This place is thee place for cheap pet supplies. This meaning, it's not a pet shop is actually…read morequite attractive - there's no kiddies huddling round cages; it's always pretty quiet and you can be in and out in minutes. In and out in minutes in a good way that is. More the 'I'll dash in to pick up [required item] on the way home opposed to the 'Oh my goodness - run for the door quick!'. The staff are really friendly and ultra helpful with a good knowledge of pet care, products and everything in-between (despite not actually having any pets in store). You'll also find loads of stock packed into a, relatively, small shop. Hence, if you wanted to you could easily spend a good while in here mulling over the high selves with everything from cat and dog baskets to guinea pig exercise toys. Erm, this is where I have to admit that me and the boy drunkenly bought a guinea pig together about nine months ago. Furthermore, it's only been within the past month that I've discovered guinea pig exercise toys exist - for 'fun, health, entertainment and exercise'. Therefore, this is the place where you'll find any pet related supplies you need - or think you need now that you know they exist. The staff are great, the prices and much better than anywhere else I've been and it would seem that they have the tastiest guinea pig food around. Oh, and they have an array of people's personal adverts for litters in the window/door way so you can always have a look over those if you're thinking about acquiring a new pet. You'll also find a good range of very decently priced hutches and cages.

This place is huge and you can get pretty much everything you could ever want for your furry…read morefriends here. Biscuits, treats or something for a more sophisticated palet. The staff are also really helpful and will keep you right so you won't disappoint. If you've recently got a new critter then the people here are great for advice. Although they don't stock a lot of things for the reptile population they helped my old flatmate get the right materials for her baby corn snake, so whatever animal you have, they know what they're talking about. Even if you need something that they don't usually stock, they can sometimes order it in for you.

called before I went to bath my dog, and told as long as you were there at 4pm…read moreI could bath my dog, arrived at 3:55 and they were locking up. did say I could use the bath she would open up again 1/2 heartedly but how can you say yes please when the other two staff walk away and get in their car. was told we open at 9 tomorrow morning when I have an 1 hour round trip. have used on lots of occasions, certainly won't be again. why advertise your opening hours as closing at 4:30 when you close at 3:55 could have told me on the phone I had to be there for 3:30!!!!!!

I really think that pet groomers are obligated to have a punny name and as puns go you don't get…read moremuch better than Wizard of Paws! We've been taking our Yorkshire Terrier here for 8 years and have always been happy with the quality of her haircut and the quality of her care. Our dog can be a bit of a diva to put it nicely and they are patient and kind and don't rush through the haircut and upset her. If she's having a bad day they will let her go chill out and come back and finish later. I can't stress enough how amazing that is---they care more about the dog's well being than getting the grooming done as quickly as possible. If it takes 2-3 hours then that is what it takes and I love that they put the dog first. They also have washing stations where you can bring in your muddy mutt and wash them yourself. It means you won't have to make a mess in your bathroom and they have everything you'd need. They also offer kenneling, doggy daycare and a full shop on site with food, snacks and other pet accessories. I can't recommend it enough and I'd never think of taking our dog anywhere else.

Surely the best pet shop in Glasgow, or indeed anywhere, Neon Gecko deals in exotic pets you don't…read morenormally find and wouldn't want to leave alone with your pet hamster. They sell some absolutely stunning lizards, snakes, spiders and birds, as well as all the slightly macabre things you'd need to feed them, and other stuff for their habitat. They also do trpoical fish, including the Finding Nemo style marine variety which are practically impossible to come across in normal pet stores. The staff are all knowledgable reptile types themselves, so If you're just popping in to try and rubberneck at a python devouring a whole mouse, then you'll be treated accordingly. If you're genuinely interested in these creatures though, then it's an essential visit.

Proprietors of all reptiles exotic and scary and all things for all reptiles exotic and scary, Neon…read moreGecko is situated in disconcertingly small premises in a particularly unexotic stretch of London Road. On my visit, I encountered a parrot the size of a small country (or perhaps more accurately, the size of a big parrot) and a gruff member of staff who seemed like he would not think twice about setting a box load of pythons on me if I asked him a silly question. But then again, this is not an exhibition but rather a genuinely well-respected stockist in a retail area which requires knowledge and sensitivity. With a wide range of marine livestock, snakes, lizards, tortoises and basically everything I, personally, don't want in my house, I'm sure staff are more than willing to deal with genuine exotic reptile enthusiasts and less willing to deal with "gonna make the parrot talk mister" time wasters, which must be a regular occurrence. The shop itself has a little of that ramshackle, thrown-together feel which runs through many of the businesses in London Road but I guess that's part of its charm. Indeed it can perhaps be best summed up by the photo on its website of the 475 quid Green Tree Python... ....sitting on top of a Daily Record. Well it is the Glasgow take on exotic after all.
