New Dog Paradise

New Dog Paradise
Carol and Sonia of Opportunity Barks have become Shadow's newest friends, he just adores them. Shadow does not usually warm up to people quickly as he is a rescued pound-dog with some issues reflecting prior physical abuse and neglect. He immediately loved them both and I new we were off to a great start. Now he is at attention as we approach the kennel, wiggling, wagging and excited to see them again. The peace of mind I have when I leave him in their care is fantastic. He's vacationed with them when I've needed to fly out of town numerous times and each time I'm happy to receive email posts with photos of his daily events. I usually can't leave him with anyone but my closest friends, sometimes far away requiring long drives to deliver him which only adds to my pre-trip errands. Now I have a short drive from downtown Eugene, we are greeted with love, fresh baked treats, and refreshments. I just love what they do and how they do it. They are very experienced with all sorts of animals and they obviously put great effort into providing the best environment possible for dogs in their care. Their new facility shows this, no corners were cut in the construction of this new dog paradise. Huge efforts were made to provide the best environment possible, air conditioning, huge play yard (indoor and outdoor!), shade, grass, spacious kennels, bathing facility, sparkly clean and fresh, and quite inviting with a visitors lounge. I cannot give them enough praise for their level of care and vision in creating a much needed service for dog owners who cannot always travel with their dog. All my friends and family know of them and how happy I am to have found them. I recommend you give them a call and a visit when you need to leave your dog friend behind, even if you have special needs such as insulin injections for diabetes like Shadow does. They take care of it all and they are a joy to visit and chat with upon coming and going. I love them both and really want them to succeed in their dream, now realized and ready for business. Give them a try! You'll be hooked and your dog will love you for the vacation and attention when you can't give it.
