I just wanted to let everyone know that I had an awesome experience at the Everett Banfield Clinic. I have a very large German Shephard who gets extremely stressed coming to the vet. The front desk staff was so understanding they let me bring my dog Bear in from the back and Noel the Assistant spent extra time trying to prepare my dog for his shots. I was very happy with all the staff members the Dr. gave Bear his shots very quickly and we were able to leave and not have to come back.
I beg you please take K9 Korral off your daycare/boarding list.
TL:DR at bottom.
If you're looking for a kennel to take your precious fur baby to, please look elsewhere. This is one of if not the worst kennel/daycare you could ever use. They kick dogs, hit dogs, and constantly and consistently yell profanities at barking dogs. Dogs regularly go overnight without food or water. Injuries on dogs go uncredited for. dogs regularly have diarrhea and eat each others p**p with nothing being done about it. They will p**p and p*e in their kennels and will not get bathed, nor will the kennel be cleaned at that time. They will wait until they have to do it. you thought they treat dogs poorly they treat employees even worse. The employee handbook openly shows illegal business practices such as hitting dogs, not being paid your first week if you leave the job before 90 days, which is illegal in Washington state. And not being paid your final week without putting in two weeks and a resignation letter. Which, believe it or not, is also illegal in Washington state. You will be called a liar by all senior employees. Even with proof for callout. After your first callout or late day they turn on you and start harassing you with no end. George pays to have negative reviews removed on available platforms, and has family and friends lie in reviews to get a better rating. Police dogs are treated poorly as well. If the police knew what they did to their dogs while they're away I would guarantee they would look elsewhere for kennels. I went in to get my fiance's final paychecks yesterday, and was met with immediate hostility even with never meeting these people before. Her training check was refused due to "unpaid internship" which was never disclosed nor is it mentioned in the handbook. I asked for proof of this and George asked for proof that she worked. I believe he is performing tax evasion and will be reporting him to the IRS shortly. They had a dog, have massive amounts of diarrhea and proceeded to claw at the kennel fence and ground until bone was showing on his paws. It wasn't cleaned, taken care of or anything. The dog was picked up that day. I can only imagine what that customer is thinking. He is trying to sell the business and i believe its because he can't keep up this charade much longer.
TL:DR. George runs a terrible business built on lies and harassment. He only hires young vulnerable girls that don't know any better as its usually their first jobs. They abuse dogs. And abuse employees. Don't take your fur babies here. I beg you. Don't believe the positive reviews. Read all the reviews.
How do I keep my cats' teeth clean when he doesn't let you brush them? I have the additive that you add to the water. so I'm doing that....he has a heart murmur so I'm unable to have you guys clean them. I've bought toys that are supposed to help but he won't play with them. I've bought treats specifically for his teeth but he won't eat them. I'm stuck.....
I took both of my dachshunds to banfield in Everett, WA today. First they screw up what shots one was suppose to get. Get that fixed. He was suppose to get 2 vaccines. I was told my female dachshund received 4 vaccines and my Male was suppose to get 2. I get home and get thru the paperwork to see no mention of 2 shots for my Male dog. So I call the clinic. They said they forgot to give them to him and they scheduled an appt for July 4th for him to have it done. No problem. A few hours later I noticed my male dogs face is swelling badly. So I call the clinic and ask them why he would be swelling if they did not give him vaccines. She put me on hold and went and talked to the vet. Low and behold he did have the 2 shots but since I didn't notice it sooner??? (I wasnt suppose to watch him, I was suppose to be watching my female because he didn't "get" any shots remember) that I had to take him to the emergency vet (under my expense) because they were closing soon. How about no. You guys screwed up and told me he didn't get any vaccines and I have to pay for an er visit?? So they told me to rush him down to the clinic and they'd give him a shot for the swelling but they couldn't keep an eye on him after that. I am BEYOND disappointed in this banfeild. Never had a problem in Missouri. I'll be switching clinics. I can't believe they make it out like it's my fault when there was NOTHING to show he got any shots. Never again going back to that clinic.
