These folks sold us an "8 month" old puppy they claimed was the offspring of 2 dogs from their past…read morerescues. Pretty sure they spade and neuter both as protocol. However, the dog was much older and despite loving our family, was vicious to strangers and, by the behest of local cops, had to eventually be euthanized after severely biting neighborhood children. They lied about age, trauma and lineage. The toll on my family won't go unnoticed. Since then, we'll only adopt from foster families. Not worth worrying about whether or not some angst ridden caretaker kicked the kennel or physically abused an animal. It's a liability people should examine. Now, I'm the happy human of 2 beautiful and kind dogs adopted from loving families. These pups were treated MUCH BETTER as they should (and it shows) Gor now we live with the trauma of LRHS' deception.

Our family recently boarded our dog, Pepper, at the White Mountain Dawg Barn. We were camping at…read moreWhite Lake State Park, which doesn't allow dogs, and we didn't have a lot of options for Pepper (our usual dog babysitters were not available). We didn't have any connections to WMDB, but we took a chance with them and we are happy we did. The facility was spotless, Tony was incredibly knowledgable and supportive, and we felt like Pepper was 100% safe while she was there. We will totally use WMDB again, and we'll recommend them to friends.

Hello, I am writing to report a puppy purchase scam and to…read moredocument the circumstances surrounding a $500 deposit I paid. I initially contacted a breeder advertising dachshund puppies through a website and Facebook page associated with "Mainely Dachshunds." The website and communication appeared professional and knowledgeable about the breed, which led me to believe the breeder was legitimate. I placed a $500 deposit through their website using my Bank of America debit card to reserve a puppy. Shortly afterward, I was told there had been an issue with their website deposit system and was asked to send the deposit again through Venmo. I declined and explained that I would only consider sending another payment once the original deposit had been refunded to my account. They sent photos claiming the refund had been issued on their end, however the refund never appeared in my account. Approximately seven weeks later, I traveled to pick up the puppy as previously arranged. When I was about one hour away from the breeder and approximately 1.5 hours from home, I received a phone call stating that they had an emergency trip and that I would need to send the remaining balance of $3,000 immediately via Venmo. This new payment demand and the requirement to send funds through Venmo had never been mentioned previously. I explained that the situation made me uncomfortable and that I did not feel safe sending additional money under those circumstances. The breeder became very aggressive and stated that we were "not the right family" for the puppy. I attempted to call back to resolve the situation, but I was again asked to immediately send additional money via Venmo. At that point I determined the situation was fraudulent and unsafe, so I turned around and returned home without completing the purchase. I still have all written communication related to this transaction, including emails and messages documenting the deposit, payment requests, and the changing payment instructions. The only information not documented in writing is the verbal phone conversation that occurred while I was driving to pick up the puppy. Because of the sudden change in payment terms, the pressure to send a large payment through Venmo, and the demand for immediate payment due to an "emergency trip," I believe this was a fraudulent operation. I am happy to provide any supporting documentation, screenshots, or correspondence needed.

I recently moved to Maine and contacted Kara's Petcare on the recommendation of my vet. I was so…read moreexcited because it seemed like they would be able to offer daycare for my dogs and some auxiliary training if needed. They also said they did transport to the daycare facility and boarding on occasion. It seemed perfect. I should mention that there are Kara's pet care facilities in Portsmouth, Berwick, and Falmouth. First I was asked to set up a meet and greet with one of their associates at my home so she could meet my pets. It took me many tries to get through many unreturned phone calls, but finally we did set up the meet and greet and that went well. Then I was asked to set up an app and an account before we could actually schedule any dog care. So I set up the app and the account. Then I was asked to drive my dogs to their facility to see if the dogs would "be happy there." So I drove my dogs 25 minutes to the facility. When I got to the facility I was told that they were supposed to stay there for a day assessment and then I should come and pick them up. This was not communicated to me earlier, and I had not budgeted an extra hour of driving back-and-forth. Then they would reschedule the assessment and they would come and pick up my dogs for the day-long assessment. All before any dog care could be scheduled. So, still not on the calendar. So to summarize: you need to go through a long process of scheduling a meet and greet, then you need to have the meet and greet, then you need to sign up for the app, then your dogs have to be assessed to see if they will be happy. I'm just thinking that anyone who's busy enough to need dog care is too busy for this multilayered, multi-step, poorly communicated process where phone calls, texts, and emails are returned only about half the time.

I boarded my dog at the NH location for 5 days. He is a 4 year old lab. He came out and he wasn't himself. I thought he was just tired until I noticed his paws were blood red. I realized he must have been so active on the turf that it caused such painful abrasions on his paw pads he could barely walk. I need to now take him to the vet for some help. I also noticed that he now has an ear infection and his gums are bleeding. I asked for him to be groomed the day I picked him up but the grooming was subpar. I feel like an awful dog mom taking him to a place that barely noticed him limping. My little boy is hurt from this place!

Had an incident at my property that was INITIALLY thought by the fire department to be caused by…read morethe fence but later determined to not be the case. The manager was combative and rude to me when I reached out to them with this information and hung up on me... Dave the owners response to my previous review about this incident was not actually a true account of what was told to me by the Fire Department and my interactions with his office and that's why it was removed... I WAS initially told that they believed the fence may have been the cause. After speaking with Dave who explained it wasn't possible, They changed the cause of the fire to undetermined. Unfortunately, that is not the story Dave gave in his response to my previous review which was removed because what he said wasn't true... His account of my conversation with the Fire Chief is not actually what happened... I WAS INITIALLY told, (by fire professionals) that the fire likely cause was the fence. Dave's account that they CLEARLY told me they didn't know the cause of the fire and just found pieces of the fence was not ACTUALLY what was told me in my email correspondence with the Fire Chief... I am disappointed in the very unprofessional reaction i received from what was a a very stressful situation. I was only going by what i was being told by the professionals... To be yelled at and hung up on by the manager, TWICE and then have the accounts of that incident and what was told to me by the Fire Department be misconstrued in Dave's response to my initial review is dishonest and disappointing...
