Me and my boyfriend went on vacation with his family, so we needed to put our dog in a kennel while we were gone. I chose this kennel because of all the awesome reviews I read. We went to go check it out, and the staff was extremely friendly and seemed like they knew what they were talking about. We had her in there for 10 days because the hours for drop off and pick up were really strange. We drove 12 hours down to the Gulf Shores, AL. So driving back, we left at 5am, our scheduled day to pick up was sunday, but we knew we would get back between 4-4:30 saturday, so driving home we called to ask if we could possibly pick her up just 15-30 mins later, and they told us no because they closed at 4. (who closes at 4 on a saturday?) they then proceeded to tell us we had to wait until 2 on sunday (when they open) to pick her up but we would still be charged for that day. They said they don't open until 2 because all the employees are giving dogs baths before they go home, but we weren't getting a bath for Scarlett so we asked if we could pick up earlier. Still no. We walked in at exactly 2, and about 10 other staff come walking through the doors. I thought all the staff were too busy? out of the all the staff working, not a single one stopped and asked anyone that was waiting if they needed help with anything.\r

So after paying a good amount of money (paid for 9 days of play time), we took her home. When we got into the back yard of our house, she just ran and ran and ran, she ran for a straight 3.5 hours, seeming like she never even got played with.\r
Later that night when we went to feed her, she would NOT eat, so we thought maybe she was just too excited to be home. it has been 3 days, and she still will not eat. She had clearly lost weight since we dropped her off, even though we gave them a full bag of her food, which usually lasts about a month and barely had any left, and a full bag of treats, which we didn't get back.\r

the very last thing, she has this toy that is a bone, when we took it out of the bag when we got home, she had poop on it! not only did they not clean up her mess, they left it all over her toy. \r
