    If we're just talking about having a place to get all of your pet supplies, where you can actually take some of your pets inside the store, I'd probably give this a higher rating. But we're not. Petco is a place where you can also go to buy live pets and I have a real problem with the conditions in which these animals are kept. The fish are an overcrowded tanks far above the recommended population for the Bio load creates. At one location, Lancaster, I even saw a pile of dead goldfish inside one of the tanks. I get it, fish die and it's not always their fault. I have bought fish from there, center.street) that passed away within a week from a fungus. When I went in, and told them about it at first they didn't want to refund me until I mentioned that it died with a white fungus and then the aquatic center personnel had a knowing look. Later admitting that many of the bettas that were there had the same one. I chose not to get another fish from there and I went to the Keizer location instead where the aquatic manager said the same thing was happening with theirs yet they were still being sold. I recently went in to the Kaiser location to look at bearded dragons. I was devastated to see that there were too many in each small tank, far smaller than the recommended tank size. there was a sandlike substrate which is known to cause impaction in bearded dragons and the humidity was too high and the temperature far too low for the species. It was really difficult because I know the special needs they have for UVB and for heat and without meeting these standards they are at risk for metabolic bone disorders. this is not only uncomfortable for the animal but it adds an additional expense to the adopter. it breaks my heart that a place that touts itself as a leader in pets and pet supplies would encourage these sorts of conditions. I know it's not the staff's fault and that they can only do what they're told but corporate should have higher standards for animal welfare. The care sheet on many of these animals is incorrect, recommending enclosure sizes that are far too small. A goldfish should not live in a bowl. A betta needs more than a 2-gallon tank let alone the tiny containers they store them in. I understand there are limits to how they can store their animals with having so many, but if you can't do it correctly you shouldn't have as many. I think everyone would be understanding if they had fewer animals and housed them appropriately. This would also set an example for the types of enclosures and environments that these animals need so that they aren't adopted and placed in the exact same situations. I'm pretty devastated. When it comes to a pet supply store it has everything you need, But I certainly can't justify adopting an animal from them knowing how they'll treat the next one that occupies the cage.

    I was trying to give management an opportunity to speak with me before posting this review, but despite three requests for a store or grooming manager to contact me, I have yet to be contacted. I had the most horrible grooming experience at the Keizer Petco. After injuring my dog with an obvious clipper mishap, they contacted me to report I would have to pick my dog up as "he has an open wound and we cannot complete his grooming." I arrived quite concerned about my dog, until I saw him and his "open wound." It was fresh and clearly a clipper injury, the "professional" whom I trusted to groom my dog was no where to be seen, and another groomer went on to say "the injury was found while she was drying him." My poor dog was not only injured, his coat was butchered and he looks horrible. I am still in shock that my dog was injured and looks horrible. I asked to speak to a manager and was snapped at by the groomer, mind you I was very upset, this is after all, my fur family. I them called the store to get no support from the assistant Mananger. I requested a manager contact me and as of this evening, have heard nothing. Oh, they did say that the hack job and injury to my dogs leg was free of charge. Really?! I would have reacted all together differently had the groomer been accountable and honest. This experienced was absolutely unacceptable. I plan to contact the corporate office tomorrow. Shame on you Petco grooming! I gave one star because you cannot give a -5! Your canned auto response adds to your offensiveness

    I would leave a zero if I could. we used the boarding facility with dog training. We told her a dog…read morehad anxiety and what we really wanted was training everyday. My dog was taken into the boarding area which is nice enough with heated floors. As our dog was walking through the door her little dogs came charging at him (behind fencing) and Started our dog. Then our dog was put into a kennel surrounded by 3 other kennels and my dog freaked out. So we told her this wasn't going to work and she moved him to the other side of the room which was better for him. I wasn't so sure if this was a good place for him and told her if there was any problems to call us ASAP. We called her later to check in and she said he was fine. When we returned after 7 days we found out he had been stressed all week, had diarrhea and she didn't want him back. I asked her if had had any training or any exercise outside and she said NO. I also asked her why she didn't call us because I don't want my dog going through this - she said oh I didn't think you had anyway to take him!!!! when she knew our other dog was home and we wanted Marley to come stay and get training!!! So our dog was locked up for a week - stressed out . I told her I just want my dog now - when I went in the back he was back into the kennel that was in the middle of all the other dogs - the one that he was moved out of before. I'm guessing she didn't want to walk across the room to feed him. My dog is so messed up right now due to this abuse!!!! Btw the 2 times I was there while all the dogs were stressed (due to her little dogs) she never once tried to console any of them!!! I can't imagine her being a good dog trainer seeing how she treated my dog, or the lack of empathy I saw for the other dogs there. I suppose if you just want your dogs locked in a kennel this is the place to go.

    I took my pup here to get trained and he has learned a lot! Brenda uses the clicker training which…read moreI think is a great tool. I also think that the individual training classes are extremely beneficial. Since there aren't other dogs around, Brenda's able to focus on just my pup and the things he needs to work on. Side note - You'll need to practice everything you learn on your own to see progress!!!

    I think this will take me at least a day or 2 to write because there's just so much genuine good to…read morewrite about this place. We really stumbled upon this place via a home trainer we got who was positive reinforcement only (prior to that we were at hufdmans's - this will be important later). The positive reinforcement trainer though nice.. I felt wasn't equipped to help me train my 2 year old Belgian Malinois. Not very many people have experience training a high drive dog like malinois so that was the reason why I took my girl to Huffman's who specializes in working breed malinois. Anyways, after 8 sessions with Huffmans (who is a balanced trainer) and 2-3 sessions with the positive only trainer I was at a loss for a trainer that could actually help us with our Mal. *quick backstory* we rescued our Mal (Beatrice) from a rescue in Texas when she was 16 months old or so. She was found with 9 puppies who she took such good care of. Apparently she was "sad" after her puppy's were adopted out. She was transported to us from Texas (where perhaps I didn't give her enough time to decompress) and from then she showed a lot of leash reactivity. She was amazing while in the house but was super over the top when we were on walks in the neighborhood. At a loss, I asked our positive only trainer if they did boarding or board and training and he said he didn't but works very closely with a trainer who does. Cue in Merissa. I contact Merissa possibly minutes after, I tell her my situation and she quickly accommodates a meet and greet for us. We were leaving out of the country for 3 weeks so we needed someone we could trust. When I met Merissa I instantly felt at ease her super calm and cool demeanor made me feel safe. However I was still skeptical that anyone would be able to reform my dog. After 8 sessions with huffman's and 2-3 sessions with the other trainer, Beatrice was still pulling and lunging like crazy. This is not due to a lack of practice with me as the owner, I trained and did everything all the trainers told me to do everyday for 1-2 hours a day! So because of this I felt that Beatrice may only get better minimally. At drop off I meet Raine who did my intake. She was very friendly and efficient. Beatrice went to her easily, but I knew Beatrice wasn't reactive to strangers but dogs. After the first 2-3 weeks I was anxious because I didn't see very many updates about Beatrice from instagram or the FB page.. I voiced this concern to Kota the Admin for Paw and Hands and she quickly got me in touch with Charlee, Beatrice's main handler. First off, let me tell you HOW responsive Kota and Charlee are. Beatrice may not have gotten a ton of updates (I'm a helicopter mom, what can I say) but speaking to Kota and Charlee always put me at ease. Both of them were always transparent. Charlee reassured me that all the training I had previously was not for naught. My training with Huffmans made Beatrice a super confident dog but Beatrice had major control issues, she may have been over confident thus creating a know it all. My training with Lucid made Beatrice better at obedience, but on her time. When I told Beatrice to do any commands she knew them all but would take her very precious time getting into that command. After being at P&H her obedience was almost as good as the sport dogs - almost... she's got crappy genes from bad breeding but she's the ABSOLUTE best version of her she can be. At the go home session Charlee went through a ton of information I knew and a ton I didn't know. She told me how she'd be in contact with me and would be calling me in a few days. The fact that these trainers and admin staff are so dedicated to the dogs and the owners speaks absolute volumes. And the funny thing is, upon leaving the facility I left with the impression that Beatrice is (slightly) better but of course there will still be a lot of continued work at home (which I already expected, 2-3 hours of exercise, play and training a day - no problem I've allocated time specifically for this). When I got her home. OH MY GOD. I don't know if it's because it's her first day back but DAMN she's WAYYYY better than I EVER expected. I was FLOORED. She never left her bed stay during dinner, her recall was SECONDS, her heel was... incredible. I honestly felt like I had a sport dog. I'll give an update after Beatrice has settled but if this is how she'll be for the rest of the time at home, this dog is completely reformed. THANK YOU CHARLEE, KOTA and MERISSA... for literally everything, every second you put in Beatrice, all the love and handling, the extra effort to make sure she's her best version of her, THANK YOU.
