Pretty Eyes, (my service dog) and I have been to several Pet Supply stores and my preference thus far is Wheat Ridge, off of Wadsworth. Immediately we are greeted with smiles and how can we help. BATH PLEASE for my dog, to be clear. They hand us a bucket, ask if we prefer 3 towels, OH YES! Fortunately we have our own brushes, for all too many other patrons have taken off with what was offered for years. No Problem and off we go. Pretty Eyes is READY to get CLEANED with special shampoos and conditioners. The on duty gentleman scurried towards the back to clean the plethora of previous customers, while stating, they have been inundated with Doggy Washes this day. NO Problem for a few moment wait. I unleash my Service dog and open the gate, she is off to her favorite side, jumps in and waits. I must mention, the water hose is "Very Durable" a bit stiff in operating, although they are generous in offering aprons, expect to get a bit wet and be prepare in managing the volume first before starting the wash including your choices of shampoo/conditioners. Yet, the choices are wonderful, from Oatmeal shampoo to shampoo/conditioner in same bottle and more! Ready to towel off! They do have a LONG hose for drying, it is a pitched sound, your dog may or may not care for, HAVE YOUR TOWELS READY! This is a fun time, and NO RUSH. Their set up "A Bucket" for all the fur no longer needed, a place to toss your wet towels and leave your bucket or return the bucket to the front desk. GREAT SERVICE. There is also an extra pricing if you choose; either $14.00 per visit or if one pays up front $40.00/each bath will cost $8.00 Have fun!

This evening I noticed one of the employees that I've had difficulty dealing with (I know his name which is Sam) having a disgruntled discussion with a customer. Although the customer was a bit loud, I could hear her saying that the product she had ordered previously were all expired and to be honest if that happened to me and they were medications I would be very upset as well as this could affect the health of your pets. The employee named Sam,as well as the manager, who appeared quite disheveled, appeared to be taking out their anger at the customer because she wanted them to take accountability, but it appeared they did not care. I didn't hear the entire conversation but left the store as I have also had the same issues at this store. I no longer purchase online as things are always missing or something is wrong with the item. I normally don't leave reviews, but I am tired of being treated as this other older woman has been treated. Workers at the store never seem to care anymore. Customers are never treated with respect.

Poor customer service and suspect return policy…read more I bought a number of items for my son to convert is lizard environment into bioactive. One of those items was a UV light that we ended up not needing. When I went to return it they told me they don't give cash refunds. The light is unused and unopened. The employee pointed to a paper taped to the counter stating that policy. The problem is that when I purchased the dirt, hides and insects, he brought everything to the counter and set it all on top of that notice. So I didn't see it. Nor would I have had the opportunity to see it as nothing placed there went into a bag. When I pointed that out he said it's written in the receipt. Which is also suspect as at that point the transaction is already complete and I had no opportunity to consider their policy at that point. I don't need $100 is store credit. And it's poor business practice to place your refund policy in one place, directly where it will be covered and unseen when checking out. If your goal is to compete and run a viable business how can you continue to lack a reasonable return policy on unused and unopened items?

I have had the worst experiences with Wardle's and just want to warn others…read more In June 2024, as a brand new chicken owners, I bought 3 Rhode Island Red hens from them. I was not able to go into the coop with the sales associate so he just went in, grabbed whatever three hens he could get and put them in my carrier. When I got home and took them out, I noticed one could barely walk. I tried to give her some rescue 911 electrolytes in her water and access to food thinking maybe getting scooped up and put in a box and then being in a car for 15 minutes was a stress on her nervous system and she just needed some time to acclimate. I called Wardle's to tell them what happened and asked if I could switch her for another hen. The manager told me no because she could be sick... even though that meant they had just sold me a sick chicken. She struggled for weeks. We had to keep her in a separate coop and spent countless dollars on a ton of different supplements trying to figure out what was wrong with her and to keep her alive. Finally we tried Vitamin B12 and after a few days of it in her water, she able to walk normally. Although she was always a pretty sickly chicken and not even a year later we found her dead in the coop one morning (no sign of attack or any injuries). Fast forward to September of 2025. We wanted to get a few chicks to raise and integrate with our flock. Against my better judgement, we went back to Wardle's to get chicks. They only had 4 week olds and again, we weren't allowed in the room where the brooders were to pick the ones we wanted so we just told the associate how many and which breeds. We got 3 gold laced Wyandottes, a Rhode Island Red and a Barred Rock. I looked in the box and noticed one of the hens had a pretty big comb. I asked if that was normal because we definitely didn't want a rooster. They assured me it was a hen. 3 months later, our "hen" has started crowing. We can't have roosters in Lakewood so now we have to find someone to take him or cull him. It breaks my heart. Of note, since then we have ordered chicks from McMurray and Meyer's Hatchery and had really healthy, beautiful, hens. Not a single rooster. I would highly recommend ordering from a hatchery over buying any chickens from Wardle's!

The manager (Taya...) who eventually let me in appeared visibly inconvenienced and did not offer any greeting or acknowledgment, which felt inconsistent with basic customer service standards--especially during posted business hours. (8pm close) On the other hand, the associate at the front register was exceptional (blonde lady in her late 30s) --friendly, attentive, and genuinely kind. {She even took the time to offer my dog a treat, which was nice amidst the poor service at the door.} While I understand that closing procedures can be time-sensitive, interactions like the one at the door reflect directly on store leadership. I hope this feedback is taken constructively, as the contrast in service was quite noticeable. I understand, wanting to be out early, but it's important to understand your scheduled out time. -3/22/26
