Canine Culture East

My dogs had an extended stay boarding with Canine Culture. The staff was fantastic. They (Jim) kept in touch during my travels, and gave me peace of mind knowing my dogs were in great hands. When I picked them up, my pups were healthy and happy!Thanks, Canine Culture!!!

I used to love Canine Culture. It wasn't perfect but I know Mary took very good care of my dog Frankie. The business has gone downhill. I have emailed a texted the owner Finnie many times. There are no beds for dogs if the get tired. Outside is awful. No shade for our pups. I have asked for misters and pools to keep the pups cool in this hot weather. Last year I bought 2 pools and misters to hang for the dogs. They were hung very low and dogs tore them up and ruined pools. Who was watching? I dropped off my dog a few weeks ago and as I was leaving the person who was supposed to be with daycare dogs left them alone and went to get lunch. I was livid since the owner only allows one person to be in daycare. This is dangerous. The other day there was no secretary (not unusual) or anyone in grooming. She was ALONE in the building with dogs. What if there was a fight or injury. Who would take dog to vet? I will only bring my dog when Mary is working daycare but I worry about her being alone. Again I have texted and emailed the owner but never received a reply. He does not exhibit love of the dogs. The daycare should cater to the wellbeing and comfort of the dogs. We as owners pay to have our babies well taken care of. Mary does a good job and works very hard. Maybe this review will push the owner to care for the dogs.

We have taken our dogs here since it was operated under the former name, and our Aussies have always had good experiences. The bonus is that, with the most recent change, whatever they are using gives our dogs the SOFTEST coats ever. Very soft and fluffy, and it lasts for about a month. They do really well with both dogs (including our girl, Storm, who is not always the most sociable) and we appreciate their consistency of care. My one quibble is that they can't seem to call us when the pups are ready. We've confirmed the phone number, and they say they call, but no luck so far. So just be prepared to have to call to make sure your dog is ready. No

Employees seldom answer the phone. Rude employees. Too many dogs to properly take care of the animals

They were so good with my elderly dog here. She'd been refused at one of those big chains because she's in decline and they didn't want the liability. So when I called Canine Culture, I made sure to let them know about her condition. Jim calmly assured me their experienced groomers would be able to work with my dog. And he was right. Melissa, with over 30 years experience, came to the big soft couch in the waiting area with her tools in hand to trim my baby's nails. I was able to hold my pup the whole time. After trimming her nails, Melissa used some sort of grinder to get them as short and smooth as possible. She made sure that my elderly, infirm little lady stayed comfortable. For that I'm very grateful. I only wish I'd found this place sooner. It's wonderful to support a small business with experienced pros who practice kindness. I will definitely be recommending them to family for boarding and grooming as well. Oh and the reasonable prices were the cherry on top!

Tayler Franklin and team groomed my two Cavalier King Charles Spaniels today with perfect verbal requests as to what needed to be done. Pups not stressed after visit and in fact they are resting very comfortably. The staff is caring and friendly. This has been my groomer for past two years and highly recommend this establishment.

Terrible groomer who does not listen to what we have to say. I asked him to cut 1 inch of hair and he took the whole coat of our golden doodle. Now my dog has to withstand the winter without his nice hairy coat . When I asked him the reason, he told me that matting of the hair on his legs was the reason for taking the whole coat off. This place keep changing their groomers and my dog could never get used to the groomers and they blame my dog for being handful.I am never setting foot in this place again.

Our first experience at Canine Culture East was wonderful. Samantha did a terrific job styling our scruffy Schnauzer mix. She revealed the inner terrier but retained his charm. Mickey is now sleek, cool and ready for a hot summer. He was very calm after his grooming. Thank you! We'll be back.

My dog got a really great poodle cut- it's done very well and I would highly recommend anyone who has a poodle to go to Canine Culture East. The big problem is that my dog is a SHIH TZU! I was VERY specific about getting a teddy bear face (nope, fully shaved), long and rounded ears (nope- really short and cut straight) and to only do a foot trim (they did a poodle cut with toenails showing) and a hygiene cut (that was good). Contemplating about whether or not I try them again or try another groomer- I'm new to town. I sure wish the groomer would have called if she wasn't clear about my expectations.
