Puppies To Guppies

This is a nice store with very friendly staff. The puppies are adorable, and they look healthy and well-cared for. I did ask where the puppies came from, and an associate gave me a very long and round-about answer about them coming from a place in Kansas. I've asked several other pet stores and they have told me the same thing. They got them from a broker in Kansas. I did some research, and apparently many puppy mills distribute their "produce" through brokers in Kansas. Even if a store says they get their puppies from government inspected kennels, that doesn't mean anything because "up to code" conditions are still aweful for the poor mothers, which are literally bred to death. They all spend their life in cages.

Bottom line people: Puppy mills will never stop unless we stop supporting them through pet stores. Buy from a reputable breeder or adopt! And just a side note, breeders are usually cheaper than pet stores anyway.

This is the perfect place to buy furry animals. From dogs and cats to Hamsters and Rabbits. Good selection of pet supplies. Higher prices than the big chains. Higher quality items, good customer service.

I too went for the fish and was disappointed with the variety. But, the puppies are cute as can be and very well cared for. They have a play area for them as well, so they aren't cooped up in a cage all day and you get to interact with your potential new little friend to see if you get along together well. I think they're great for warm blooded pets, but I'll stay with Aquamain for the fishies.

The name is misleading, because the store is small and does not have many fish (the guppies are the feeder kind without much color, not the fancy ones). However, the puppies are cute and the staff is very friendly about little kids coming in to look at the animals.
