Review content:
We adopted a dog that was about 2 years old from an abusive situation. We visited the Canine Club & Spa, explained the situation, and were assured they would treat our dog very well, and we were assured by the pet cam. From the very first daycare day at the Canine Club & Spa, our dog had an odor when we picked him up, and not being familiar with doggy daycares, thought this was how it was. Eventually, our dog contracted kennel cough, and in fact, contracted kennel cough 3 times in the 2 months he was at the Canine Club & Spa. Now, I know you are saying to yourself that the kennel cough vaccine is like the flu shot for humans--they can't catch all the strains. I said the same thing to the vet who, after the 3rd round of kennel cough, asked where my dog was being daycared. I said the Canine Club & Spa and she said she had 4 other dogs from the same daycare in with kennel cough. She said for this kind of thing to be happening, for so many cases and such severe cases, the Canine Club & Spa isn't taking health and hygiene standards seriously that they could be doing. Finally, the vet said she would not take her dog there--that's good enough for me. My dogs last case of kennel cough had him vomitting every 15 minutes for 11 hours, and had he not been a young dog, it most likely would have killed him, according to the vet. He is now at a different daycare, is doing wonderfully, doesn't smell when I pick him up, and the most telling of all, NO KENNEL COUGH EVER for the year he has been there. I also explained to the Canine Club & Spa why I was removing my dog. Your pet is your pet, and I'm sure the choices you make are loving ones for your pet, but I will never take my dog to the Canine Club & Spa again and risk him contracting anything.
