My 18lb dog was injured at the facility requiring a vet to sedate and surgically remove a 1/4 inch piece of wood from his chest. I called the owner (TRAVIS HESS) 9 times over the course of a month. He refused to speak with me let alone assist with the vet bill. His final response "whatever, you signed a waiver"

TICKS TICKS TICKS!!!! My dog stayed at Camp Salty Dog for one week last year and became INFESTED WITH TICKS. He had an allergic reaction to the tick bites and was broken out in bumps, rash and pustules over his entire body. Furthermore, when I immediately took him to the Vet's office the day after picking him up from Salty Dog, my dog COWERED to the staff, shook and attempted to hide. He has been going to that Vet for years. He still has issues now when going to the Vet. It took him weeks to recover from most of whatever was done to him at that hole which traumatized him. I could not believe the condition he was in physically and emotionally. MY DOG WAS NEGLECTED AND BECAME INFESTED WITH TICKS, at the very LEAST, while in the "care" of Camp Salty Dog. THE OWNER DENIED any responsibility and refused compensation for the vet costs - and following research online I discovered others had previously written reviews warning about ticks and stated the owner also denied that the dogs got them

***ATTENTION!!!*** Don't EVER take your dogs (or any pet) to Camp Salty Dog on 9th Avenue North and 17th Street North in St. Petersburg!! We dropped our two chocolate labs there Thursday morning with the exact amount of food to last them until we picked them up Sunday afternoon only to pick them up with the same amount! I found their bag with food in it under the tv in the main office, the kid working had no idea where it was, but insisted that they ate. A man that worked there even wrote the feeding instructions on the cup! One of them didn't get ANY of the seizure medicine we left for him either, also with exact instructions! My dogs have not been acting the same since bringing them home... Not eating, very lethargic, and can't get enough water. If you care about your pets at all, PLEASE do not bring them here and let everyone with dogs know what a horrible place this is!
