Pets Paradise

This pet shop ranges over two storeys. Downstairs there is bright collection of tropical fish along…read morewith the standard animal food, accessories and some of the biggest chewy bones you can get which are no doubt much favoured by burly Rottweilers, Alsatians, Bull Terriers and Boxers around and about. 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.

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 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.

Reminds me of my goldfish selecting when I was teeny tiny myself (haven't grown much since then), when I selected one male, and one female and named them Dixie and Dora (the Explorer stylee, though that was long before her time). The fact that we had no idea regarding the sex of each fish was completely irrelevant - I was convinced they were going to have little fishes. Which never happened. And they both died. Sniff. But...we weren't in the Pet Centre to purchase fish, or anything fish related (well, that's not strictly true, but I'm getting to that). In fact, we were there to buy our cat some food (ironic, I know), though not necessarily the fishy kind. Phew. Yep, a few treats and denta-something-or-others, and we were done in the snug Pet Centre. Yep, it's nearly as teeny tiny as those fish, and me at once stage, but it's crammed full of everything... Including fish.

Having searched high and low for a collar for our cat (see Ards Pet Supplies review), my sister and…read moreI decided to check out Pets 'N' Gardens (not too sure where the gardens bit comes in, but hey) to see what we could find... As we scanned the store for cat collars, one of the shop assistants appeared with a pair of scissors and walked over behind us as I asked him if they had any collars. Just as I was doing this, Mr Pet Shop Man (not to be confused with the techno group Pet Shop Boys) held his scissors up and pretended to cut my sister's hair. Mmm. He did stop moments later when he realised I wasn't amused, and referred us to a beam, with plenty of cat collars to look at. My sister chose a pretty pink leather one (for only £2.49!), whilst as I watched Mr Pet Shop Man and his scissors. Some banter was had about said incident, and I'm not completely lacking in humour, but I was fearful for my hair, it must be said. 24 hours later, my sister's hair is still intact, mine has been cut (by a hairdresser, thank heavens), and our puss is looking pretty in pink. I guess that deserves an extra wee star, plus he did have a sense of humour (whether it was good or not is debatable...). Ok, 4 it is then.

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.
Pets At Home

Pets at Home have absolutely everything your feathered and furry friends could possibly need…read more There's food, toys, beds, blankets, leads, fleeing and worming medication and a vet counter in store. 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.

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...

The man who working (may have been the owner) was polite and friendly. He told me to come back in about 45 mins however I got a text message 20 minutes later to say that Ted was ready to go. When I arrived the guy had Ted on his lap (well I think he was) because he wasn't in a cage or anything - he clearly loves dogs. Ted was groomed so well I almost didn't recognise him, his nails were cut, his coat was trimmed to perfection and he was smelling delightful. I thought Teds previous cuts were either to short or either not short enough but I thought this cut perfect! I will definitely not be going anywhere else from now on.

My friend takes her massive labra-doddle there for her pampering treatment and having seen Betty just yesterday I can say they do a fine job. My friend trusts them, she tells me they are reasonably priced and that Betty enjoys her experiences there. I looked in the door the other day and noticed they have hoists for bigger dogs and they use something that looks like a hoover to hoover up the stray hairs. I'm definitely going to take Toby in, just for the sheer comedy of him getting hoisted up onto a table and hoovered!! He HATES our hoover so it should be a genuine comedy moment. One small thing: Molly's may have gone a little overboard with the doggy perfume on Betty - she was smelling like Boots perfume counter!
Having always had Dobermann's that don't need grooming as such from a groomers (I have always…read morewashed Maisy myself), it was with some trepidation that I had to search for a groomer for my newest addition - a 'Cockalier'. Spoke to some doggie friends and then did a rekkie to Molly's. Molly's have now given her two 'puppy' grooming sessions and just yesterday her first real cut. I am so delighted because they did what I wanted (unlike my hairdressers). Her hair is short enough to not tangle but long enough to still be the cutest dog ever (after Maisy that is). I love that she smells of baby powder. Finally Lola is quiet shy outside of the house but she just loves them which is so important to me.
I love Assisi - it is such a good cause.

Assisi is well run by a team of staff and volunteers, and they are widely supported by the local community in Bangor and far beyond. They strictly vet any person adopting an animal, and do house visits before and after the animal is adopted, to ensure that they have gone to a good home. One complaint I have, and I stongly suspect that this is an isolated incident, but I feel that I should mention it anyway: My parents adopted a dog from Assisi last year, and before they brought him home, they were assured that he was friendly with cats. They brought him home, and as he was settling in, my parents elderly cat wandered into the room, the dog absolutely leapt at the cat with aggression I have never seen before and attacked her. Needless to say, the dog had to go back, which left us feeling a bit let down by their system.
I'll probably shed a wee tear during the writing of this review, purely because a) I'm a bit gushy…read more b) It reminds me of a previous story of a certain beloved cat (mentioned in my review of Gortlands Vets if you're interested). c) It has a happy ending (the review that is). When I was younger, my parents, my sister and I would head up to Assisi nearly every weekend, bringing cat food and treats for the, well, cats. We spent all afternoon with the cats in particular, playing with them, watching them, seeing how things were done. We also paid a visit to see the dogs, guinea pigs and rabbits, but it was with the cats that are hearts lay. Two years after loosing our first puss, my mum, dad and sister decided to go to Assisi to select a new one. After a great deal of thought, they chose Nutmeg, a beautiful tortoiseshell and blue whose owner had died a couple of months before, and arranged to pick her up the next week. Assisi don't ask for payment, but you can make a donation, and the cats are all neutered and have undergone recent veterinary checks, so we only paid a small amount to help fund the animal shelter. Six months later, and Nutmeg is very much one of the family. Assisi do a fantastic job with all the animals, and we are very thankful we were able to help them out by homing a cat. Aww, knew I'd cry...
