Weird. In truth, what I think they're trying to convey is that they have a comprehensive range of pets, animal accessories and pet food as well as the know how to match. Having checked out their store and bought a couple of tetras as a gift for a friend's aquarium I'd have to agree. And before I go on to catalogue the impressive animal inventory on offer I'd like to point out that these guys do not support the ethically dubious practice of 'puppy farming' that some other bigger chains do, instead adopting out cats and dogs (not necessarily the cute juvenile ones) from animal welfare groups in an admirable not-for-profit venture. Kudos guys... OK, public service message aside these guys have: birds, fish, cute as a button baby turtles, lizards (blue-tongues, various 'dragons'), snakes and even pet insects. That's right, INSECTS ( I spotted some very interesting and well camouflaged leaf insects for sale)! Their range of healthy pet food has equal 'wow' factor. There are heaps organic meats and bones for your dog, even vegetarian equivalents of old favourite pet snacks like the vege pig's ear. If you're looking for a new animal friend, or a gift for your current one, you can't go wrong with Pets Unleashed.

They have an extensive range of beds, bowls, leashes (big range of Puppia harnesses), medication, toys, treats, grooming aides - pretty much everything you'd need. The prices seem pretty reasonable too. Up the back are the puppies. They were pretty vocal when I was there, but the cages looked large and clean and nothing smelled bad. What I really liked was how the puppies were behind a gate, with big signs asking you to get a sales assistant if you wanted to look. All the cages had signs warning not to touch as the puppies aren't fully vaccinated yet. I know that your average pet shop wouldn't take that much care with a puppy's health so I took that as a good sign. They also do grooming, I have my dog booked in for the works package - she's about 8 kg's and they're charging me $55 for hydrobath, clip, toenails and ears. With optional bow (I said no, my dog is a Pomeranian cross and already looks girly enough).

My little Jack Russell Domino was from here! I remember when we first drove by, we went in, and…read morewere really surprised at the amount of puppies they had in the back room. You can't pet them unless you're serious about buying one, and you have to spray your hands with sanitiser before they let you near a pup. We weren't even in the market for a puppy. The second time we came here, we bought one. How silly of us, but do we regret it? 6 years later, he is the best puppy we have ever gotten. The only one we have ever bought together actually. They don't get their dogs from puppy farms here, but from breeders from Melbourne and Sydney. The puppies are flown in, dates are on their websites as to which breeds are expected when, and they are super strict about disease control, vaccination and worming. Chipping as well if you want that too prior to picking your pup up. This little centre is pretty surprisingly popular, most popular breeds like your labradoodle and pug go pretty quickly as soon as they arrive (pre-order your pups apparently) and you can trust that you will get papers and a good legit non-puppy farmed dog from here, unlike other places. To top it off, they have cat, bird and other pet supplies too, a great range of leads, collars and toys for your best friend. Really love this place!

Then, behind the counter, there's a row of flea tablets lined up like cigarette packets. Glancing at the beer and tablet line-up, I felt like I was in the equivalent of a dream toy shop for dogs where they also sell beer and smokes. This large store sells an insane amount of toys for your pet. There's stuff for cats, birds, fish and other pets, but as I have a dog it was mostly dog-specific products I focused on. The dog selection seemed to take up a large proportion of the store, and there's even a dog (a surprisingly docile Chihuahua) that sleeps on the front counter. (He's six, called Louis, and likes pats but not being held.) Besides a huge selection of toys - so much you can't take it all in in one visit - there's other stuff to pimp out your pet, including a doggy clothing rack if your pet is that way inclined. The Pet Cafe also boasts a wide range of health foods for dogs, particularly those suffering from health issues (e.g. calcium deficiency, obesity - general medical issues that also seem common to humans). The store stocks both Science Diet and Advance food and health products. In terms of The Unhealthy, the front counter showcases an assortment of doggy cookies and chocolates (actually made of carob) that are home-made looking. They weren't as expensive as I thought they'd be, but I'd bought enough stuff here already. The counter staff were also incredibly friendly and chatty, which you'd gather from a business where there is a resident pet.

Katie in particular was just so kind and caring and full of great ways to help Snoopy settle in with us and gave us some samples of food to try him on as he's had been very fussy and nervous about eating. It's helped us a lot as buying a big bag of biscuits and him not eating any of them was a real worry. Look forward to coming back in a few weeks to show him off after we've washed him in his new shampoo and conditioner and we've figured out what he really does like to eat.

My dog is too busy keeping up with his napping schedule to tell me how his morning at Paddington…read morePups went, but as his dutiful owner and payer of all his bills, I suppose I can justify telling you how pleased I was with the result. Finding Paddington Pups was the result of a google search and a telephone call where a pleasant young man on the other end told me, "If you can bring him in this morning we can see him." I'd been searching for a new groomer for our pampered pooch after a less than desirable cut just before Winter. All I wanted this visit was a general tidy up, wash and dry (his visits to the salon sound all too much like mine!). Paddington Pups were able to see Dutch that day and it worked out cheaper than our usual salon. Cheaper doesn't always equal better but upon being reunited with my pup a few hours later it sure was in this case. The groomer had heard everything I said and trimmed his face without making him look like a dog without any facial hair. His feet were tidied and there was no great length taken off the rest of his coat. And while I'm yet to make use of it, they also have doggy-day care on site as well as a small range of pet food and toys.

In truth, I haven't bought much here; just a couple of collars I think, but I visit regularly for the nearby coin operated dog wash, which suits me very well, as it's open 24 hours a day and for $10 if I move fast I can get both my doggies shampooed, flea rinsed, conditioned and partly dry.

I also detest pet stores that sell puppies and kittens (there should be a law passed that bans this.) But recently, I adopted a dog and went a little nuts over new collars, leads, toys, bedding and yes - doggy pyjamas. City Farmers at Underwood was a little responsible for that. This place is a one stop shop for all your pet needs, they have so many varieties of all of the above that you could literally spend hours there. There are so many cool toys, and so many doggy (and kitty) treats that I found myself buying up big. They have a loyalty program as well that I recommend signing up for. if you spend over $200 you are able to redeem a certain amount of points and get a discount. I think it equates to a 5% discount over time. They also have regular discounts on pet food and accessories, and its a significant saving ie 20% on premium pet foods. Its best to hang out for one of these sales rather than buying when prices are at their norm. There are City Farmers stores all over Brisbane as well, in fact a new one just opened up at Holland Park (a little closer to home) which I just *have* to check out soon.

The staff at Petbarn are knowledgeable and helpful, and are all animal lovers with lots of experience in pet care. The range of fish and aquarium products here is excellent and they have staff dedicated specifically to helping you establish and maintain your own aquarium. Another thing I like about Petbarn is that pets on leads are welcome, so if you need to get your dog a new collar for example, you can actually bring them in to see what fits (and you can count on them getting cuddles and treats from the staff as well!). Petbarn has a wide variety of pet products including foods, grooming products, accessories, toys, and treats. They also sell some medications such as worming and flea treatments. The staff here are happy to consult with you about whatever pet advice you need. Many times I've come into Petbarn to seek advice about my fish tank and have had a long, helpful conversation with a staff member and then gone home without needing to buy anything because the staff don't push you to buy things in return for their help. For this reason, whenever I need to buy anything for my dogs or aquarium, I head to Petbarn. They also have a customer loyalty card and lots of information about obedience, puppy pre-school, and other pet activities.
