This past week, my husband and I boarded our dog with Wagsworth Manor as we adjusted to bringing our infant daughter home. We were excited for the experience for her as we had heard nothing but great things. After picking her up yesterday, I was left heartbroken for our poor dog. I will never send her to this facility again.

We were told when we went to pick up Millie that a manager needed to speak with us. We were informed that Millie had just developed a cough while she was getting a bath. The manager made it seem like it wasn t much of anything. We took Millie home and she has full blown kennel cough. She received the bordetella vaccine and is up to date on all of her shots. Does this mean that there are dogs in the facility who are not vaccinated? We are taking Millie to the vet this afternoon. Not only did we pay close to $500 to board her for five days, we now have this added expense as well. Millie goes to daycare once a week - she will be unable to do that now as she recovers from the kennel cough that she picked up at Wags.

Additionally, Millie wears a Soresto collar. These collars are effective for 8 months and we most recently purchased one in January. When we got home yesterday, her Soresto collar was no longer on her. I m hoping that it was removed during bath time before pick up and that she wasn t left without her flea and tick preventative during her stay. To say that my blood is boiling would be an understatement. Please beware before boarding your dogs at this facility. From our experience, all I can see is negligence all around.
