This is a very important announcement about the dog boarding facility called Pawfection Connection, also known as Play And Stay Inn, in Clermont Florida located off 27. I just had to put in my resignation effective immediately because this facility went against almost everything I believed to be right when it comes to caring for animals. It started with the dishonesty towards the clients. Liz (The manager) would be dishonest to the guest, saying that the dogs bedding that the customers would bring in with them to be used for their dogs have been washed when truthfully we never even used their bedding. When I asked her why we do not use their own belongings, she told me because its too much of a hassle to keep in track of every pets belongings. Pawfection Connection would just place their bedding next to the pets food on the shelves next to the toys and other items provided by the pet owners. Shannon (A coworker of mine) believes the pet owners do not know how to feed there own dogs and goes against the feeding instructions put in place by the owner. One day at work, I saw Kyle (Another coworker of mine) discipline a dog. I know what you're thinking... You're either thinking (1) A boarding facility doesn't have the right to physically discipline someone else's pet unless they are told to do training or (2) There's absolutely nothing wrong with disciplining animals. Well, when Kyle physically threw a cocker spaniel down three stairs onto the concrete floor of the "Play Park" or when a baby 10 lb dog was pinned to the floor by the neck and Kyle consecutively spanked the dog, I knew that this facility was messed up. I made it clear to Liz, all she said was to be NICE to Kyle because he is under alot of stress. This facility is a horrible facility and coming from someone that used to work their, I DO NOT recommend sending your dog there. This facility doesn't even have a real play yard for the dogs, all they have is concrete. This facility doesn't even have a poop scoop to clean up the poop (how unprofessional). What boarding facility would tolerate any employee physically disciplining the dogs? What boarding facility lies to the guest and says they used AND washed their belongings when they didn't even use them! Everything I have said is the truth about Pawfection Connection/Play And Stay Inn.

Please sign this petition if you ever have had a bad experience at Pawfection Connection/Play And Stay Inn to stop the animal cruelty and lies and to up their boarding standards as a professional facility.
