YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF YOURSELF. GOD IS ALMIGHTY SEES ALL AND KNOWS ALL AND WHAT IS DONE IN THIS LIFE IS ANSWERED FOR IN THE NRXT. I HOPE YOUR SINS ARE NOT TO GREAT FOR YOUR CHILDREN

When I think of a purchasing a service for easing the process of losing a loved one - and contrast that with the neglect of knowingly leaving a 2 year old dog to suffer a cruel and avoidable death - the distance between those ideas makes me feel like the business owners may be very poorly aligned with the general expectations of moral considerations from a funeral service business.

These reviews are fueled by false accusations and hatred. What happened to innocent until proven guilty??? All of these people have rushed to judgement. You do not know the Washington's!!!!! They are good, decent people. They have been advocates for the community and stellar business people. This situation should have never gone this far. All you did was listen to a person who was seeking social media likes and following. Unfortunately, there was a death of a beloved family dog. Not because of neglect or abuse. Stop harassing these people and their business. To use this venue to discredit them and their business is wrong. Paradise Funeral Home is still the best Funeral Home in Dallas Texas! Frankie & Barbara Washington are pillars of the community and will continue to be great business leaders in the community and the funeral business. I STAND WITH YOU!

Hi there! Marie Rodriguez from Texas, you should be so proud of yourselves! You both are living proof that hypocrisy and evil exists. You do crime and think you can get away with it. You own a funeral home and killed your dog by leaving him with no food/ water??? WOW. Living proof to show the world where money gets you. Shame on yourselves.

Don’t do business with these people they had a two year-old golden doodle which they left out in the Texas summer heat. A neighbor even warned them and offered to help look after the dog. They apparently didn’t care and continued to leave the poor dog out in the hot sun causing it to die of heat stroke. https://www.chron.com/news/article/goldendoodle-rocco-texas-dies-heat-22413101.php

The owners of this funeral let their 2 year old dog suffer without food & water in the hot heat leading it to DIE!!! How can anyone leaving a living being like their own dog to die be trusted with someone you loved? This is not a business you should be supporting. Take it elsewhere to where they believe that all living things matter.

Jane S.

Sep 01, 2026

What you did to Rocco was beyond evil, disgusting, and inhumane. For someone who owns a funeral home yet treated their own dog like absolute hell, there is simply no excuse. Rocco deserved love, care, and protection—not cruelty and suffering. Karma has a way of catching up with people, and I truly believe you’ll get what you deserve. May your next life be spent chained up under the scorching sun, so you can understand the suffering you put Rocco through. May you face the same cruelty and helplessness you inflicted on an innocent animal.

Terrible people they killed their dog leaving him outside in the scorching heat to bake to death without any water or shade.. Not anyone you’d want taking care of your loved ones can’t imagine if they treat a dog like that how they’ll treat a Human. Shane on you!!

Marlena J.

I hope these "people" treat your loved one better than they treated their dog. They left Rocco CHAINED up outside all day & night in the brutal heat wave DFW has been experiencing. No water, no shade. Despicable creatures.

Teresa F.

Sep 01, 2026

Can’t trust people who leave their dog chained up in 100+ degree weather to die!!! POS owners should pay for what they have done to that animal. There was multiple attempts to save the dog but Barbara and Frankie didn’t give a damn.

The owners left their dog outside for 10-12 hours with no water over and over and he died. Cruel inhuman people. Don’t use this place. The owners will be going to hell anyways

Rocco M.

Sep 01, 2026

THEY LEFT THEIR DOG TO DIE IN THE HEAT!!!!! What human garbage could torture an innocent dog, by watching it slowly die of heat exposure...these monsters did just that...their dog, Rocco, a sweet Goldendoodle, was left tied and tethered in the hot sun, with no SHADE, no WATER, no FOOD...I pray their business fails, they lose their home, and they have no peace at all..Why the f*ck did they have a dog..I pray Karma comes for them..they deserve to suffer the way they made their dog suffer!!!!!!!! I would never reward them by giving them my business, if a loved one passed away...they don't deserve your money...

Carl B.

Sep 01, 2026

These pieces of human garbage tortured their 2 year old golden doodle by leaving him tied up outside every day for 12 hours, in the heat, with no water, food, or shade.. What kind of inhumane monster can watch a helpless animal die, in pain like this..I pray these owners lose their house, their business, and are miserable every day of the rest of their lives...how disgusting to call yourselves Christians...you are depraved, immoral, POS....

Martin J.

The owners are under investigation for killing their dog Rocco by leaving him in the heat. If they are unable to take care of an animal properly, I wouldn’t trust them with your deceased love on either.

Seth B.

Sep 01, 2026

The owners of this funeral house are under investigation for animal cruelty. They left their dog Rocco for over 10 hours chained outside in the Tx heat repeatedly until he died. One of their neighbors begged them to stop, offered to care for the pup, and they just refused. Who knows how they treat your loved ones when no one’s looking.

why would anyone leave their dog out in horrendous heat to suffer heatstroke and die? why would you do that frank and Barbara??? How can you run a reputable business when you are so stupid and lack all common sense? I hope you lose all business. I hope this story spreads far and wide. Shameful. And fu ck you both.

Use Paradise Funeral home if you want your loved ones to be neglected and abandoned in the same way the owners neglected their dog and left him to die in the boiling Texas sun.

DO NOT GIVE ANY BUSINESS TO THESE PEOPLE.!!! Please think carefully before supporting this business. I am extremely disturbed by how their dog was allegedly treated. The dog was reportedly left outside in extreme heat for more than 10 hours without adequate shade or water, despite offers to help. I believe animals deserve proper care and protection, and I encourage people to consider the facts and available evidence before supporting this business. Justice for poor Rocco 😢 and justice will be served just matter of time.

Sick ass animal abusers. News of what happened has made it country-wide at this point so now everyone hopefully knows what monsters these people are. Someone should leave their asses outside in the Texas heat chained to something with no water or resources until they die too.

Casey G.

Aug 17, 2026

There is no excuse. NONE. HAVE YOU EVEN LOOKED AT THE VIDEO OF YOUR DOG?!?????! HE WAS MISERABLE!!! I pray you know what it's like to feel alone and ignored. My heart is broken that YOUR DOG died all alone for neglect because you didn't care. I hope karma comes back ten fold. Animals are so loyal and just want to be loved. I think you should sit in the middle of the yard for 10 hours in the sun to see how comfortable it is. No water.

These sick disgusting excuses for humans TORTURED and killed their Goldendoodle. It’s all over the news. You can see that beautiful baby die. They left it chained up in the yard. Starved it. Beat it. And tortured it. They’re teaching their kids to abuse pets too. They have scammed families for years with this business.

Do Not support this business. They will rip you off, lie and cheat you out of your money. Credit card charges appearing after that you did not authorize. Also all over the news is reports of these owners torturing and abusing their goldendoodle. You can see videos of the dog suffering and dying a slow death. Crying to be let in. What kind of sick monsters are they? I would love to see what race these people are.

If you can't trust them with the life of a dog. Can you trust them with the body of your loved one? These people on multiple occasions were warned that they were leaving their dog out without adequate shade in the texas heat. They refused to listen and because of that their dog died in the heat. That is strictly against the law in texas and I hope they will be geld accountable for the suffering they put that helpless dig through.

Paradise Funeral Home kept a dog outside in the heat which led to the dog's death.

Vera P.

Aug 10, 2026

I watched the owners of Paradise Funeral Home, Barbara A. Washington and Frankie L. Washington, let their dog deteriorate right in their own backyard! I reached out to ask if they needed help - to let the dog off the leash or give it water. They had him outside for more than 10 hours a day and still said no. The worst part is, someone else inside the house ignored his barks and never checked on him. They seemed to want the dog to pass out from heat stroke or exhaustion. Now, the dog is no longer with us. I would NEVER trust a human—especially one who has passed and can't speak for themselves—in their care.
