There is no reason to have your dogs out at games without shoes, where the ground is scorching, the workers/fans are overheating so bad they’re puking and having to sit on “cooling buses”, and your workers are yanking these dogs around to work. I don’t care if they “get an hour break” it’s too hot to have them out in this Florida heat. And did you just pick dark colored Labradors for aesthetic??? I’ve literally seen dogs at two games dragging their feet, licking wet spots off the ground, with bright red tongues being jerked around by your employees to “work” Maybe train them on when to recognize a dog overheating.

As many have mentioned, this company has well known issues with allowing the handlers to keep their dogs. But that’s not even the worst of it, they have such horrible management that the employee turnover is insane and the staffing is so short that they force employees to work 12+ hour days for weeks on end with no days off. Their compensation is to throw in a few more dollars per hour at the expense of the handler and dogs physical and psychological well being. Let’s not even get into the safety issues of a handler and dog being so exhausted considering the nature of the job. Oh and a $250 penalty for every 15 minutes you’re late. Honestly, this company should be audited on their practices.

Absolute midwit bigots. They sick the dogs to jump on you in stores. Hide inside and mess up merchandise. They are a nuisance. If you call them out on their pompous and self absorbed behavior they go for low hanging fruit insults. If you’re white they call you racist, if you’re a minority they say you hate vets. These people’s hubris is immense.
