We took our happy, healthy 18 mos old rottweiler to Erdman's for boarding over Thanksgiving. When he got there he was his usual charming self licking the office staff and stopping at each to be pet. His coat was lustrous, his eyes shining and his demeanor confident. When we picked him up he rushed to get out of their, his ears were down, his coat was filthy, his eyes were sullen, he had two hotspots on his bum, and he looked weak. We took him outside to go to the bathroom and it was like he had been holding it for days. He was dehydrated, exhausted and sick. After we took him home he drank a lot of water and spent the rest of the last day and a half resting. He has been feeling so bad that he doesn't even lift up his head when we enter the room, whereas usually he jumps up. He hasn't touched his food, so we are giving him rice and chicken until he feels better. Whenever we have boarded him in the past, he is always happy to come home, but he has never been treated so badly.\r
Needless to say we are absolutely livid about the way our dog was treated, he was completely neglected and now he is sick. Never go there, it is not worth the cheap prices- you get what you pay for!
Cons: Staff neglected my dog for 3 days, he entered healthy and came home sick!
