My husband Eric and I were looking for a place for our dog so we could take a weekend away from…read morehome, and this place popped up as one of the closest places to us. We have never put her in a kennel before so we wanted to meet the owner and see where she would be staying. The owner texted my husband the address, and he called the number to see what time they are open so he could check it out and then again when he arrived to let them know he was there. A man was outside shoveling, when Eric pulled up to the property and proceeded to YELL & CURSE at my husband telling him to STOP CALLING his wife and telling him to pull over and wait. FIRST OF ALL, who the hell is gonna pull over and wait for you to GIVE YOU BUSINESS when you come at them screaming and cursing about calling?! NOT only that acting as if my husband was calling his wife for anything other then information about the kennel. We JUST FOUND THIS PLACE, we did not know these people. SO WOULD NOT RECOMMEND. Wouldn't trust them to watch a fish. If this is how they treat a protentional customer, I can't imagine how they treat the animals in their care.

My family had a terrible and heartbreaking experience with Wolf Run Veterinary Clinic. My parents…read moretrusted them to board our family dog, Bodhi, while we were out of town for my wedding because he is a patient there and requires insulin injections twice a day. The night of my rehearsal dinner, my mom received a call that completely ruined what should have been a special weekend. We were told that a vet tech gave Bodhi 80 units of insulin instead of 8 units. This is an extremely dangerous mistake, especially for a 22-pound dog. I spent the night before my wedding unable to sleep, terrified about whether he would be okay. Bodhi then had to spend the next two nights on IVs and under monitoring. When my parents were finally able to pick him up, he was covered in pee and poop, had sores from licking, and still had the catheter in his leg. The woman who handed him over said she had never removed one before but could "give it a try." Four days later, Bodhi is still suffering from bloody diarrhea and shaking day and night. What happened was careless, traumatic, and completely unacceptable. Please think twice before boarding your pet here or trusting them with medical care. There are other options in the area, and I wish we had read the reviews more carefully before trusting them with our dog.

She was SO Wonderful with her Huge Empathic Heart towards me. I was called early the next morning only to hear he was too Sick and his Organs had been shutting down for a while due to the Negligence of his Vet he'd seen for 3 yrs!! She overdosed him on Prednisone a dangerously strong Steroid!! She gave him Pancreatitis the second day he was on way too high of amount PREDNISONE! I Trusted her! All she kept doing were blood tests! She missed an Infection he had on the first blood test. For two yrs I kept taking him in for Strange weight gain and he couldn't even climb his stairs anymore to get on the bed. I told he was acting Strange and walking Funny. He had mushy feeling shoulders. She told me he had Fat Packs?? Huh? He had Cushing's Disease!! I'm not the only one that had a dog DIE UNDER THEIR CARE! I Wish I had taken Finn to Wolf run Veterinary Hospital from the beginning! Finn was Never Sick so just shots. Loyalsock Veterinary Hospital is Cheaper than other Bets and closer. Their CHEAPER TO PULL YOU IN! Then they Kill your pets because All the Vets there are HORRIBLE!! Dr Pardoe not only Killed Finn she destroyed my Mental Health Stability and I'm still Suffering! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND WOLF RUN VETERINARY HOSPITAL WHERE YOU AND YOUR PET ARE TREATED WITH HIGHLY KNOWLEDGEABLE VETERINARIAN's!! Spend that Extra Couple of Dollars to see Vets that could save your Furbabies lives! Everything Finn had was Treatable and he could've Survived with the Proper Care! I Highly Recommend Wolf Run to everyone I talk to Especially through my Service Dog Work and even My Online Poodle Groups! Thank you for trying to save Finn's Life! I had him Cremated and even as hard as that was I was treated with such Empathy! His Cremation wooden Box is SO Beautiful! I was Pleasantly Surprised at the Beautiful Bag it came in along with his Foot Print, Sympathy Card and even a Memorial Booklet with a Hotline if you needed to talk about your pets passing.

She takes in larger dogs and even works with them if they are shy, a little dog aggressive and other issues. I have a very sweet but dominant Doberman and she had no problem with her. She took my dog on walks through the forest, let her on the couch and gave her lots of attention. I'm not adverse to kennels but I prefer to leave my dog with a dog sitter who will interact with and give lots of affection to my dog. Jen is fantastic!

They have a great selection of animal food, toys, treats, supply's. The staff is great. They treat my dog like a king when we walk on in. When I have my hands full of a leash, some toys and treats and I am trying to manage a bag of dog food, someone always comes right over and gives me a hand. My fiance bought a pair of moccasins last time we were in, and the staff also knew their footwear. They helped her dig through the sale rack to find a pair she liked. I myself have worked in another mom and pop store for 10+ years (and I know a thing or two about footwear), they did not give her a run around just to sell a pair of shoes, or try to up-sell her on a more expensive pair. They lady just dug in, and found what we were looking for. At the counter, they gave Oliver a treat while we waited to be rung up. They then help the door open and helped us carry our order out to the car. To recap, great customer service, knowledgeable staff on all products they sell, very very friendly people, great prices on dog food, small local business worth supporting. We are headed there now in fact.

I first met Nikki back in the late 90's when i had 2 cocker spaniels go through her training. They were great dogs because Nikki played a part in their lives. We used her training techniques throughout their 16 & 17 years. My most recent contact with Nikki has been in relation to her latest litter of Vom Evolution puppies as I have been thinking about getting another dog. I completely trust Nikki, her experience and proven results. Her knowledge and experience specifically with working line german shepherd dogs and all dogs in general makes her one of the best trainers and resources in Pennsylvania. You should also know that she has won many awards, titles and competitions through her hard work and dedication to all dogs and the german shepherd breed. I am editing this to add that Nikki's training facility is spotless. It is easily one of the cleanest animal facilities I have ever been to. She takes pride in her work and it shows.
