My half groomed dog

I never been to a grooming salon this terrible! My dog just had puppies and we couldn't put any type of shampoos or other scented items on her. So after a some weeks my dog had some matted areas on her legs and feet. I brought her in to get a new fresh mommy cut and wash and they berated me with questions about how matted she was. I just wanted her to get a cut and wash. Then after I left they call me again about her age. I just went to get my dog and then they skinned her fur allllll the way down. Doodles are high maintenance dogs and that's why I was there to get her in the perfect fur coat to feel new.

This Petco is in a large mall complex - the site formerly occupied by the Lennox Company, which was a purveyor of HVAC equipment at the location. You'd never know it as the buildings and business in the are new and fully modern and I'm guessing people newer to the area might not know or be familiar with the history or origin of the name. On this visit I stopped in to have a look at and reacquaint myself with the grooming area. In the past I used this service to help with grooming needs for a large mixed breed shepherd that I rescued in New York City years ago with assistance from ASPCA's Burgh Animal Hospital. My experience with the Petco groomer at that time was quite positive although she moved to Alaska as I recall. I did speak to someone in the grooming area here recently by telephone about their services. I was informed by that person that they do not muzzle, use cones, or similar restraints, and the preference is that owners are not in the grooming area while the grooming is underway. As I consider the possibility of grooming assistance as needs might arise, My past experience this site visit and the conversation I recently had with their staff will all inform my decisions. I included a couple other photos as well. This store has a particularly large toy section and have found it to be well stocked in others areas for cats and dogs, including food and other supplies.

Completely shaven between his eyes

I'm very unhappy with the grooming service I received for my dog. The more and more I look at his cut the more unhappy I get. They shaved between his eyes I've never seen that before. I don't think there was any true care taken during his service at all.

I don't visit pet stores often and when I do, I tend to visit whichever one is closest to where I am at when I realize I need something. Hey! I'm just being honest. I also have several years of experience working at a pet store so you could say that my opinion is rather balanced out. This pet store is in the Lennox Center and its right on the corner near World Market and Nothing Bundt Cakes. There's plenty of parking out front and I was greeted right away. I came specifically looking for fish accessories and lo and behold that's the first department you see when you walk in. My beta fish Tito was well over due for some new rocks and plants. After browsing around a while I found everything I needed. I was really surprised to see saltwater fish in the tanks. The reptile tanks were also very clean and all the animals appeared to be super healthy. I got a solid looking water plant, a pound of rocks for the bottom of Tito's tank, and a natural looking rock décor for around ten bucks. I'd say that's pretty reasonable. The cashier was also extremely friendly and put a smile on my face. I believe her name was Jess and she was a sweetie. I can't wait to come back next week to get my niece and nephew a new pet beta. They're still pretty young so we need to start small.

Nice store with polite employees and a great selection of premium dog food. They only sell prescription dog food online as there is no in store vet. Darn.

Loving their new home!

I wanted shrimp for my freshwater aquarium. I had a specific type in mind but, unfortunately, they were out of the ones I wanted. However, I didn't leave empty handed! I called before I went in to see if they had want I wanted. They didn't, but the girl on the phone listed several other kinds so I decided to stop by anyway. She was very helpful and inviting over the phone! Impressed! When I arrived, no one knew that I called. I thought maybe I called the wrong location since who else calls about shrimp...? Nope- I called the right place. Weird. Anyway, even though my call was somehow forgotten, I was greeted and helped by a wonderfully helpful employee! She was AWESOME. She's the only reason why I gave this location a full five stars. She answered and knew almost every question I had! I trusted her judgment and opinions 100%. I ended up buying two bamboo shrimp and some other items. There was a point where the employee didn't know the answer and asked some kind of supervisor (I assumed). The supervisor lady seemed miserable. Like she totally hated her job. Didn't smile. Wasn't friendly. Just seemed grouchy. What's weird is the cashier was the same way! The cashier barely said anything and looked like she was about to cry. Girl, you okay? I mean I get it- we all have bad days, but.... you work in a pet store.... if you can have bad days in a pet store, you might need an antidepressant... BUT the amazing young woman who helped me, kudos, girl! I love my purchase!

Petco is a chain so I don't expect that much from it. It's got lots of cats and dogs of course. They also have the smaller animals who die months after you buy them. It also has grooming services. The employees are good depending on who is there. I recently came in to buy a few toys. It was nothing that special. They were too expensive for the quality. It also had some pretty uncaring employees. They are unable to answer simple questions like what shouldn't you feed this animal. It's probably better to do most of my pet shopping elsewhere. There are some employees who do really care about animals. It's the others who make it suck. They probably have never had a pet of their own so they don't know anything. I would stop at some other pet store before Petco. It's better to shop at the local stores anyway. There are other stores with better quality products at better prices.

Dropped of my one dog to get groomed, clipped nails, and and have his under-coat thinned out to prevent so much shedding.

We adopted our dog from ASPCA recovery center and she had quite a few behavioral issues. She was…read morenippy, barking and jumping a lot which actually scared me since we have little kids. After working with Alex, we realized that her biggest issue was that she was "over-excited". Alex recommended her to be on anxiety medication which we found was VERY helpful and needed. He also explained to us how to monitor her levels of excitement by using commands and waiting for her to calm down before she became jumpy, nippy and barking. We also realized that we needed to use a muzzle when new people came in and around our 2 year old to make sure she's not nippy with them. All this and the commands gave us huge relief. We had 4 sessions with Alex and have had her for 3 months and we feel so much better. We definitely recommend Alex. He knows what he's doing and he's so kind with the dogs.

We cannot recommend OOTW dog training (Alex) enough! We adopted a ~1 year old from the shelter. We…read morewere not used to a large/powerful dog; especially one with a high prey drive and reactive behaviors. We were in over our heads and stressed out. In less than a month with Alex, we have learned so much, and have come such a long way. We learned multiple commands, walking on a head collar (simply because that was the safest choice for us). Most importantly in my opinion, we've learned how to keep our dog safe, others safe, and how to help her interact properly with other dogs and people. We still have a lot of work to do, but with Alex's guidance we are confident in our ability to be successful. Alex is INCREDIBLE with our dog, but more than that, he has helped us humans learn what to do, too. He's been so supportive of us! The group walks are an awesome option to further help us practice what we're learning and help socialize our dog. Alex has also been very accommodating with us and our needs. We highly, HIGHLY recommend Alex/OOTW Dog training. I truly don't know what we would've done without them! I included a picture of our dog working hard on interacting properly with guests; while also working on sitting politely while we eat

They really have a special touch here!! My dog is pretty anxious when it comes to grooming. First…read morevisit and he did beautifully. They were able to do everything requested - wash, dry, ear clean, nail trim and anal glands. I came back to a happy, non stressed dog! To give some context- - my dog hates nail trims where he yelps before you even start. They were able to do all nails - he doesn't mind ears touched but forget about cleaning - usually need 3 people to hold him for anal gland expressions- groomer (Jordan) said he didn't even make a peep Also they don't use muzzles! I love that especially bc my dog isn't trained for muzzles and I wouldn't want him in one just for grooming. Best way to get ahold of them is text message imo. They're a small business- support them!

Thankfully, my boyfriend recommended I go see Miss Sara. I don't like car rides and I ain't too keen on meeting new folks. My mommy was thinking I was gonna wild out. But Miss Sara and Miss Jordan are such good cuddlers and soothed me so well, I was super good and not nervous at all! I had some mats in my bum, an overgrown nail or three, and a lot of hair in my ears. Miss Sara was on it and told my mommy I may need an antibiotic. She really looked after me. I'm tired but I love how really soft and fluffy I am!! If you want more than a "groomer", then you have to ask your humans to take you All About the Dogs! It's the best place ever!!

Best dog training, boarding and daycare in Columbus!…read more First impressions are everything, and when stepping into All-Purpose K9 facility you don't hear dogs barking - all is calm. I've never experienced this at another dog daycare before! I was elated that all dogs were not crammed together and had space, along with the trainers being close by. My German Shepherd Husky mixes have loved learning all that Paige and team have put in front (more like to the side ) of them. Their controlled walking has been a night and day difference, especially when there are other distractions around. We've continued to work on everything that we have learned; heel, sit, place, and come. The individual one on one training sessions after boarding for 3 weeks has been amazing, as it has been a good transition to work on things at home. Reach out to Paige and All Purpose K9 today!!

Coming from someone who…read morehated to even scold their dogs and always took the treat treat route, I have seen what K-9 training and discipline mean and it matters when the chips are down and your dog must obey or they or you get injured. Was there and this saves lives. I am so grateful. Also they do a SUPERB and reasonably priced groom. My Pyrenees mix was blowing her coat so badly, tufts all over. I looked like tarred and feathered just sitting around (Reminder to self, why I never had long white furred pooches before). Now her coat is totally deshedded, smooth , and so silky and NO white fur all over the place. This is after two other groomers did her and, if my black sweatpants was any evidence, utterly failed.

Since I live and work downtown, it's really nice to take him to a place that's only a four minute drive! They have a spacious parking lot and it's super easy to get him in and out. The facility is awesome! They have a little store just inside the entrance and behind that is their boarding area which is in front of the daycare parks and next to the grooming station. You cannot beat the prices and service here. I was going on a last minute out of town trip and needed boarding services and they allowed me to bring Dozer in before they opened. They were so gracious to work with me. I loved watching him on the cameras. He had a blast playing with new friends and running around. Their outdoor area is awesome! It's turf so Dozer's grass allergies weren't agitated. I learned that they clean it regularly and that it has a draining system. Very cool! I was so comfortable leaving my little man there and I know he had a great time! Their grooming is awesome too! Their prices are so good and they really took care of my nervous guy. He left looking and smelling fresh! I can't recommend this place enough! And they're open 365 days a year! If you're looking for daycare, boarding or grooming services, this place is the best - hands down!
