injured dog and smelled of urine...
2 Star Rating: Below Average

My partner and I have a rescue dog and we wanted to be sure our dog was in good hands. We have been taking him to Metro dog for the past year and a half and I have noticed that he ALWAYS comes home smelling of Urine, even after he has been given a bath. The past few times we have taken him there for all day stays he has come home with a corneal abrasion and last night he was acting strange after all day stay. We noticed when we touched his right ear he would wine and pull away. We called Metro dog to ask if they noticed anything or if another dog had bitten our dog and they said everything was fine and they didn't see anything. After a closer examination of his ear we found that it was very bloody and there was a large wound on his ear. I feel the employees are very friendly and genuinely care about dogs, but perhaps Metro dog needs to reconsider the number of the dogs they take in each day, if they cannot effectively monitor every dog and miss something as big as a dog bite to the ear. Due to injuries and concern about the cleanliness we have decided to no longer use Metro Dog for day care.

Editor's Review

Dog day care and boarding. Boarded pets stay in kennels or crates at night and participate in daytime play groups.  See the full editorial review.

Insider Tips

Know Before You Go

Dogs must participate in a free trial day where they can spend some time to getting to know them. This consists of at least 4 hours of weekday daycare when they can make behavioral observations and determine if the dog will be happy with the group setting. Please schedule a trial day in advance as they have limited space per day.
