Rylan has always been fairly well-mannered and is friendly once he gets to know you, but he tends to pull on his leash during walks and now he's learning how to share his house with his arch nemesis - a cat. I expressed my concerns with Julie and her mom and they knew exactly what to do about it. I've tried many different harnesses and collars, but I've never tried a pinch collar because I didn't know how to properly use them and didn't want to hurt him. Julie fit him with one and showed me exactly how to use it and got him to do what I couldn't do in the 4+ years I've had him. I was absolutely blown away at how he reacted to this new collar and the amount of instruction she gave and the reasons behind WHY it works. Her philosophy is that she will not sell anything she would not use on her own dogs, so she has first-hand experience on everything she sells and why her products are beneficial. I will forever make the 30 minute drive to her store becaue of how they treat me and Rylan. If you haven't gone yet, GO!

We scheduled appointments at Furchild's for two of our dogs- nail trimming and DIY wash.

Eventually it all worked. Store is located in the heart of historic O'Fallon, IL district. Arrived on time and were warmly greeted. Space is set up with some fun and unique doggy items up front, and the services in rear. Nail trims went off without a hitch-very friendly and capable staff doing the work, and I liked that they dremel sand the sharp nail edges! Staff then helped get us set up at the two wash stations. All supplies readily available including various shampoos and conditioners, brushes, towels etc. Liked the stations a lot, only downside was running out of warm water at the end. Overall very good experience and will use them again.

The staff is remarkable! They are hard working, kind, courteous, knowledgeable, and compassionate. The facility itself is well kept & very clean. Safety is a top priority all dogs must be immunized to ensure all dogs are safe. The dog yards are separated depending on the size of your furry friend, the play areas are well maintained heated & cooled to keep the dogs comfortable. They have video surveillance, which is a plus for any owner. Dogs can roam from inside to outside freely & they are supervised with loving attendants who are with the dogs the whole time.

We are here out at Scott Air Base with my husband on active duty orders. This is relevant because…read morewe are here for only a short set of time and I super pick with my groomers for my little guy. It took me about two months to filter through all the reviews, which I realize that MOST are just negative across the board. In turn, this made it hard to find someplace that wasn't going to "chop up my furbaby." I have so much anxiety about the idea of him getting hurt when at the groomers. I am going to be out there and honest with you all. This was a great experience, and Amy - we booked online - was super open and honest with us when we dropped our little guy off. The staff at the cash register wasn't happy with us that we didn't bring our paperwork with the shots updates, which we happened to leave at the base. The online system did mess up, and she double check to find out that we didn't need the paperwork. After that, the lady at the register to check in was super friendly. When we got to Amy our groomer, she explained everything in full. She followed everything to the T, and our little guy looks so stinking cute. We would come back and ask for Amy again.
