I swung by to buy timothy hay for the guinea pigs I'm fostering for a local rescue and I was so…read morethrilled to see that The Animal Connection also had rescued guinea pigs (as opposed to guinea pig from a breeder/breeding mill like the ones at Petco/Petsmart). The person working there was very nice and I think they care about animals... but they still buy some animals from breeders/breeding mills to resell them... It's really sad that some pet stores still do this, while so many rescued animals need homes. I hope The Animal Connection with do the right thing by transition to rescue-only and partner with local rescues to help get animals adopted who needs homes, and stop buying/selling any animals from breeders/breeding mills. Please do the right thing! Myself and soooo many other animal guardians really want to support businesses like yours, but not animal exploitation.

There was the standard treats, toys, food and accessories, but there was also a self serve pet washing area, and a pet play area/ training area. Unfortunately, someone was training while we were there, but from what it looks like, when there isn't a training session you can let your dog into the area for a but. We ended up buying some treats and toys for our dog after walking around the store a couple times and letting him sniff around. The staff was friendly and it was a nice way to kill some time while we waited for an appointment.

I have been going to this particular pet food store for a while now. Why? Well... let me explain…read more.. THEY ARE GREAT! So they have this awesome special that if you buy three bags of pet food, you get the 4th FREE. AND, you can mix and match. That alone is not why I love it so much though. I like the variety (Well... my CATS like the variety), and the folks who work there are very knowledgeable about all things PETS. in my last trip I had a conversation with a team member about buying grass for my cats and I took their suggestion. I brought this little thing of grass and my cats went nuts. Just another thing to add to make my kitties happy. I've also gotten some tips on OTC stuff I can give me cats when they have some respiratory stuff happening (L-Lysine FYI) and it seemed to help! One of my girls has issues and doing great. They have a huge selection of Stella & Chewy as well. If you haven't purchased this for your dog or cat, you should. THEY love the stuff. The ONLY drawback, parking can be a challenge because everyone is going to Jolibee, it's still doable though, and I'm not taking any stars for that! Just the "quick" tip, GO THERE. Nice people, great selection, and the 4 for 3 deal is great. Plus your pets will appreciate you.

It shows that the owner really cares about the well-being of your pet rather than the profits. I love the open treat bins because I let my dog pick out his own treats. I have a 83 pound husky mix, so the bathing stations are super convenient. Although the price has gone up from the self-service over the years. I remembered paying $40 for 5 baths, you pay for 4 tokens and get one free. My partner used up our last one and this time he said he paid $60 for 4 tokens. I asked if there was a deal and the seal was $60 for 3 tokens, with 1 free. The jump in price is pretty crazy, but it saves my pipes from clogging. I'm not sure if it's something they can fix, but once in awhile the pressure from the water spout and the dryer is a bit weak depending on the station and it is not consistent. This happened to me maybe 2-3 times and the staff always allows me to switch stations after I had already inserted my coins. Doesn't always fix the issue, but the pressure can be slightly better on a different one.
