We were nervous to leave the dog overnight because she was a rescue and hasn't been away from us since we got her a few weeks ago prior. The people at the front desk were super nice and gave us a tour, which I really appreciated! A week ago, I got a great "report card" for my dog from her stay. I thought it was such a great touch and really impressed me! The card said that she did great, ate well and made friends, which made me so happy! I wish someone would have told me all of that though, when I picked her up, so I could have known right away! Also, they offer a great service where you can trade up your last day of board (for a little extra money) and do a 'grooming' instead. My dog still smells good :) It was the first kennel I've ever seen, so it seemed small to me, but maybe that's how they are all! I would definitely recommend this place to anyone who wants their dog in a clean, safe and friendly environment! I will be taking my pup back for sure-- and I think I'm going to try bringing her to their day care. This place is very reasonably priced! THANK YOU!

If you love or even like your dog do NOT bring them here for any reason. I brought my one year old…read morecockapoo in today for his first grooming, he had some matting behind his ears but besides that he just needed a bath. I dropped him off at 9:30am and they left him sitting until around noon. At 12:45 I got a nonchalant call from the front desk saying my puppy had a " nickel sized hole cut into his ear and would need to be seen by a vet". The staff workers begrudgingly answered my questions about what had occurred and seemed absolutely unfazed by the injury, leading me to believe that this is not a rare occurrence. My puppy had to get stitches all alone at the vet due to covid 19 rules. He has to take a strong antibiotic for 10 days and the vet also said he had signs of heat exhaustion and dehydration. When I dropped him off they assured me he would be safe, in a controlled temperature room, and would have access to water. This was all a lie. Today the temperature reached 95 degrees and I can only assume the dogs at this facility were left outside or in an un air conditioned room without access to water for extended periods of time. When we arrived at the vet, he also found cuts on my dog that they hadn't told us about under his ears. The vet was easily able to remove the matts behind his ears and said that this was negligence on the employees parts. They didn't even begin to remove the matting or bathe him in any way, this means that after they left him sitting for hours they immediately cut his ear and sent him home...This was my dogs first experience being away from our family and he is traumatized to say the least. STAY FAR FAR AWAY FROM THIS PLACE.

Prior to going to red dog, she has gone to 2 different doggy day cares (due to relocating). People used to ask me how I knew she liked going and I told them "it's because she's always so excited to go inside and usually drags me in the door. At her past daycares, the workers were some of her favorite people. When I moved to Boston, the was NOT the case at the red dog resort. In fact it was the opposite, as she was dragging me away from the place and was visibly shaking when I would drop her off after her first couple of stays. I told the front desk person I was concerned but gave them the benefit of the doubt and simply asked they give me a call to check in later that afternoon to give me some peace of mind. Nobody called me. This happened TWICE on two separate occasions back to back. When I picked her up the second time I told them how frustrated I was and they told me that the daycare is very big and busy and they can't keep up with call requests despite being told before that it wasn't a problem the day prior. They also told me that the manager Bobby would give me a call to rectify this and after over WEEK he never called me. I have still not heard from anyone about this except for a text message from them that ended with them continuing to string me along waiting for a call. Their customer service and management seems to be run poorly and appears to be impacting the quality of their care (as evidence of my dogs physical reaction to going into their care). I am very frustrated for my dog and for myself for giving them so many chances.

When we were bringing our pet here it was fine but ever since a few people last year have left it has gone downhill. I've even been here when the owner was here and the facility was still being neglected. Not only that but after speaking with employees and seeing some of the reviews online it seems that the owner will try to get peoples claims basically denied as if they're untrue. there is one post here that says a persons dog was denied because of their breed the owner straight up lied I've seen you guys take boxers without any problem. I also noticed no water bowl the last too times and i wont have that.

Ian and staff are very thoughtful and have the best interest of the dogs in their care at heart…read more Great communication through the app and over email. The staff always sent one update through the app each time my dog stayed with them. This is a great daycare for dogs who love to play with other dogs. It's a pretty stimulating environment for dogs, and Ian acknowledged that. My dog did daycare there and boarded with them for a few nights. I would describe my lil dude as pretty human oriented, has separation anxiety, and fancies himself to be an escape artist. The staff always made sure to give him some special attention and managed him in a way that prevented him from jumping barriers during pick up. Honestly, he can sometimes be a PITA and wants all the human attention. I think that can be pretty disruptive at a dog day care (sorry Ian and staff!) Regardless, I was most impressed with Diamond (I think that's her name) is super professional and compassionate. She warmly greeted my dog (and I!) every time we came in when she was working and seemed to figure out the quirks of my pup. TL;DR- BDW is a thoughtful, safe dog daycare. Keep in mind not all dogs might love a dog day care environment. However, give Big Dog Walkin' a try, especially if your dog loves playing with other pups. I would try their dog walking services in the future!

I cannot say enough great things about Canine Behavioral Services, they have created such positive change in my two dogs and allowed for them to grow and flourish in our home! Brian continues to support us even after the completion of the program which has been incredibly helpful as we continue to maintain a balanced household for the dogs.

Not for vet reactive pets…read more Prior to this month, I was satisfied overall with Porter Square Vet despite some mild issues, primarily around communication. I don't generally publish complaints but due to the vets unwillingness to discuss their errors, I feel obligated to warn any pet owners with vet-reactive dogs. When I moved to Somerville and brought my dog to Porter Square Vet, I was transparent that my dog is vet reactive. I mentioned that he doesn't like the vet in general but that he doesn't tolerate exams. I also mentioned that I had previously used a fear free vet who was willing to do sedation for annual exams / as needed to ensure adequate care. I was told we could consider that if it proved to be necessary. At my dog's first exam with them, I was given recommendations for dental hygiene products, which i purchase and utilized. At his last exam, I specifically asked about dental cleanings, as I had noticed a good amount of plaque build up on my dogs teeth when I was brushing them. The vet looked at my dogs mouth briefly and I was told it was necessary at that time. I brought my dog in this month due to non-specific behavior changes as well as some dietary issues and worsening bad breath. The vet offered a dental cleaning/check, which I agreed to. The procedure overall went fine, but I was told my dog had significant periodontal disease and that they had removed 14 teeth which was confusing considering I was told a dental clean was not warranted just 5 months prior. Upon voicing my frustration, I was told "the vet was unable to exam his teeth due to being muzzled for the exam." My dog requires additional vet care for which I sought a different practice since Porter Square Vet was unable to develop or follow an appropriate care plan and Porter Square Vet has now opted to ignore me.

They often contradict themselves. For example, they said that stressful situations could kill a cat with a heart condition and so we should never put him in any stressful situations. Then, they said we should take him to a cardiologist (outside their office) twice a year for monitoring. Those are by far the most stressful experiences he's ever been in. Later, they prescribed him a medication in the form of pills that we were to split in half. We were to give him half at each meal. After we ran out of the initial prescription, we wanted them to be delivered. They push people to order medication through Covetrus, rather than Chewy or anything else because they make more money that way (https://covetrus.com/covetrus-platform/prescription-management/online-pharmacy/). So, we tried that. They would not approve the original prescription, and instead asked to buy tablets. They were adamant about that, but those actually were not available on Covetrus. Instead, they said we should get these compounded pills instead of splitting the original-sized pills. The compounded pills are eight times more expensive. We already pay a lot for three other cat medications and could use a break. When I asked to talk to the vet tech about this, the admin said they wouldn't talk to me. In short, something is wrong there. They often don't agree with themselves, and they're not really there to work with you to care for your pet; they're there to get you out of the way.

Our new vet was shocked with the lack of treatment and pain relief offered. We are more than disappointed with Foxboro Animal Hospital, we are incredibly upset and angry. Don't expect a call back with test results, don't expect any follow up, don't expect adequate care. Expect them to not write notes about treatment, expect to be ignored and have your concerns downplayed, expect the wrong treatment, if you're lucky enough to get any treatment at all.
