DCAH does provide good service but I did not enjoy coming into all the noise from the dogs being boarded there. Every time I'd take my dog in for medical care they would take my dog in the back, which I am normally fine with. I'm not ok with the dogs being boarded at DCAH running loose in the back halls. It is extremely loud and my dog is growling at the sound of the dogs the entire time. My dog is already terrified to be at the vet and when they take him to the back he is greeted by a bunch of unfamiliar dogs and this is a sure way to start a fight. This actually almost happened with my dog and it was really upsetting for me as well as my dog. I will give them credit in that they ask if your dog is good with other dogs before they take them back for care, but my dog shouldn't have to go through additional stress of strange dogs sniffing him at the vet. Personally, I feel that it is unprofessional and it's just not a good fit for me and my dog. I think it's great that they take such good care of the dogs being boarded but I no longer bring my dog here for treatment because I feel the dogs that are being boarded should be in a contained area away from the veterinary clients. So great for boarding and grooming (my parents love their grooming) but not great fit for me and my animals.
