When I picked my dogs up, I was charged more than expected and told they were "fat," which felt…read moreunprofessional. More importantly, I was very disappointed in the quality of the grooming. My youngest dog, in particular, appears to have received only a partial grooming. The groomer mentioned she had to "wing it," and it shows there are uneven patches in her coat, her belly was only partially trimmed, and her tail and hygiene areas were not cleaned up. It's been four days since their appointment, and neither dog smells fresh or feels clean. In the past, my younger dog's coat has always felt much softer and lighter after grooming, but this time there's no noticeable improvement. I've had to schedule an appointment with another groomer to have her redone. I'm very disappointed in this experience and would not recommend High Country Grooming.

There is no sense reiterating the entire story here but needless to say, this is not a place I will ever put my dog again. He came back losing a lot of weight because he was nervous with so many dogs there and still hasn't shaken that freaked out look after being home. I don't think the care was bad for the dog, but the care for the human owner was abysmal. I have never been treated like this by anyone in the wonderful town of Blowing Rock. Her husband is friendly and sane. If you really must go here, deal with him. He understood why I was upset and was helpful when I rushed to pick my dog up immediately after an international flight (because of the tone of her voice mails that came in while I was on the plane). Totally baffled by the treatment I got and never going back. As the one leading the creation of a dog park here in BR I will be sure to let all the dog parents here in town know. And I have the whack job voicemails saved for emphasis. Scary and awful. Ruined the last leg of my trip because of worry.

Wow after reading this last person's review from 3 years ago I was surprised. I was looking the…read moreinformation up on this wonderful place to share with a friend that has a dog and was going out of town. I had taken my dog here several times in the past and I couldn't have asked for a better place for my dog to have stayed. If the last person's dog was nervous around other dogs how is the owner to blame for that? I don't know the owner on a personal level at all, I simply know her through the times I had dropped my beloved dog off there. And if she was having an off week or something, I am pretty sure that we all have had one of those. Whether someone is opening a dog park or not in Blowing Rock that does not mean they should use their contact power to try and destroy someone's business on an app like Yelp. So to spread some positivity... do not hesitate to take your four legged family member here. You will not be disappointed. The accommodations are above what you will find anywhere else (trust me I had tried them all) and my dog loved it so much that every time we would pull in the driveway she knew exactly where she was and was excited. Anna was never that way any other time I had taken her someplace when I had to go out of town. I just hope the other posters "personality" didn't prevent the dogs in Blowing Rock from getting a dog park. As Mountain Mama's supposed personality conflict with the past-poster shouldn't prevent your dog from staying at the best doggie daycare and boarding in the high country.

Looks like someone's house with a wooden table in the back room to cut your dog open on. Needed a vet to have my dog spayed, this was the only place with openings and now I know why. Went for our consultation and instantly got red flags but brushed them off. My small 30lb 20" tall runt Pup (10 months) has anxiety issues and is vet shy. When I said I'd like her spayed vet said "yeah wouldn't want HER to breed..." which felt super disrespectful and unprofessional to say to me about my dog. The spay was gonna end up being in the upper 400's for a small dog. Took her back for her spay that I waited two months at least for (1 month after consultation), since she's anxious they gave her some sedatives while I was there. Vet techs told me they may keep her overnight if she's not too distraught (she has non destructive separation anxiety) and will call me if need be. I left with a bad feeling like I'd never see my best friend alive again. Hours later I don't hear anything but just brushed it off thinking "well she must be doing ok and just sleeping". Next morning (today) I get down there and all of the vet techs are twiddling their thumbs waiting for me, they say "we couldn't preform the spay". I say "oh no what happened?", one of them (the only one that speaks to anyone) tells me my dog is too difficult to handle... then when I ask about the sedative they say "well there was a death in the family" who's family? Didn't get a straight answer. I feel like as a doctor, you have an obligation to a patient that's already been put "under". If they weren't doing surgeries due to a family death, I don't know why they had two more dogs in cages either recovering or getting ready to be operated on. Apparently, my dog was calm enough for them to grab her by the collar, hook on her leash, and take her out to potty. Does that sound like an uncontrollable dog? Something doesn't add up. My old vet in Florida was able to handle my aunt's unsocialized 80lb aggressive lab, but these people can't handle a scared, 30lb pup. When they opened the door to let her back inside, she was not aggressive or hyper one bit and came straight to me, whining. How can my dog be hard to control when I literally watched them pump her full of sedatives? Isn't she asleep during surgery? They claimed they tried to call me but they used the wrong phone number. There's a 9 in my number that they read as a 7. Despite my "Artist's handwriting" the "9" was pretty unmistakable if you paid attention. They also claimed to try and contact me through FB but why not just take a second look at my number and maybe try a "9"? I had also given them my number previously and it was correct that time. Why was my number not in their computer system? My dog was put outside presumably all night in the freezing mountain weather. Even this morning it was cold enough for me to wear my coat. My dog is half Doberman and can't handle cold weather at all. Vet had other dogs inside in cages but they must've hated my dog so much they put her out in the cold. These girls said they fed my dog but when she got home, she was eating anything she could find when normally she has a light appetite. Owner has a history of replying passive aggressively to these reviews and they'll probably slander me and my dog. Honestly I'm thankful to God, these people decided to not operate because they probably would've removed her liver trying to perform a spay. Never coming back. They obviously had something against me or most likely my dog. But I'm just thankful my girl is cuddling with me as I type this and not in the ground. This place has to be a front because I refuse to believe a true vet would let all this go on.
