I'm definitely a fan of this local, husband and wife run pet shop. The couple who run this…read moreestablishment are really nice to do business with, they always ask after my dog and are open for a friendly chat about all things animal (or anything really that comes up!) I buy my dog his special food from this shop as very few places stock it and they order it in specially for me. The lady who works here is not just an assistant but a dog owner herself. She keeps her tiny little dog and her big massive dog together behind the counter and many a day I've lingered on after purchasing just to give them a wee stroke. I've purchased a lot of stuff from this shop including food, toys and Toby's grand apartment (his kennel) Toby is a great big beast and so is his home, the man who works here gladly nearly put his back out helping me carry the swanky new dog house into my van - and all this was going on while the parrot they keep by the door was screeching and whistling at us! I definitely recommend this shop - much more personal and friendly than those big faceless pet stores.

I've been buying our dogs food here for the past year or so and have to say, have always had a warm welcome & any queries I've had have been answered by people who take a genuine interest and actually have pets themselves!!! I have previously fallen victim to the big faceless corporations (much to my hubbies horror) but this little petshop has everything you need to continue returning and its great building up a rapport with the owners... nothing is too much trouble, large items are even taken out to my car for me. What service & prices are very reasonable too!!!! :)

This pet shop ranges over two storeys.

Upstairs there are a few snakes, tropical spiders and lizards. Birds such as perroquets and budgerigars were also on view, alongside furry rodents of the guinea pig, rabbit and chipmunk fraternity. Greater curiosity value came from the chinchillas which are interesting creatures to see though they tend to be inactive and sleepy during the day. If disturbed they make a strange purring chirruping sound and are capable of jumping up a great height so, if you're interested, you'd need a very big cage were you to consider doing business with the proprietor who was helpful and willing to sell, for instance, the chipmunks for £50 instead of £70.

They have the 'Kong' range of toys which are very good for your dogs dental health. The staff are very helpful, and the store is laid out in an easy way which helps you find what you need quickly and easily. The parking is handy too.

They even stayed open a little later for us one night while we were inside and browsing.

Not just dogs, but all sorts of pets, large and small. They are reasonably priced too, compared to some larger pet stores and I bought Darcy a pack of colourful tennis ball type toys for her to play with - guilt be gone.

This is a proper, massive pet supermarket and it's delightful to see dogs walking their owners around the store - if only more businesses could be as animal friendly! Plus with their loyalty card scheme they post discount coupons out, addressed to your pet by name, which is cute. Staff are also very knowledgeable, helpful and pleasant. However it drops a couple of stars for the following reasons: ~ A lot of items you buy from Pets at Home you'll find at the same price or cheaper in your local supermarket. So shop around. ~ I believe it unethical to support the breeding, buying and selling of animals as pets especially when sanctuaries and pounds are filled to overflowing with unwanted pets. Stores such as Pets at Home, which sell animals, just exasperate this problem.

A couple of weeks after my lovely pooch died, my almost as lovely other half tipped me into the car…read moreand drove me to Pets At Home. 'You need something small and furry to cuddle,' he opined as he parked, really quite badly, in the massive car park. 'Apart from me, of course.' Well. I'd never thought of getting a rabbit, but when I saw Bailey, lop-eared and twitchy-nosed, in one of the glass enclosures, I became a bit childlike. I bounced on the balls of my feet a bit, tugged at the other half's sleeve and batted my eyelashes in an alluring manner. (Hang on, that last one's just creepy.) The other half went to find a staff member, while I lurked jealously by the bunny's enclosure, shooting filthy looks at anyone who came near. Especially kids. But he was back within a minute with a very impressively knowledgeable sales assistant, who told me everything I needed to know about rabbits and what to get them. (I wasn't listening by this stage because she'd taken the rabbit out for me and I was cuddling her and cooing into her fur [the rabbit, that is, not the sales assistant, because that would also have been creepy]. But a general sense of really-knowing-her-stuff came through the haze of love.) The shop in general is very well equipped with everything you could need for all types of pet, and the prices are really reasonable, with a budget range of essentials like feeding bowls or doggy poop scoopers starting at a quid. So we duly got all the equipment we needed for the new member of the household, which included a special starter deal for the cage, food, feeding bowl, bottles and toys. Then we very gently took that wascally wabbit home. She's well settled in now, leaves little poo balls everywhere and has been the cause of me electrocuting myself three times with a lead she's chewed through. But I loves her. Cheers, Pets At Home.

The second pet shop visit of the week to find something for our spoilt puss cat. You'll recall my…read moreexcitement at the number of fish in the Ballynahinch Pet Centre (review is about here somewhere), but Beechill's was a step up from those slippery amphibians. Oh yes, screw those fishies...this pet shop had a real life dog. Mmm hmm. A dachshund to be precise, and a friendly mutt it was too. I'm glad that my sister walked into the shop first, as it ran up and greeted us as soon as we were through the door. In fact, I didn't even see what it was my sister was talking to, namely because a) there wasn't a whole lot of room, and b) the dog had raced up to her so deftly that I was unaware of its presence. A couple of seconds later and I realised that the deft dog was now playing dead dog, and had decided to perch itself on my sister's feet. I then took a slight detour to the cat section (I'm not gonna lie...give me a cat over a dog any day of the week), whilst my sister gave doggie a rub. I then realised that the shop assistant was sitting right in front of me, and got ever so slightly embarrassed at my comments to my sister ("get out of the way", "shift that dog" sort of thing). He was evidently very amused at the ongoing shenanigans, and had to stifle a laugh at the comedy unfolding before him. Glad to be of service, sir. I did manage to pick up some food for the cat, but that wasn't before my sister got super excited at the discovery of a yellow and blue budgie. [Don't ask where the dog had gotten too...I haven't a clue. Both of them (sister and mutt) had moved on, so it longer mattered anyhow]. Not much else to report, but it's not often you'll find a pet shop that has a dog as it's greeter...

When we did have our last dog tho we occasionally treated with things from here. This place isn't the best for dog food as you can't get it cheaper in supermarkets if you like tinned food: this place is better for large bags of feed, which are far better for your dog anyways! The store is small but has animal accessories for the most popular domesticated animals like hamsters, cats and many more!
