Dog FX offers an upmarket style of complete pooch pampering services along with doggy day care…read morefacilities, for that special four legged furry member of the family. There's obviously a demand for their services as they have been around for many years. Much like a puppy party service where all the smaller breeds of dogs can get together and socialise, no big breeds allowed. They can romp around all day long and maybe meet the love of their life, let's just hope there's no hanky panky! For the pet minding they charge $45 for the day or $10 per hour and there are other package deals available. Everything in store is labelled as designer' wear from the clothing to dog bowls, accessories, toys, bedding plus more and even the food would you believe. Pampering zone involves not only bathing but painting their nails, colouring the hair (for fun apparently), and get this 'mud baths' ! What the!! I suppose if I had a small dog and sometimes I wish I could shrink my GS to fit into my handbag, I may consider doing the same. But hey, if you're someone who doesn't have kids or grandkids or care for dogs more than little people then this may be just for you and your furry family. As a note there is parking around the back which is handy and much safer.

I took my dog Roger there 2yrs ago (approximately) I arrived…read more10 min early and walked in and sat down as i could hear the hairdryer.. Whilst sitting there I heard them aggressively saying " sit down " over and over... I wasn't aware they were talking about Roger at that stage.. Hairdryer stops and the owner said to the assistant " now i have to ring that bitch to pick up" Realising it was me I said " I'm here" Silence! She sent the young girl out who was embarrassed and started to tell me that Roger fell off the table!! He appeared ok and i left! Wow.. Mmm hence to say I never returned!!!!

We took our Labradoodle here for a wash & trim paying attention to the ears on the end & his paws…read more What we got back was a dog with no hair on his ears & the hair trimmed from his paws & 70mm up his legs & his head hair had been trimmed to make him look like a poodle, in actual fact he looked more like a monkey. As my wife picked up the dog & I only saw him when she came home & when we looked at what these people had done to our beautiful pal I was absolutely disgusted. I left it for a week & then went back to speak to the person in charge & she was adamant that she had said that they would have to trim all the hair from his ears, I was stood there & know what was said & it wasn't that, sadly she was neither contrite nor apologetic but had the nerve to ask me to use them again ...........I don't think so

Great price, great service, the come to you. Very happy customer, have booked in our next groom!read more

We've been going to Pet Universe since 2015, they have been absolutely fantastic. Our old boy has…read morereceived nothing but exemplary care, Dr Lee has been seeing him in particular and the amount of time and patience Dr Lee has spent with us has been fantastic. I've always felt that our pets health and welfare has always been put first, from the caring, friendly and attentive nursing/reception staff to the very knowledgeable and informative veterinary staff, Pet universe has quickly become the only place that we will take our pets. I can't recommend them highly enough.

Best vet surgery and team ever !!! Dr Chris and his team…read morehave been looking after our dogs for just under 10 years now, from puppy preschool to senior dogs they have been so wonderful and caring, we have followed every bit of their advice and our furry family have always been healthy and happy. Recently Poppy developed a rare cancer and has now passed away, we were inconsolable but comforted by how caring the team at Pet Universe were especially Dr Chris who took the time to call recently and see how we were doing and even sent flowers. We can't thank Dr Chris and everyone enough for the care we have always received and for the care we know we will get in the future - Thank you ! :)

I love that I can watch my dog get the full clip and wash and I also love that my dog is getting the doggie socialization that she needs as she is a bit shy and bit by bit I feel she is getting a tad more confident. Thank you so much for your wonderful help. Brooke & Peppa.

Pets Everywhere used to be called Northside Pets, so I'm not sure if it was a management change or…read morewhat but essentially it's got the same stock with not much change. They have exotic pets like snakes, lizards and other reptiles and also spiders - eek! I will not be anywhere near those things and it's a good thing they dont' sell Mortein as I'd be armed and dangerous with a can. It's a big shops and there's alot of pet stock under the roof with equipment, food, supplies and all sorts of weird pets and the norm and nfortunately they do sell kittens. But there are other furry creatures like rabbits and guinea pigs and if you don't want to get that close there's always fish.

This pet shop keeps birds in a way that isn't good for their health and welfare…read more I visited this shop about 3 weeks ago and there is a room where they keep the birds for sale. The room's cold, has a concrete floor and no natural light. Birds need natural full spectrum light in order for their bodies to make vitamin D and enable them to have the correct sleeping patterns. They should at least have full spectrum light bulbs. The room has parrots in triple-decker cages. The birds in the top and middle cages get artificial light, but the parrots in the lowest cages are living in deep shadow and it's distressing to see how these birds cope with this. The one sole occupant in the lowest cage has no tail feathers left and is continually climbing to reach the upper corners of its cage to try to access some of the light - anyone can see this is an anxious and unhappy bird. The room also contains box cages full of about 30 - 40 finches. The owners have only been bothered putting up the one perch for this many finches in a single cage. Every centimetre of this perch is used by the finches; when one bird moves they're all forced to move. The rest of the birds have to sit on the ground and would also have to roost on the ground at night. This is bad for their feet - birds need to be able to perch, especially at night when they roost. They're also forced to spend extended periods of time overnight on a floor full of bird droppings, obviously not good for their health. On a closer look at the cage there is a bracket to support a second perch. These people have clearly just been too lazy to bother putting in a second perch for such a high number of these birds. A friend told me he'd gone in there once and saw a pair of very young budgie chicks just sitting in the corner on the floor. They were clearly too young to have been taken from the nest but here were these people putting them into this cage without even adequate perching and trying to sell them before they were properly ready to leave the nest. The way the owners keep these birds shows no regard for their welfare and these people are denying these birds' the opportunity to engage in essential natural behaviors like accessing enough light, the ability to perch and the ability to avoid having to sit in bird droppings. Not good at all.
