Even though the Dr and staff saw my pup for a short time they showed so much compassion. It is obvious how much they care for their patients and their "parents".

Extremely disappointed with the lack of professionalism and consistency from the front office staff…read moreat Thurman Veterinary Clinic. I called around 8:30 a.m. this morning to establish care for my two French Bulldogs and was told that they were accepting new patients but it would be a month out. The receptionist began collecting my information to create patient charts, discussed scheduling appointments for June, and was in the process of preparing the required $40 per pet appointment hold fee when the call was disconnected. When I called back later, a different receptionist informed me that the clinic was not accepting new patients and that I would not be able to establish care there. When I explained that another staff member had literally begun the intake process and was preparing to collect payment for appointments, I was simply told, "I don't know, but we're not taking new patients." The complete lack of communication and consistency was incredibly frustrating. Based on the glowing reviews, I expected a much more professional and organized experience. While I cannot speak to the quality of the veterinary care itself, the customer service and handling of front-office communication left a very poor first impression.

A Truly Exceptional Dog Daycare!…read more Intro: We have been taking Maximus (Pomeranian mix) to Dogtopia for over 3 months and we can't say enough great things about Dogtopia! From the moment we walked in, I knew Maximus was in good hands. The staff is warm, attentive, and genuinely cares about every dog that comes through the door. They take the time to learn each dog's personality and make sure they feel comfortable, included, and engaged. They treat Maximus like family, and it shows in how excited he is to come back. Story: Before Dogtopia, my sister and I would take Maximus to the dog park where he would get scared and attacked by big dogs. So when my sister heard about them on Instagram, she convinced me to take a tour of the facility. Overall, the facility was great and massive. I had doubts at first but the staff, Mr. Giesick and Jensen, were able to answer all of our questions so we decided to enroll Maximus. Health (Vaccination): They take safety seriously, so every dog is evaluated before joining playgroups, and they make sure all vaccinations are up to date. That level of care gives me total peace of mind. Cleanliness: Their commitment to cleanliness is outstanding. The staff is constantly cleaning the floors, promptly picking up any poop, mopping up the pee, and wiping down the crates to keep everything fresh and sanitary. It's clear they work hard to maintain a healthy, comfortable environment for all the dogs. Schedule: They also follow a great daily schedule that keeps the dogs happy and well-balanced. From Monday through Fridays: 7am-12pm, it's all playtime; 12pm-2pm is lunch and nap time so the pups can rest and recharge; then from 2pm-7pm, it's back to playtime until closing. It's a perfect routine that helps Maximus stay active but also gives him the downtime he needs. Cameras: One of my favorite features are the cameras. They let me peek into the playroom throughout the day to see how Maximus is doing. It's such a comfort to watch him having fun, playing with other dogs, and getting all his energy out in a safe, supervised environment. I notice he loves sitting on the orange steps in the toy room and sometimes likes to play with Dixie, Honey, Bruno and Charlie. App: We can view the cameras through their dogtopia app, and the login process is simple and quick with no hassle at all. On the app, we can also update Maximus's daycare schedule, add bath time, or even schedule an overnight stay for an additional cost, which is perfect for when we travel and our fur baby can't come with us. Being able to manage everything so easily is incredible. Staff: The staff deserves a special shout-out. Jensen is bubbly, sweet, and always greets Maximus with genuine enthusiasm. Quinn is incredibly kind and has a calm presence that puts both dogs and owners at ease. Some mornings, Mr. Giesick greets us with a wave and a warm smile, he's always happy to take Maximus. They always tell us what a good boy he is when we pick him up, and that means so much. Their dedication and positivity make all the difference. Rooms: The facility is clean, safe, and full of fun activities that keep the dogs active and happy throughout the day. I love that they separate playgroups by size and temperament, it gives me peace of mind knowing Maximus is playing with well-matched buddies. The three dedicated rooms are Toy, Romper, and Gym. Each designed for different sizes and play styles of dogs. Maximus is a small Pomeranian so he is in the Toy room surrounded by compatible playmates, which makes his experience even better. They also make sure each room has two bowls of fresh water, so the dogs can stay hydrated throughout the day. Instagram: The regular updates and photos on Instagram are a huge bonus and always brighten my day! They even gave us a report card for Maximus, which was such a thoughtful touch. It highlighted how he played, who he made friends with, and how he behaved. Something every dog parent appreciates. Summary: Maximus comes home tired, happy, and excited to go back every single time. Finding a place you can trust with your furry family member is priceless, and this daycare delivers above and beyond. If you're looking for a daycare where your dog will be loved, carefully monitored, and cared for in an exceptionally clean and well-structured environment, this is the place. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and fun environment for their dog!

Although I was nervous about leaving my new girl with a stranger, Breanna wasn't a stranger after my first meeting with her. Her philosophy's on dog care and training were exactly what we needed. I also felt comfortable asking her questions and suggestions on some skin issues that Marina was having. Knowing that she had been a Registered Vet Tech made me feel comfortable taking her advice. Marina stayed with Breanna during the day while I was at work for about 2 months. She gained social skills while interacting with her family and other dogs. She actually bonded with her cat.

To my surprise I quickly learned otherwise. First session Jay addressed the running out the front door when opened. Jazz immediately obeyed Jay and myself. So impressive! Second session we needed Jazz to sit on his bed during breakfast & dinner. While his owner in a wheelchair enjoys his meals. Jay accomplished that in half the session. Third session was walking.

I have no idea what life he had before. However, now Jazz is living his best life ever thanks to Tails of Success. I have always felt professional dog trainer have. value.
