I have a 7 month old male Boxer that went to Mutty Paws for the first time on 08/03 and 08/04 2026…read more When I dropped him off the first day I asked what type of reinforcement they use. I was told that if a dog gets rowdy they put it in a 15 minute time out, and with three times outs they're kenneled for the remainder of the day. That seemed logical and acceptable to me. On his first day there I was told he got a little rowdy (which is not unusual for a Boxer) and had a 15 minute time out. Ok; fine, that's acceptable. When I picked him up on the second day I was told he had not had a time out and was very sweet. I called back later in the week to schedule two days for the week of 08/10-08/14. I asked if Mutty Paws has cameras as I was interested in watching my dog play and interact with the other dogs. The link was texted to me. My husband and I downloaded the link. Today, 08/11/26 I took my dog back and arrived at 10:30am. We watched him play until 11:17am - basically 40 minutes from the time I arrived with him to stay the day. Apparently he got rowdy and we watched him being led out by his collar to what I was told would be a 15 minute time out. Again; acceptable. My husband continued to watch the feed waiting on our dog to return to the group. At approximately 12pm, my husband called to say that our dog had still not returned to the play group. That is 40 minutes he was missing from any camera. At 12:10pm he had still not been returned to the play group. I drove back to Mutty Paws and asked if perhaps there were play areas without cameras. I was told, no, but that sometimes the cameras didn't show the entire view if dogs were in corners, etc. By now the time is 12:45 and still no sign of my dog on a camera. By this point, I told the girl at the reception desk that my dog had not been seen for approximately 90 minutes and told her to take me to where my dog was. Another girl at the reception desk left the area and came back with the information that Xander was still in time out, in the kennel. The girl that had initially told me about the 3 time outs replied that perhaps he had been rowdy and was put in time out again. Let me remind you that he had only been there 40 minutes when he was taken to time out at 11:17 and had not been returned to the play area after 15 minutes. He had not been returned to the play area in 90 minutes. I told her that there was no way he could have gotten into trouble 3 times (which meant all day kennel) in the 2 hours he had been there. Whether or not he would have been allowed to return to the play group is unknown as I told her I wanted my dog, to pay the fee, and to remove him from their roster. How do I know that he wasn't left in the kennel the first day after the supposed 15 minute time out. I don't!... which is obviously of concern to me after what happened today (08/11/26. My dog will not be returning to Mutty Paws only to be left in a kennel all day. That is definitely NOT what I signed up for. My only regret regarding watching the play area today is that I did not record the time Xander was missing. Cheryl Mauney I need time emphasize that Xander is in no way aggressive. He just wants to love on people and be loved. Being a Boxer, he is bouncy and sometimes get excited.... but he should never have been subjected to a 90 minute time out after only being there 40 minutes.

We have been taking our dog to Mutty Paws for some time for grooming…read more We have had decent experiences up until the last two which were bad. We are not risking a third. The groomer shaved her nipples off the last two times. She developed scabs and we told them about it after the first. But it happened again. A part of the pad on her foot was shaved off as well. She has been shaking, lethargic and extra sensitive to gentle touch. I called to let them know, they apologized over the phone, they said this never happens. But I can see now from other people's reviews similar carelessness and negligence has happened before. The manager asked for a third try to show they can do a good job. After giving them the benefit of the doubt once already and how hurt our dog is, we've lost our trust and won't be bringing her back.

I have been in the animal care taker field for over 10 years now and Happy Tails has been the best place I've ever worked. The personal care and attention each dog receives is unmatchable. Because we don't do "group play" (aka doggie daycare) we are able to solely focus on each individual pet. It also eliminates any worry of dog fights, rough play, injury, or communicable diseases. Each dog and cat is loved and cared for as if they were our very own. Because we are here for YOUR pet, without all the glitz and glamour, we can boast of the lowest prices for excellent service.

A completely unprofessional experience ... We were seeking a…read moreplace for our dogs from 10/4 to 10/14, but our normal place as booked. This was our first and LAST experience with Indian Shoals. We received an email at 5:17pm on10/3 requesting a deposit payment by 5:30pm. My spouse went online and paid. The payment processed through their system at 5:32pm (it shows a 5:26pm time from our bank). I get a text at 5:53pm stating our reservation was cancelled due to no deposit. I text them and inquired about it, they said it was processed too late (their system!) and the reservation was cancelled with NO REFUNDS. After some banter, they "did me a favor" and fixed it - what "favor" it was your system issue?! So, I agreed to allow my dogs to stay. I dropped them off at 2pm on 10/4 with an expected pick up time at or around the same time. On 10/14 I get a text if my dogs are not picked up by 11:45am there would be a late charge (even though I dropped off at 2pm!). I arrive at 11:57, due to some traffic SO they tried to charge me $15 each dog for being late. I told the front deck employee I dropped off at 2pm, with a 2pm pick up. She said "our system" shows 11:45 scheduled pick up, so your late. I paid the $15 each dog "late fee", it is $30 total, after some banter with the front desk employee ---- BUT, they have lost any future business from me. After I reviewed the invoice emailed to me, I noticed I was charged for an additional day of boarding. I had to call and request a refund for their error. I was told they "don't do refunds" - this was their error and they did not want to refund it! ... they finally agreed to refund the $57 over charge, stated it would be refunded to my credit card. After waiting three days for a refund confirmation and several follow up conversations, then they said they would mail me a check for the $57.00. A refund that could have been done same day took over a week to receive via check. Very unprofessional! While I understand owning and operating a small business, their policies add more stress to the process, the person who handles their text interactions is rude over text, and check your invoices for errors. Now lets talk about my pets - they were literally starving when I pickup them up on the 14th. They each ran into the house searching for food and water, acting like they never ate. I supplied ample food for each dog, enough to have extra, which I never was offered back (I forgot to ask with all the frustration). They can keep the extra food, but hopefully this review helps others make better decision on where to trust their animals. Just Stay Away !!!

She looked exactly the same as. when I dropped her off...... hair an inch and a half long and shaggy. paid $70 for the experience and left.
