    Kennel At Hemlock Hill Farm

    Kennel At Hemlock Hill Farm

    (1 review)

    Sharing a recent experience of ours. We have boarded with this facility in the past. Due to a…read morecancer diagnosis and surgery (with a 6 month plus recovery & treatments), as well as my mother passing 5 months later, we did not board here for almost two years. We had scheduled a few times to board, however, for various reasons, had to cancel. The owner also told us to bring our 2 dogs in for boarding once in a while to keep them familiar with her and the kennel. Spending money to board without need seems irresponsible to us. Last week, I left two messages to schedule boarding for two nights. The owner finally called us back, and we were absolutely stunned of the accusation that our dogs gave other dogs kennel cough more than two years ago when we boarded them. She also accused us of altering vet records, which we find grossly unprofessional, slanderous and out of line. Why would anyone alter vet records? This makes no sense. We have owned many dogs in more than 50 years, mostly rescues, and have NEVER had a kennel cough incident, and our dogs have always been vaccinated with rabies and Bordatella/kennel cough. They also do not go to dog parks nor are they around other dogs unless we bring them to the beach, however, still mostly away from our dogs in order to avoid contagious illnesses. We would never board a dog without the kennel cough vaccine, and most kennels require it, however, this kennel prefers you do not get it or do not get it within a week or so before boarding. Our dogs are 10 years old, have been vaccinated for Bordatella every year of their life as all of our dogs have been, and kennel cough can normally not be spread from dogs that have been vaccinated in the past, and newly vaccinated dogs have a very very slim chance of spreading kennel cough after an initial shot (we spoke to a Vet following this disgusting conversation with the owner). There was never any notification from the owner of this supposed kennel cough incident, and frankly, if dogs next to ours came down with kennel cough, WHY DID SHE NOT NOTIFY US THAT A KENNEL COUGH OUTBREAK HAD HAPPENED AT HER KENNEL DURING OUR BOARDING TIMEFRAME? Very irresponsible if that did happen. She never contacted us. Never mentioned this to us after we had made a few scheduled boarding days. We needed to cancel due to cancer treatment complications, and a dying mother. Our experience was that the owner might be unhappy that we did not board with her in two years. We had no reason nor have taken any vacations or time away to board our dogs anywhere. To be falsely accused of this is concerning. Our dogs always came home smelling so badly, usually with urine on them, and they are very clean dogs. I understand kennels are not always the cleanest places, but one person managing the entire kennel might be overwhelming at this point. We are stunned at this accusation and demeanor of someone we entrusted with our dogs (kids).

    Bellevue Stables - Smoking in the barn

    I recently boarded 13 horses at Bellevue Stables in Bow, NH under the management of Evelyn Cutting…read more and I would like to share my experience after my recent loss of one of them for the benefit of others. When I arrived, three horses were in stalls and the rest were in paddocks full-time at this facility and the ones outside weren't many. I provided detailed instructions regarding each of my horse's medications and supplements--everything was clearly labeled and organized in individual containers for the nine horses that required them. After about 3.5 weeks, I discovered that the horses had not been receiving their medications nor supplements as instructed. When I asked about this, the barn manager responsible told me she was overwhelmed by the influx of horses, and at that time they had also hired a new employee to help her when we moved in. This was concerning, as consistent care is essential to equine health. During my four months at the facility, several health issues arose. One horse developed a persistent cough that required extended treatment. Three horses developed ulcers, and two required a month-long course of Gastrogard as any equine person knows the expense of that medication alone. One horse, Merlin, was eventually referred to New England Equine for severe ulcers. On the day of his episode, I was told he was being monitored from a distance through a window not physically checking on him. When I arrived and saw him in person he was showing signs of distress, and was immediately trailered to New England Equine. Another horse, George, experienced a significant health decline. He has Cushing's and requires daily medication, which I later found out was not administered for several weeks. His ACTH and insulin levels rose dramatically during that time, leading to a critical condition. He has since been re-evaluated by a veterinarian, and his prognosis is uncertain. There were also concerns with cleanliness and paddock maintenance. Some paddocks were routinely cleaned, while others were not. Stalls were not always maintained consistently for example leaving the manure by the stall door until the following day and this was observed more than five times, and I observed a pattern of unequal care. There was no consistency on feeding schedule nor turn in or turn out time. When addressed I was told basically it's her way or the highway. Also in observation continuous construction projects that we were made aware of however many are started, and not finished...tack room, wash rack spaces that are half done, and still not usable to boarders. There is also a very strong presence of rodents, and birds throughout the facility. Both could be physically viewed, and also signs such as feces in tack room, grain storage, aisle ways, corner feed dishes. I also believe this could've been a contributing factor to my horses equine health. There were no signs, or effort in the removal, or treatment of the facility to remove such pests. While I understand that caring for many horses is demanding, I believe that with proper staffing and oversight, these issues might have been avoided. I have been in the horse community for over 25 years and have never previously felt compelled to leave a review like this. Unfortunately, this experience led to over $18,000 in veterinary expenses and significant stress for both myself and my animals. I hope this feedback encourages improvements in care and communication moving forward for future boarders, but also cautions the next boarder to be aware of problems that exist within this facility currently.

    Do not take your horse here. These people have zero horse experience, no idea what they're doing,…read moreand don't listen to those who do.
