I went in with my fiancé a few days ago. Those poor puppies looked sick/depressed. Three puppies should not be encased in a tiny glass display with no water/food. There was pee all over the bottom of the display, but on the bright side, the OH SO DILIGENT employees were replenishing fresh newspaper... inside the display case with pee everywhere. Logic, amirite?
I feel so bad for these puppies, it's critical in a puppy's life to be socialized with people. Clearly, these were mill puppies, horribly overpriced mixed breeds, grouped together by specific mutt breed, I guess? Nonetheless, they were NOT socialized as much as they should have been.
I asked to hold one, one was scratching at the glass trying to get to me. I just wanted to give this poor little baby a hug. Guess where my empathy gets me? "You can't hold them unless you're interested in buying." EXCUSE ME??? How will I know if I'm interested in buying if I can't even hold/interact with the animal?
The reptiles were not taken care of, I saw no heat lamps, the rabbit looked sad and lethargic.
I'm horrified, if I could give this place a zero, I would. Oh, and before I'm attacked on "Oooh you're just mad you weren't allowed to hold a puppy", no... I'm mad at the fact that these animals aren't loved and well taken care of and socialized enough. I wanted to provide a bright spot in this little life's day, these animals CLEARLY aren't getting the love they need. What makes me mad is that a place like this exists with such rude, apathetic employees that are too put out to socialize them and can't even keep their environments clean. It looked like a living ASPCA commercial, these animals were sad and mangy.
They have no empathy for these animals, please adopt from a shelter, please don't waste your time buying from a pet store like these people who lack compassion and decency. It's not the animals faults though, this place needs to be shut down, these "breeders" they get these animals from need to be investigated, and these animals all need to see a vet ASAP!!!!!! read more
