My cranky old dog (15) is a bit Extra for other boarding places (stressed out, not eating, rubbed…read morenose raw, doesn't play well with others, etc.!). Lots of separation anxiety. Then we found Hyline!! She was at Hyline for over a week on the first visit and did fine. No raw nose when we picked her up. She had a private "room" and I paid a little extra for one-on-one attention (tuck-in service!! What!!), and a peanut butter-filled Kong once daily. They sent us photos and updates. She even ate while she was there! Second visit was good, too. She didn't even hang back when it came time to leave her, just went along to her kennel. Pretty surprising, for her! The place is clean and well-kept. They do doggie daycare, too. We appreciated the good service and care for our good old girl!

1) Completely failed to give my dog critical medication for 9 days (after its importance was…read moreemphasized to them at check in). 2) They took my dog to the ER for normal old dog sounds ("authorized" by my emergency contact who believed them there was an emergency- ER did literally nothing, agreeing my dog was fine and did not need x-rays, etc). 3) Uninvited one dog of mine (one of three) to stay again because she has cancer - after years and many, many thousands of dollars worth of stays she was dumped as a client. Yes, her poo would have chemo drugs in it, but it's frankly not that hard to just pick it up. Plenty of dogs are on meds that are excreted in poop. Their operation is a ridiculous cash grab of low lying fruit (easy dogs) using mostly untrained kids to run it. Zero commitment to long term clients. Glad they fired my sweet old girl as I now have my 3 dogs staying somewhere that is actually run by good people that care.

Angela Lenz - the owner of Tails A Wagging - is truly a dog whisperer. I've never met anyone that…read moreunderstands the language of dogs better than she does. She generously shares her knowledge, and helps every dog owner she encounters, whether they are clients, customers, or just someone who has a dog and needs some help and could benefit from everything she knows. Our dog has taken more than 10 classes and every trainer Angela hires shares her outlook on positive reinforcement and the joy that training and bonding brings to both the dog and their human. Tails A Wagging is a safe place for dogs, and the humans that love them. Highly Recommend. All the Paws Up!

My dog finally had her private session a couple weeks ago. The trainer was friendly and came armed…read morewith bucketfuls of fancy treats. The dog reacted positively to the non-stop treat-fest. Unfortunately, she vomited every last crumb a few hours after the trainer left. I got the impression that the trainer was mostly sharing "this is what I do with my dog," instead of coming from a place of knowledge.
