They have various foster cats available for adoption and they carry a lot of good food brands that go beyond your average Iams or Fancy Feast. They provide strong customer service and seem involved with the community. I would definitely visit here again. The only downside is that parking is out behind the building and the storefront is on the front along Main Street, so there's not a very easy way to buy litter and haul it out to the car.

I do not agree with the other reviews here. I walked in today off the street and this store was…read moreabsolutely incredible! Probably the coolest and widest selection of animals in one spot I've seen in a long time; everything from tree frogs rats to axolotls to ferrets to snails to cats to snakes to.. are those quails?! Is that a freaking Kookaburra?! They have a fascinating and wide selection, they have a beautiful Bengal cat walking around who is CLEARLY an employee because he kept a close eye on me as I checked out the rats and then retreated into the "Authorized Personnel Only" area to take his break. Prices seemed fair and the employees seem friendly and concerned about the longevity of their animals. There are lots of signs educating customers, encouraging good practices even for their live feeder crickets, and it's clear they are involved in the local community. The slew of negative reviews in a row feels targeted and they are not warranted.. This was an amazing find!

She turned the Open sign on but did not unlock the front door. I waited a few minutes then called and asked if they were opened today. The employee was short with me and rude. She states she couldn't unlock the front door at 11:03 am because I bothered her by calling. She locks the door, doesn't even bother to open it and say welcome or good morning then proceeds to walk to the very back of the store. She failed to even turn on the lights so I could shop. I looked around couldn't see so I left and I will not be returning. I suggest everyone to go to Best Pets in Antioch or Something Fishy in Fox Lake where employees are respectful and helpful. ​​

She let us bring our dog to meet the new puppy before we brought him home, just to make sure they would be a good match. Her facility is sparkling clean, the dogs are lovingly cared for and she runs a tip-top shop. I would not hesitate recommending Robin and have a strong feeling we'll be back for another beautiful pup. We've had dogs for decades and never have met a more knowledgeable and thorough breeder with which to work. Impressed beyond belief.

She wants her dogs on raw diets, it's very expensive. Ask a vet if it's the best thing for dogs. She'll tell you your dog will die f you don't do it. This is our second dog from her but we won't be going back. Do your homework. Buyer beware.

Prices are relatively on par with most raw/ freeze dried/ natural pet food but they do have some deals and punch cards for free items (eventually) which is nice! I cant afford to go in too often as I am on a strict budget but as soon as I can, I plan on visiting for more raw snacks for my boys! also to add- they gave a scale in the store which is really useful to weigh in your pet without going to the vet!

They provide towels, five kinds of shampoo, dryers, and basic grooming tools. On top of this, the room is completely private. My dog was abused by her original owners, and is terrified of baths.

The grooming station was filled with dog hair, I had to clean the dog hair out of the actual Fan great for the dryer, and there was standing water in the tub that I literally had to clean the trap out I don't know if it was a husky in there before I walked in, but the entire dog washing room was a disaster. I luckily brought two extra towels that I laid on the floor Just to walk on. I've never seen such a disastrous looking room in my life, and I have been going there for quite a while.

While I am inside the tiny "store" I am greeted by live chicks, and feed for a wide spectrum of animals: dogs, cats, horse, chickens, pigs, birds, rabbit and small animals. Also bedding and hay and then add in gifts and accessories. All in a very small shop. Whether you are a small or large hobby farm, check out their website and it will give you lots of info about all they offer. And the pricing is really good. Drive up, pay and they load your car. The steps inside are small and old, no real accessibility, but everyone who works here is helpful. I have barely scratched the surface of what Merton Feed does. It is so great to have an old-fashioned no-nonsense feed store to shop instead of the big box places. It is absolutely worth the drive.
