YOU GUYS DON'T EVEN ANSWER YOUR PHONES. I have been bringing my 2 year old blu for 8 weeks. I…read moredecided to board him this weekend. Upon pickup the staff wasn't friendly and never had been at pickup or drop off. I ask several times how things went and typical response is oh you didn't get a call so everything was well. The receptionist are young, inexperienced and typically don't have any answers to questions about your pet. We have never been offered a tour and offered a bath after a weekend. When my boy blu came out today at pickup he was timid, scared, full of dried pee, face down, not excited and depressed. Upon arriving at home he has been acting strangely and not the upbeat dog that we are accustomed too. I honestly believe that your pup sits in a kennel more often then not. I'm more upset because he was covered in dried urine so I assumed he's kennel wasn't cleaned. He looked terrible and don't understand why. As a facility that is ran by vets it sure needs improvement. They have been under construction and the lobby looks cold, dark and quiet. I've asked several times how many dogs are here today and usually about 10. I believe you need to visit them and see what you can improve. You're not giving or being with the pets like they are. I have a feeling they go out for a small period of time and kenneled the rest. I feel like pets are treated not the way they should be. Blu's nose was all red and nails all beat up so that indicates he's in his kennel way too long. Your competitors have warm and friendly almost home rooms to sleep. If you had this your dog wouldn't be covered in dry pee. Couple things to help improve: 1.Act like the front staff knows and cares about your pet 2. Offer a bath after boarding for more then a couple days 3. Offer a tour to new clients especially the first day of drop off. It takes a few minutes 4. Train tour front desk to be friendly because it seems like things are always an inconvenience 5. Visit your local competition. There is a reason why you have such a big place and not many dogs per day 6. Train your staff on upgrades asking for a bath nails etc. 7. Remove asking for a tip on your credit card machine because at this point I don't know why anyone would tip. 8. Introduce a vet to your clients. 9. Spend more time with the pets instead of keeping them in a kennel for most of their time. 10. Make some immediate changes because your business won't survive if this how your business is ran. There is several reviews similar to mine so I can't imagine we aren't all saying the truth. We have 2 more days left to return and would rather forego the money and go elsewhere. I also emailed in to your only email so maybe I'll get a response. I'm so sad for our boy right now. I would highly recommend any new client to pay attention to your pet and consider going elsewhere because there is much better places for the same price. I hope you can use my review to improve. Even though your under construction 2 months in it really turned us off as well. I won't be returning to your facility for anything in the future. I've called over 20 times today on 05/16 and they won't even answer their phone. It's very sad. Update: The manager has called me several days in a row to check in on blu. In the mean time there is one current and former client that have reached out to me. The current client says that their dog pees in the house often and is most likely being in a kennel. The previous client indicates they don't come back because their dog has been traumatized as well. I'm not the only client that has indicated concerns to this daycare. I also contacted the owner of the daycare in PA twice and left messages and email and not one return phone call. The experiences at this dog daycare are traumatizing to pets. Also, the company has the tenacity to call other businesses about my review. This is a low blow to me personally as that is unfair business practices. Look at yourself and see how you can improve your business. All clients go elsewhere.

We have a rescue pup who missed out on a lot of key socialization before we adopted him and had…read moresome security issues with other dogs. I talked to a lot of different day cares in town and most of them said, "Sorry, day care probably just won't work for your dog." Since he's still a puppy, I was not willing to give up so easily on getting him socialization and play with other dogs. Dog Haus University said they had worked with tons of dogs just like ours, and that they pride themselves on not just giving dogs a place to play, but teaching them how to play and interact with other dogs. We are SO glad we brought our dog here and SO thankful for the effort they put into helping dogs that other day cares won't work with. Our dog loves going to day care and is getting more and more confident around other dogs outside of day care. He used to have an issue with growling at any dog who tried to approach him, and between some training and his time at day care, that has stopped and he is beginning to even act interested in being friends with other dogs! On top of that, they're super friendly and went above and beyond to get our pup into more days on their schedule. Couldn't recommend them more!

Our dog was a patient at Pineview Animal Hospital for over 12 years. Recently, she experienced a…read moresudden and severe neurological decline and became completely unable to walk. Given her age and a probable brain stem tumor diagnosis, I contacted the hospital specifically requesting to speak directly with her veterinarian to discuss what was happening and to problem-solve next steps, including prognosis and quality-of-life considerations. I was unable to speak with a veterinarian. After multiple calls and detailed explanations to reception staff, the only guidance relayed to me was to take her to the emergency room, with no further discussion, reassessment, or quality-of-life conversation. When I asked why, I was told the practice was "a clinic, not a hospital," which was confusing given the hospital designation and our long-standing relationship. Because I could not have a direct conversation with the veterinarian, we sought a second opinion. Under the new veterinarian's care, our dog's diagnosis and medications were completely reassessed and contradicted, and she has shown significant improvement in a very short period of time. We were very close to making an irreversible end-of-life decision based on indirect communication and limited engagement. For a senior dog in acute crisis and a family seeking guidance, we expected more thoughtful involvement and direct communication. I hope the practice reflects on how situations like this are handled in the future.

Do not take your beloved pet here…read more Our family had a wonderful experience for 12 years with our first dog under the ownership of Dr. Laura Meffert and Dr. Julie James. Based on this wonderful past experience we brought our newest furry family member to Pineview. However our recent experiences have left us infuriated at the treatment of our dog and do NOT recommend brining your pets to them. Under the new management (a corporation called Mission Veterinary Partners), the practice no longer allows you to sit in during the appointment with your dog. Which has led to 2 major concerns as we have not been able to observe what is actually being done during the visit. First concern, after having another dentist look over our dogs teeth he was shocked at what he saw had been missed--he explained that it should have been caught at our dogs 6 month appointment. What was missed will lead to periodontal disease and therefore will require expensive work as our dog is now over a year old. Second concern is that not once, but 3 times our dog became incredibly ill after spending the night at the kennel. Each time we have followed up we have received vague and unhelpful answers as to what could have happened during their stay. Most recently andobject appeared in our dogs stool despite having given clear instructions that nothing should be left in their kennel. This led to a visit to the emergency room. A third minor annoyance was to learn that despite being told and paying for our dogs nails to be trimmed, they were in fact not as was pointed out by the trainer we went to shortly after the appointment at Pineview. After reaching out to management first and receiving no acknowledgment of wrongdoing we have decided to take our dog somewhere we can trust. And based on these experiences feel strongly to leave this review.

We first encountered them when we took Finn [6 yo] to a class for Reactive Dogs. We chose this class because our Labs are over the top crazy friendly when meeting people. We met Deb Crawley. Deb applies the Dog Den principles to everything she does - Calm, Non-reactive, rational, and sensible with lots of love. We applied what we learned in class to both dogs and walking them is now so enjoyable. We recently did a one-on-one session with Deb at our home because we wanted to work on some calming behaviors when someone entered our home. We met with Deb in early November and have been applying her methods and advice for the past 6 weeks -- and are seeing great results!! The boys are still crazy Labs but they now 'pause' and consider what we are asking of them when we have someone else in the home. Thank you Deb Crawley. We're going to keep working on this!!

We requested to delay class 2, our pup was not ready and thought it best for him and the rest of class. Requested to reschedule for a later class and was told it would be at full price. No credit for any of the money to apply to future classes. Expensive and disappointing. They ask for flexibility to meet their needs, but not flexible in return. Spoke with them about this. No change. Please make sure you can live with this when considering your needs. If your pup is ill, behind, or life interupts, it will be at your expense, literally.

Dog's Best Friend Training is a life saver! It was about 10 or 11 years ago that I brought one of…read moremy Jack Russell Terriers, Karrera, to Dog's Best Friend Training. Specifically, to the Reliable Recall Class. This is because, Karrera, would completely blow you off when you called her to come. I can not tell you how many times she ran across the farmer's field whether it was corn or soybeans. This was after excavating her way out of the fenced in yard. I finally said to my other half. We need HELP! I contacted Dog's Best Friend and worked with Chelse in the Reliable Recall Class 1. Karrera did well with this class however, we felt that we should enroll her in the class, again, so we did. She was successful after the second time around and then, the Reliable Recall Class 2 came along. So, we enrolled her in that class. She did well. Fast forward several years later. I took Karrera hunting in our backyard in the month of August so, the corn was tall. She got to the point in hunting that she got frustrated and took off into the corn field. I thought to myself, I am never going to see her again! And at that moment I remembered to whistle 3 times. Well, guess who showed up at the front door? YES! KARRERA! Now fast forward, again, Karrera is going to be 13 years old on November 1, 2025. I took her hunting in Indiana. I had on me a treat pouch with cooked Lamb (this is something that our dogs only get when we are at shows or hunting). I called her, she came, I treated! She got to her first sett (hole in the ground) and I took her off her leash. When I wanted her to come to me, I would whistle 3 times, she came, I treated. She was off leash running smelling and being a dog. Yes, I was still nervous about her being off leash but, this Reliable Recall Class is worth it's weight in Gold! If there is any class that I would recommend to any one it will be this one! Thank you, Dog's Best Friend and Chelse for helping me and Karrera. With that said, I am also a breeder of Jack Russell Terriers and I start doing a whistle recall as soon as when the puppies are 3-4 weeks old. This way they go home with a basic recall at 10 weeks. People are really impressed when they come pick up their puppy and they are already coming to them on a basic whistle.
