Dogology is amazing. We have had two sessions in our home with Mike, and he has helped…read moresignificantly with our rescue dog, Leia. The first time Mike came, Leia refused to go outside with my fiancé. She refused to go potty with anyone besides me. She was terrified of everything. She growled at things she didn't understand and had some really obnoxious habits. Before he left that first day, we had her going outside with my fiancé. He explained the concept of how to hold the leash to us. He helped us understand how some of the things we thought we were doing to correct her behavior was actually probably reenforcing it. Since he was here that first time, she's come out of her shell so much more than she had before. She's acting more like a dog and I know we have Mike to thank for that. Although seemingly expensive, it's worth every penny. This week he showed us how to do down/stay and helped us understand how to help her with getting in the car and being comfortable. All around, we're so grateful to have him on this journey with us.

He also wanted to see his most up to date Rabies vaccine. He said he would call me when he's ready in around three hours. So I went around town to do some errands. I got the call around 4:00 that he's ready and I could pick him up. I couldn't wait to see his fresh new summer haircut! I was so, so very embarrassed with what the groomer told me. He said they couldn't cut around his face, he was way too aggressive. He really isn't an aggressive dog at all. He's had most of his teeth removed, so couldn't be aggressive by biting. I thought they did a great job on his body, and he smelled so fresh and clean. His head was a bit uneven because he was wiggly. They didn't charge me for this haircut, that was pretty embarrassing too, they worked on him for a long time. They didn't even want to accept my tip. I truly appreciate their honesty and their hard work. I'm going to work on fixing the unevenness my self. I recommended Petco of Avon even if I won't be returning here. They are hard working and honest. If your pup could sit still it'll be so much easier for everyone.

It's not user-error, as I've attempted from multiple different devices with no success. So I attempted to purchase and schedule the training sessions by calling the store directly. When I did so, they told me I had to purchase online or come into the store to purchase training sessions. I told the guy about the website issue and that I wasn't able to purchase online, his response was that "he's not concerned about the website and has nothing to do with it". So I drove 25 minutes to the store to make the purchase. Once at the store they told me I could only purchase training sessions when the trainer is at the store. How do these people make money, I give up...

I never thought we would ever find a groomer as great as Kelsey McCracken when we needed to find a replacement..... I am so thrilled to have met Erika Alwardt!

I will continue to drive from my home in West Hartford to the Canton location for Erika to be his groomer. Thank you Erika!!!! Also, the owner Renata always goes above and beyond for her customers.

I just love that) But it took my awhile to finally stop and go in (had to yelp research it first!). I'm so glad I decided to check it out after seeing all these amazing reviews! My 9 month old puppy had recently determined he no longer enjoyed his Stella & Chewy raw coated kibble, so I brought him into WAGS to see if I could find an option for him that he did enjoy. Ken gave Bard, my puppy, a couple of different samples to try. Eventually it was determined that Bard didn't like any dry kibble, but loved raw meat. Susan also helped to verify this. (Susan and Ken have a slightly different technique in helping you find the right food for your pet) They were both so helpful and had a wealth of knowledge. Bard ended up with Steve's Real Food beef patties has his meal of choice. (plus some dog yogurt from Nuggets!) It's been a week and he is loving the switch. Ken also gave me his card and told me to call with any questions or concerns. Absolutely wonderful place!

Since switching her diet she's gotten much healthier, and seems way more like the girl we remember. If you're looking for a value or discount establishment go somewhere else, but if you're looking to do right by your animals, this is very likely the best place you can go. The level of passion shown by the owner was especially nice. This is the kind of spot that I hope stays in business, for the animals sake.

I must say I have driven by here uncounted times before I ever stopped in. This was most likely due…read moreto the fact that have been to similar garden centers in the area that had limited selection and high prices. My first time in I was surprised that the prices were not at the usual "we are in the Farmington Valley so lets screw them" levels. I was also really surprised how many of the customers they knew by name. Nothing speaks as well of a business as having such long term customers that you know many on a first name basis. I big plus for me is that they have a large selection organic gardening supplies. More than anyone in the area and at fair prices. (Not to get off track but if you vegetable garden you get better yields and quality if you go organic. I made the switch several years ago and haven't looked back.) Bidwell's also has that true garden center atmosphere. Garden stuff, fireplace stuff, bird stuff, and even a friendly cat that sleeps in the box of peat pots. In short, a good friendly place that may just have that odd yard, garden, or pet thing you are looking for at OK prices.

Ahh the pleasure of shopping locally. I have no idea where else I could have found the feeder, and the gift wrapping was the cherry on top. Unfortunately I've been conditioned to shop the big box stores, I'm positive I would not have found this anywhere else. Very positive experience, the owner and staff were really nice people.
