While in their care my little dog broke his leg,...

Will not be going back We took my older dog there, and she seemed to like it. Then, we got a new puppy & stopped taking her until he was about 6 mos old. He got very ill and even had to be hospitalized overnight. It sounds like they waited longer than they should have to call me and/or take him to the vet next door. He has not had such an episode before or since, and he was kenneled with his 'sister' when it...

They charged me for all 4 kennels but clearly the dogs were not...

The last visit she had her tail tucked and ran for the front door to escape with...

For 2008, Taurus Metric has LOST its luster. We used Taurus several times this year for week-long vacations and, each time, one of our do...
