Pets In The City

Ok so my friend and I had been on the search for puppies for over six months going to local pet stores and puppy boutiques and such. We eventually ran out of local places and went way out of the way to go check out pets in the city, I had found their website and they looked decent enough. However when we got their, i kid you not a friend that had gone with us as soon as we were in the store couldnt hold it in and started to cry. Needless to say she left the store while me and my other friend took in the grotesqueness of it all. First off their front desk was a mess, puppies were running everywhere, their were so many stuffed into one cage, the bigger dogs were locked in what looked like a dungeon in the back, almost all the dogs had a crustiness on their noeses as if sick, some had hair-loss and diarriah (sp?) and i some were even emaciated looking. To top everyhting off we asked about some of the dogs and were told their ages and most of them were six months or over. The owner or whoever the lady was (a middle aged or older asian women) tried her hardest to get us to purchase a dog saying since it was an older dog she could "give us a good deal on it" like it was a car. She had also named the older dogs and called them by name. Please I do not by your dogs from there, please dont support this woman. Lastly I am disgusted how they can advertise this pet store as a happy, healthy place on the tv program Vegas Pets (or whatever its called) when i have seen it first hand. Just terrible. If i didn't have to rate a minimum of one star...they would get nothing, negative if poosible.

My wife and i recently have scoured the valley in search of a new pet. We have seen many stores all over the valley, but this by far blew me away! I went back outside because i felt as if i was in a retail puppy mill! There were dogs (puppies) all over the place, some throwing up, some in corners shaking, one i didn't even know if it was alive! The only thing i thought was even halfway decent was the type of holding cells they were in (no wire on the bottom) unfortunately they were just so packed with puppies it was unbelievable....way to many in one cage. It was the most horrible store i have ever been in, EVER! I cant believe people actually let their children walk in this place! Besides the throwing up, there were dogs running loose on the floors urinating and defecating at will. It is not only unhealthy for the small puppies but very unhealthy for humans.Oh and by the way their puppy sale sign is tied to 2 handicapped sign posts (for parking) and cover the area that is supposed to be wheel chair accessible. I am so surprised that Vons or even the landlord has not done something about this. Apparently animal control doesn't exist out there. Pet stores are fun to go in to ....but this shouldnt even be listed as one.
