Hi Peg & Kari,
If I haven't already mentioned, I love having our
dogs at Dog Tired Daycare. Your staff is
very friendly, I look forward to
dropping off and picking up the dogs just as much as they
love being there!
Thanks for all the loving care you guys provide for them during the day
while we
are at work and the kids are at school. I couldn't be happier with the service
you provide!
Thanks,
Raenette Yangson

Kari, Peg, Jessica and Staff,
I can’t thank you enough. Hailey and Riley get into something about once a month
now that
they’ve figured out how to sneak into cabinets and the pantry. Every time
we think we’ve
dog-proofed better than imaginable, they prove us wrong. If it wasn’t
a doggy daycare day they
might not have made it, really. I had no idea how much
chocolate they ate. The wrappers were
not a good indicator (they ate most of those
too). I would have been grateful if you called me
when Riley threw up, but you called
before that. You called as soon as you noticed something
was different.
I was able to get the dogs home and induce vomiting right away. Hailey puked for
about 2
minutes straight, right down to the bile. Riley fought it like a trooper.
Unfortunately that
wasn’t the type fighting I needed. With some coaxing he eventually
threw up 3-4 times more,
pure chocolate, then he started shaking and wouldn’t lift up
his head even though he was
standing. That’s when I knew he was more than just
sick and I lost it. I called the vet in
tears and they had me bring him in right away.
They induced vomiting again, fed him charcoal
and put him on an IV for about 4
hours. When he came out at 7, he was as good as new (well he
thought he was,
bounding around like a puppy).
I still can’t believe how much chocolate came out of him. Like I said if it wasn’t a
doggie
daycare day, I may have come home at 5 and been devastated. Thank you
so much for taking such
good care of my babies. I would have been crushed if
something happened to them. I know you
understand how much someone can
love their dogs. Those two really are our children. Please
thank Jessica for noticing
that Riley was bloated and drinking too much water. You all are so
caring, it means
the world to me. I’m so so so so so sorry I dropped my sick dogs off and they
made
a mess. Next time they get into something I won’t leave them for you to take care of.
Josh is staying home with Hailey and Riley today to keep an eye on them and make
sure they
continue on to a full recovery, which the vet indicated he expected. He said
that since Riley
was so lethargic and his heart rate was so high, I’m lucky we caught
it so quickly. And by
lucky, I really know that means lucky to have Dog Tired around
who love my dogs so much.

Dear Kari,
I don't think Dog
Tired has any reason to feel that their loyal parents will have
any complaint with the new rates.
I know I am new to your parent group - but
I have experienced other daycare
facilities with my
girls and there is no comparison.
You offer excellence that is well worth paying
for.
Thank you again

Dear Kari,
We made it safely
to Utah. The beagles do miss you all. I can tell. They hate for
us to leave them at all and
have resorted to baying (lots) when we do. If ever you
consider opening a shop
here, you've got
three beagles on the waiting list!
Hugs,
Robin & Gary Badger

Dear Kari,
Your Dog Tired
Doggie Daycare Center has been such an unexpected miracle for
me and my dogs.
I have had some
health challenges in the past few years. My one worry has been
what might happen to Aurora &
Frazier if something happened to me. Aurora would
be able to find a home easily.
Frazier is a very complicated sophisticated complex
dear and could be
misunderstood. For him not to have
a good home because I did not
know how to train him well would have been such a tragedy.
He and Aurora deserve the
best. Being "socialized" at your daycare center has been such a
blessing. Both dogs
are much happier, more at ease, bark less and are more
confident on a
deeper level.
How you did all that I do not know. You transformed my
dears when I could not.
And
Frazier is now "adoptable" and I do not have to worry.
You have created
the most wonderful experience for many species to experience
growth and healing and love.
Thank you. You are a magnificent Soul.
Always,
Karen

Kari,
I always thought
the idea of "Doggie Daycare" as a ridiculous extravagance invented
by slightly demented dog owners
whose dogs were substitutes for children. I MUST
ADMIT I WAS WRONG and apologize
profusely to all those caring pet owners that I
slandered in my mind.
The reason for my
change in attitude is a sweet rescue pug named Bubba. I describe
Bubba as the most expensive
"Free" dog on the planet. Bubba came to me with issues:
toilet
training issues, abandonment issues,
separation anxiety, the list can go on and on.
I had custody of
Bubba for a couple of months and was working through his issues with
limited
success. His problems always
seemed to be exacerbated when I was at work or
could not keep him with me. I was at my wits
end until I found doggie daycare.
The staff at Dog
Tired Doggie Daycare has been wonderful. They have helped Bubba to
resolve
many of his issues and have
shown great consideration for me. If I go to work
then Bubba goes to
daycare. I know he is safe and
happy.
Thank you to all
the staff at DOG TIRED for making Bubba's world a happier place, for
helping him
to have the confidence to move
forward and become the Zen dog he was always
meant to be.
Sincerely,
Robin Cantando

Kari,
I am lucky enough
to have living with me a 9-year old Border Collie named Spice. He
and I
have shared many joys, but also MANY
woes that we need not go into detail about,
suffice it to say, that without the
ladies at DOG TIRED, Spice
and I many not be together
today. We have been to many daycares in
Anchorage and have found, to our
mutual delight, that not only does your facility suit our mutual needs (his: no
grooming noises,
and an understanding staff
and mine: close to work and most importantly
HE IS SO HAPPY THERE!
Fondly,
Susan Luetters

Dear Kari,
I was delighted to
hear you opened a doggie daycare facility in Anchorage. With your animal
care background and public
relations skills there is no doubt this will be a successful venture.
I look forward to
utilizing your services for my own dog, Louis Vuitton, "the most amazing
poodle". I also feel confident in
recommending other utilize doggy daycare for their canine companions. It
has been shown to be a positive
experience for both dog and owner alike.

Dr. Myra Wilson
