyal customers for years. Dogtopia: 10 hours of crate time is too much. If a dog gets hurt in a sensitive area, please treat the wound. Do not take more dogs than you can handle. My dog is part of my family, and if my son came home with an untreated wound on his nose, that would later scar and look like this, I think any parent would be unhappy. I am sad that my dog has this scar. Good luck Dogtopia, I sympathize towards a new establishment, and do not want to butcher you with this review, however I feel the need to voice my concerns and my dog will not be returning. My dog was just diagnosed with two cornea ulcers, and a wound on her paw. Along with the wound on her nose. Screw being sympathetic- my dog gets hurt and I have to pay for these medical bills. Never. Returning. Hi Amy, You and I both know that the vet did not say it was due to her allergies. They were cornea ulcers; lacerations on her eye. Not from "allergies". Google it. Say what you want but we know the truth-- IF YOUR DOG GETS HURT HERE, THEY WILL NOT REFUND YOU FOR ANYTHING! You will be forced to pay all the medical bills alone. Terrible customer service, terrible workers, they DONT care about the saftey of your dogs, only about the MONEY THEY MAKE!! Customer beware. Your dog will be a little to happy to see you at pickup.

Although VERY excited to see him.. she also kept running back to Carol and her pup friends.. a bit wanting to stay as well as wanting to go I recommend Central Bark in Danbury, CT to ALL dog owners!
