I'm writing another review because it's been many months since my first review. I want to say that…read moremy dog still loves going here and still loves Shannon and Jerry. I'll tell my dog we're going to see friends, and he will run to the car. When we turn down their street, he gets excited. When I open the car door, he runs to them! No looking back at me! And they are truly kind people and will love and care for your dog as you would. They are a blessing and I'm so happy to know them!

Hands down the best place we've found for our pups to be given the best care! Our pups (Pit Mix &…read moreWhippet Mix) do best when staying in the same kennel - here at Bark and Stay Lodge they have plenty of room for our big boys to share a space. You can tell Shannon truly loves animals and has put a lot of love and hard work into the lodge. There is a great outdoor space and toys for entertainment + VERY CLEAN! I highly recommend reaching out to Shannon/Jerry for your pup stay needs.

DO NOT BOARD YOUR PET HERE -- NEGLIGENT AND TRAUMATIZING EXPERIENCE…read more If you care even remotely about the wellbeing of your pet, do not leave them at this facility. We boarded our healthy, happy cat here for just four days, and what we got back was a traumatized animal who needed emergency medical care, he didn't even look or act like himself -- he was severely dehydrated, lethargic, not eating, not drinking, not going to the bathroom, major vomiting, and had glassy eyes. He was clearly not fed, given water, or cared for properly. Once we picked him up, alarm bells were going off and immediately I said to my partner "what's going on, what happened to him?!" And the moment we got home he was guzzling water from his water bowl, a clear sign of dehydration. We had to take him to the vet multiple times, where he received IV fluids, a steroid shot, GI meds, x-rays, and an ultrasound. The symptoms pointed to acute stress and neglect -- all developed during his short stay at this facility. When we confronted them, they clearly didn't want to hear our story. The level of "we don't care" was off the charts. The very first thing they said to us was "oh just give us the vet bill, we'll take care of it." Which raised concern - we never asked them for this. Then they said they'd try to find out info from whoever watched our cat those days, but they never followed up like they said they would. Instead, they cut us a check (which we didn't even ask for) -- just to get rid of us. No questions about what happened. No concern. No apology. Just a silent attempt to sweep this under the rug. Once they gave us a check I thought for sure the owner would reach out and ask us about our experience, but Wendy never did. One of the girls that worked there said she's not really involved in running her business (Wendy the owner lives out of state, btw). We trusted them with a member of our family, and what we got in return was negligence, evasiveness, and a massive vet bill (to be transparent, their check covered half, we spent over a thousand out of pocket b/c our cat had to go back multiple times - all worth it but wouldn't wish this on our worst enemy). This isn't just a bad review -- this is a WARNING. Do not risk your pet's health by boarding them here. Zero stars if I could.

I first saw a puppy they had for adoption listed on their website and fell in love. I called them and they told me to complete an application which I did. They did their vetting (no pun intended) and I drove me and my 2 pups to Tyler for a meet and greet with our potential adoptee. Once I arrived, I found a volunteer qho got me to another volunteer who brought our potential adoptee out to meet us. Me and my pups fell in love and we all agreed she was welcome into our family! Thanks Terry and team for a wonderful experience!

No video shows incident. They also claim no responsibility to injury and I'm left with a very hefty medical bill. Pet owners need to be aware that this place and possibly others will leave you with just a "Sorry that this happened"!response if your dog is injured. If I can give this place 5 negative stars I would. This is total negligence and irresponsibility on their part. I believe they care more about taking your Benjamin's than caring for your Bengie!

I picked a level 5 but the owner talked me into a level 4 since it'll be easier to manage the shedding with. When I called and made the appointment, I told the lady I did not want him shaved or cut too short. When I arrived I told the lady 4 times that: 1. I've never had a dog groomed before so a professional recommendation would be appreciated. 2. Do not shave MY DOG!!! I want to keep him longer just trim all the wispy hairs up and give him an GOLDEN CUT. I kid you not... I picked him up and he is SHAVED!!! All but his tail was touched. I was at a loss of words. We called after I got home and now the owner is arguing with us and refuses to believe he really is that short. She also told me it was MY fault because I "pointed" at the board when the cut lengths. As a professional... would you advise if cuts were against what the customer asked for? Wouldn't you guide them in something that's new to them but THEIR PROFESSION?!? I will never return and will forever warn people about the incompetence running wild through this facility. His undercoat has been damaged. His hair texture has completely changed. His coat doesn't grown back in curly anyone (my favorite part and the whole reason I don't want him shaved). Our vet advised us, it won't ever grow back the same and will take at least two years to fix the damage they caused. This is your warning- do yourself a favor and STAY FAR AWAY!!!
