The Dog House

"The Dog House you should be ashamed of your care for animals. I have never been more disappointed in a business and disgusted in someone that claims to specialize in the care of dogs. Care. Ha. I dropped my dog off with you to expect he would be cared for. When in fact it was the furthest thing from care. There is absolutely no good reason why when I pick up my dog you tell me he is covered in feces and he was too timid for you to do anything about it. The biggest crock of bull I have ever heard. Then you further go on to tell me at pick up that not only was there feces in his kennel during his stay but you claim he spilled his water and it mixed with the feces and he was standing in “a swamp” and again didn’t do anything about it. First, that dog is OBSESSED with water. I doubt he tipped it, and if he did he would have licked it up. I do however wager based on his awful smell that what caused the “swamp” as you can call it was piss, mixed with the feces. He came out soaked and had poop all over his hind quarters. I was then told he will most definitely need to be in the pick up part of the truck vs in the cab due to his condition. I’m so angry at the straight up neglect and actual animal abuse my dog faced! You had THREE emergency contact numbers you could have called any one of us if he was THAT distraught and any one of us would have dropped anything to make sure he was picked up. What you left him in is deplorable. I couldn’t even greet and love on my dog when he came out because when I touched him he was soaked. I paid the full amount and I left without a scene because you had a line of people waiting to get their babies. I only hope you did better for them. I left your establishment and drove directly to the dog wash, because unlike you and your employees, I realize no dog deserves that and I will take care of it. I will never recommend your business to anyone. If I hear of someone wanting to take their dog to your establishment I will share my experience. I will always advocate for these animals who can not speak for themselves. If he could talk he would have asked you to just pick up the phone and call one of us. But you ignored that. Shame on you. I feel guilty for leaving our loved one in your neglectful hands. Whoever worked this weekend should not be in this industry and you should be ashamed of your business. Do better. These helpless beings deserve better."

"The Dog House is the best place for dog boarding and daycare in the Appleton area. (This is the third place we have tried.) The staff is so friendly and truly care about the dogs. They are well organized with a great system and offer a variety of services and products. The communication about how your pet is doing is great. I was a bit nervous leaving my precious dog and they respected my hesitation, put me at ease, put up with all my questions and the occasional phone call to check-in. We are already booked at the Dog House for our next travel plans. We have a 12 year old Chocolate Lab."

"It was SOOOO fun seeing all the dogs learning trick and just being so happy. The store there was wonderful too and the things i looked at from there are well sourced with good ingredients. I recommend this place, as this place is also where many wonderful pets who need homes can be adopted. I just got my bunny Juniper there 1 week ago today and shes settling in well, already completely potty trained and everything. They do a good job at keeping it clean, and I recommend this place to anyone who need a loving and responsible pet sitter and trainer."

"Rambo loves everyone at the Dog House. He has been going there since he was 6 months old (now he's 6 1/2 years old). Never had a bad experience!"

"I love this place! There's a great selection on toys and food, and the dog treats and doggy froyo are adorable and fair-priced. We took our dog, Harley, and she loved the froyo and the pool. The staff is friendly and it is easy to get in and out quickly."
