That means it is very hard to deal with at a Vet office. The owner met me one day and said, "Bring Otis in during your walk. We will give him treats and he can get familiar with our place. I did just that, and Otis started to take me to the front door so he could see his new friends (unbelievable) and get treats. This morning, I took Otis in for an actual visit with the Vet. A vet assistant was educated in these kinds of dogs. She educated me, gave me some sedatives for the next visit and explained that these small bullies are simply like this sometimes. Otis got a shot for the flu (I highly recommend) stool sample, heart and teeth checked. He also got a q-tip in the ear. I had to hold him tight, but it was fine. The staff showed calm professionalism. The facility is pristine, and the parking is plentiful. They have day care, VIP Day care and boarding. Amazing place and so nice for us. I highly recommend.

Both dogs had a vaccine resistant kennel cough and had not been treated for it, one dog had pneumonia. I chose this place because it had a veterinary clinic attached and was assured my pets would be seen if needed. This definitely was not the case. I spent 3X the amount I spent on boarding trying to save my dogs from what they caught at this facility. The vet at the emergency care mentioned the volume of animals at the facility was probably a contributing factor. Never again! Don't be fooled by this new and modern looking place.

I am beyond alarmed by my experience with Magnolia Mutts. I brought my dog in for a temperament…read moreevaluation--a controlled, basic service required before boarding--and during that process, they lost my dog. This is not a minor mistake. It reflects a serious failure in supervision, handling protocols, and basic duty of care. When a business accepts responsibility for an animal, there is an expectation that proper safety measures, secure containment, and trained staff are in place at all times. The emotional distress this has caused my 7yr old daughter cannot be overstated. Pet owners trust facilities like this with members of their family. Losing a dog under your care demonstrates negligence that should concern anyone considering their services. I strongly advise others to carefully evaluate whether this is a safe environment for their pets and to ask detailed questions about their safety procedures, staff training, and incident response protocols.
