I am not happy with the care my 2 dogs received at this establishment. For starters it feels like…read morean animal shelter, all the dogs are going crazy and it's built with chain link and concrete. The sleeping area is quite small, it barely fits a large bed from Costco and the run is also quite short. They do take them out supposedly 2-3 times a day and let them run around in an enclosed yard. But I have a feeling that besides feedings, the walk out to the yard is the only time they are interacting with the staff although I can't say that for sure. I left things for my dogs to chew on to lessen the stress a little but they were never given to them. I sent extra wet food along with their dry food to ensure they would eat but since they hadn't eaten what was put into their bowls previously the staff decided not to keep adding food into the bowls. One of my dogs was starving when he got home and ate double what he normally does. I feel because this is a place to board your dogs that they should be given extra attention in order to make sure they are fed, exercised and comfortable, this clearly did not happen at this kennel. My dogs are very quiet and rarely bark. When I picked them up they were very anxious and stressed. The owner did call me back even though I left a message saying I was very unhappy. He apologized saying that giving the dogs the chew toys had slipped his mind. I don' t feel that this is a good excuse given that this is their job. If you want to save a few dollars and don't care how your dogs are doing while you are away then take them to this kennel, if you do then stay away and pay a little more for your peace of mind and your dogs well being.

This breeder is a gift from G-d! I have had 5 deeply loved dogs over the years bred by Kristy…read more I met Kristy many years ago when I took my beloved Shih Tzu Daisy to her for grooming. BTW...She was and still is the absolute best small breed groomer in the Lower Mainland. Anyways, at the time we met back in the early 90's, she was just starting out as a Yorkie Breeder, and her goal was to be among the best Yorkshire Terrier show quality Breeders in North America. She researched tirelessly, she did everything right in terms of being a bonafide Breeder, (not a backyard Breeder) and went to extreme financial lengths, and still does, to show her dogs in the best shows all over the world. Only a Breeder of Champions can develop a reputation as a serious champion show Breeder of exceptional quality dogs among other show Breeders, and the dog show world is extremely difficult to penetrate in terms of being taken seriously and regarded as a credible show breeder. It takes years and years of dedication, effort, incredible hard work and extreme amounts of money. However, Kristy understood that without that reputation and acceptance, she would be nothing more than a backyard breeder, and that was out of the question. She maintained a busy grooming business 7 days a week, in order to fund her HUGE expenses, which include outrageously high veterinary bills, show expenses, handler costs, supplies etc etc., and on top of that, she regularly rescues dogs from bad breeders, most with serious genetic health issues. So, for those who balk at the high cost of a show quality puppy, and think that all Breeders are "in it for the money", WRONG! A backyard Breeder is in it for the money, Kristy is in it for the love, dedication, devotion and preservation of the breeds she is involved with. You know, many small dog breeds need cesarian sections to give birth, and the cost of that is outrageous! A simple spay costs $1500 now, so trust me, the $4,000 price for a show quality Yorkie, for example may sound high to those who don't understand the true cost of quality breeding, but after all the vet checks, shots, Stud fees, supplies, CKC admin costs, (papers etc.) trust me, the profit margin is borderline "loss" when all is said and done. All of Kristy's puppies are well cared for in her home, and are even paper trained before leaving. I leave you with this...Without people like Kristy, those breeds would be extinct due to genetic damage and pain and suffering caused by backyard breeders.

*WARNING - BEFORE PUTTING IN A DEPOSIT WITH KRISTY FOR A PUPPY.*…read more She insists on a nonrefundable $500 deposit, and she means it under *ALL* circumstances. We waited 6 months on her waiting list, only to find out that 2 litters of puppies had died! Due to the highly unusual circumstance, and some doubts about the health of the dogs, we asked for our deposit back. She refused and told us to wait for the next litter (which would have been 9 months). We didn't even know how many puppies died under her supervision, or how they died! We decided she was unreliable, since we could not be sure the next litter would even survive. We searched for other breeders and even got a puppy from one, Kristy still refused to give us the $500 back. She is also difficult to communicate with, and said I was "threatening" and "blackmailing" her for saying I was going to write a negative review. She will probably reply to this review trying to play the victim, even though she's the one who's $500 richer. Save your time and money, she's not worth the stress, there are plenty of reliable breeders out there who will refund your deposit if anything happens to the puppy that they are selling you.

I have only ever owned GSD'S my entire life and I thought I knew and understood the breed. After…read morerepeated heartbreak of losing dogs only after 6 or seven years, I cast a wide net in search of a better breeder. I looked across the US and stumbled upon a breeder just two states away (who bred a particular type of shepherd I was not looking for) that suggested I look to Tracy Bullinger. It was the best advice, ever. Tracy Bullinger is the quintessential breeder who honors the breed and it's origins and puts her dogs well being before business. She defines the German devotion to excellence by wisely breeding to create healthy pups with solid structure, strong temperaments impressive longevity. Bullinger Shepherds is a game changer for the average GSD owner. I have been richly blessed by seven Bullingers and my brother has had three. I am forever grateful for the commitment to excellence that Tracy Bullinger puts in to her dogs. The happiness that these dogs have brought to our lives is immeasurable.

After a little struggle I turned to Dayana at Relopet International. From the first phone call, I felt at ease because Dayana is very knowledgeable, patient and kind. She was well read into the intricate details and fast changing laws that govern pet travel. She was clear and easy to reach anytime I had questions about the process. She kept me informed and planned each step with precision and care. I could not have gotten my Mable to Australia without Dayana and Relopet. If I had to do it all over again, I would certainly go with Relopet International. The whole process was easy (for me haha) and successful. Thank you Relopet for your professionalism and care for my Mable's wellbeing during travel. You guys Rock!!
