Drove an hour for a play date with my dog and a pup from here. My dog is more hyper than most but…read morehad never had trouble with people or other animals. The guy who brought the pup to meet my dog didn't even allow them more than 10 seconds to meet before he did not allow us to adopt. I understand that we have to look out for all dogs safety, but my dog didn't even bark like plenty of the other dogs around. The workers at labs and more seemed really pretentious towards my family and dog which is really upsetting when all we are trying to do is rescue a pup that needs a home. I would recommend to look elsewhere if you are looking for a new pup. UPDATE: So since we were treated so unfairly by Labs and More we ended up finding a pup from an independent seller. It was not ideal nor our first choice, but Labs and More and other shelters make it unnecessarily difficult to adopt a pup. Again, I brought my kids and dog an hour to meet a pup and the worker took 1 look at our dog and made up his mind before even giving our dog a chance. For a shelter whose workers are supposed to be "dog people", they are pretty judgmental and rude for no reason. Here is a pic of our dog and new pup an hour after bringing the pup home. They are best buds and our dog took the transition very well. Why would I drive an hour with my dog if I had even the slightest thought that my dog would harm another? I could have easily said I didn't have a dog and adopted, but we tried doing these the right way and were turned away by rude workers. If you already own a dog, don't bother with this unwelcoming shelter.

They are careful to make good matches for the dogs and the people so everyone is benefitted.

Our initial meet and greet felt like chatting with an equally dog obsessed friend. They are so sweet and easy to communicate with. My dog comes home happy and tired and always has the best time! They send updates and pics which is so appreciated because I'm pretty much obsessed with my pup. So grateful to Down To Earth Dogs for making my life a little easier and my pups life more fun!

Emily and Bella are super kind, patient, and knowledgeable about dogs and their personalities. My dog started off super shy and needed some additional socialization and he loves getting dropped off to play and I've seen a huge improvement with him. They send me pic updates throughout the day and I'm very comfortable leaving him with them knowing he will be taken care of. The facility is clean and safe, and Harley always comes home so tired which is great. Highly recommend them!!

I was introduced to Colleen in 2012 and was beyond impressed with the training she provided my Rottweiler puppy. Last year I got another Rottweiler puppy and Colleen was the first call I made; there isn't anyone else I would trust with training my dog! Thank you, Colleen, for the confidence you've instilled in me knowing that I can take Benz anywhere and he'll be so well behaved that the restaurant staff doesn't notice him laying next to me! You're the best!

Call Colleen her service would make a fantastic gift for anyone with previous fur babies! Thank you again Colleen.

I have been a longtime client and trusted Markim Pet Resort with my dog for quite a while,…read moreincluding prepaying thousands of dollars for daycare services. Over the past few months, I noticed significant staff turnover and a change in the overall environment. My dog no longer seemed excited to attend, which raised concerns for me as an owner. When I expressed those concerns to the person now overseeing dog care, the interaction became uncomfortable and defensive. Shortly after, I received a call from the office manager telling me to pick up my dog and that we were no longer welcome back. As a paying longtime customer, I found the handling of the situation extremely disappointing and unprofessional. Pet owners should be able to ask questions or express concerns about their dog's well-being without fear of being dismissed as a client. I truly loved this place at one time, which makes this experience even more upsetting.

After talking with a counselor their recommendation was "Humane Euthanasia" OMG!!!
