PetSmart in Hot Water Over Dead Dog, Birds and More
Is PetSmart too big to do a good job with live animals of any kind? That’s the question that comes to my mind when I read the following stories.
One PetSmart let a dog there to be groomed get loose and then get out of the store and killed. Now it comes out that PetSmart employees are performing rabbit neutering without appropriate veterinary procedures and they have scads of dead birds.
Now I have nothing against PetSmart personally. I buy dog clothes and some treats there. I’ve had good experiences with having my furbabies groomed at PetSmart. But as I read these reports from the site PetSmartkills and Born Free USA/Animal Protection Institute I really have to wonder about PetSmart’s ability to handle animals. Maybe they need to take a long, hard look at their procedures or even having live animals and services in the stores that can’t manage to hire capable staff.
Judge for yourself as you read through the following information.
Thanks to Brenda for barking in this site, PetSmartKills.com. This site was established because of a tragic incident in which a dog got loose from a PetSmart groomer and then none of the employees seem to have cared. The dog subsequently got out of the store and was killed by a car. Horrible!
Petsmart Killed a Houston Family’s beloved dog
The Cohn’s took their beloved dog Max to a Houston Petsmart to get groomed for their annual holiday photo shoot. Instead of picking him up all fluffy and ready for his close up, they were left with the devastating news that Max has escaped and been killed in an accident.
The Cohn’s have decided to set up this website in memory of Max, to speak out about this horrible incident. They want others to know about PetSmart’s polices and business practices and to be warned.
Born Free USA/Animal Protection Institute is asking everyone to contact PetSmart and ask them to stop selling live animals altogether. I’ve asked PetSmart managers why they sell live animals at all. What they tell me is that PetSmart top brass believes that people want to see live animals in a petstore. To their credit, PetSmart does not sell dogs or cats and actually allows rescue groups to showcase their pets needing homes. Kudos to PetSmart for that! But PetSmart, maybe its time to consider not selling birds and hamsters as well.
PETsMART Again Linked to Mistreated Animals
Published 01/23/08Recently Born Free USA united with Animal Protection Institute alerted members to the discovery of diseased birds in 23 PETsMART stores that were linked to a distributor in Florida that mass-produces birds for PETsMART.
Now PETsMART is in the news again for allegations of animal mistreatment at one of its major animal suppliers. A story that aired on the Today show revealed appalling conditions that birds, rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters and other small mammals are force to endure while used for breeding or awaiting shipment to PETsMART stores. Video footage shows sick and injured animals tossed in garbage cans and rabbits being neutered without proper veterinary protocols. View the Today show segment here.
Born Free USA is once again calling on PETsMART to discontinue its sale of birds and other live animals. You can let PETsMART know that you won’t be shopping at its stores until live animal sales cease.

Stop bashing the company as a whole for the stupidity of a few. The dog’s death is tragic, but the same can happen at any groomer’s shop. As for dead birds, well let me instruct you in a little bird knowledge. Birds bred in captivity for sale don’t always survive. It’s the same for fish and other would be pets as well. Out of shipment of 25 birds as an example you will lose some. Birds are also very suseptible to temperature changes. Birds don’t have the life span of furred pets, especially parakeets. In the wild they may live longer but as pets the don’t because they are incapable of regulating to our crazy climate both indoors and out. So I would suggest before you bash anyone you get the full facts of the situation. I used to work for a petshop and it was common to lose fish and birds because unlike a furred animal they don’t travel well nor can they handle sudden changes in temperature. As for these animal rights people, they just want to stir things up because they want to put an end to breeders, importing of exotics, and anyone who doesn’t spay or neuter and adopt from shelters. I for one have had shelter pets and let me say that not all have been good pets. Shelter pets are a gamble, you take a chance of them fitting in or not. You don’t know what the previous life was like and how they will react in tense situations. Some do fine other flip out and bite. So get the facts before you condemn anyone.

I appreciate your defense of PetSmart. I made of pointing out that PetSmart does many good things and I shop there. And yes, birds and small animals don’t have the lidespan or hardiness of larger animals.
If you watched the Today Show segment, the problems at the PetSmart they revealed had more to do with lack of concern for appropriate protocols and the animals themselves than just the fact some animals died. And yes, this may have been a few PetSmart employees.
There are many good employees but the problem is whether or not a corporation as large as PetSmart CAN effectively train and oversee employees handling live animals. Max may have been only one dog but if you read the account of the incident it shows a screaming lack of managerial oversight. Besides, one dead dog due to employee disregard is one too many. Would you say its okay for a human daycare to lose a child who then got killed in traffic? I would hope that we would all be calling for the closure of that daycare!
So I ask again, is PetSmart too large to effectively and humanely handle live animals?
I agree as a business owner, just like any company, PetSmart should be held liable for their actions and the actions of their employees when they are on the job. From what I’ve read, it seems the local PetSmart headquarters won’t even take their calls. They were told to have an attorney represent them. That’s not how it works PetSmart it’s the other way around. If you don’t want to talk to the Cohn’s you should have YOUR attorney contact them. PetSmart could be doing a much better job of handling this matter.
I definitely do not know all the facts of all this but I do know that incidences like these are the reason I don’t like to take my baby anywhere that I have to leave him. ESPECIALLY when I don’t personally know the people I am leaving him with. Call me paranoid, whatever lol, it’s just hard for me. Hearing stuff like this is hard for me. I remember hearing on the news a while back about a grooming business that went to neighborhoods in a truck or something and groomed people’s animals in a little grooming room in the back of the truck. Turns out when you gave them your animal and they closed that door, they were in there torturing your pet. Sick people man, this is why I hate leaving my baby with strangers, even for a few hours.
I love Petsmart, but will never get any of my pets groomed there again, Last time when we went to get my dogs nails clipped ( a few months ago) she came out with signs of being hung, they put her up on the table ( which we later found out that they arent supposed to do that when they are clipping nails) and we asked the trainer there if we should take her to the vet and the trainer tried to convince us not to, but we did and they told us that it looks like she had been hung or something that could have stopped her breathing, because she was, drooling alot more than she usually does, she was panting which is VERY rare for her, her eyes were blood shot red and she was alot more avtive than she usually is. I will still visit petsmart but wont get her groomed there
Hi Joy. Not to defend PetSmart per se, but if you watch the Today story carefully, you’ll note that an employee of PetSmart is not the one spaying rabbits. That is an employee of the supplier, Rainbow Exotics, which is an independent company. PetSmart absolutely must investigate and stop buying from that company if this turns out to be actually happening; but I think you have a responsibility to note that Born Free USA is not completely stating the facts correctly.
Personally, IF I were to take my dogs anywhere for grooming, you can best beleive I would stay there …. maybe at a distance so my dogs would be calmer but I would stay there.
But you are right, you cant blame Petsmart as a whole, but at the same time, they should re-evaluate their staff and their capabilities.
My heart goes out to the family!!!
While I do not appreciate the sale of birds and rodents at their stores, I am a rescue volunteer and the ability for us to have our rescue events in their stores, ALL across America, is truly something to take note of. While ANY escapes from the grooming salon is inexcusable, I believe some of the blame can be placed both on the groomer(s) and on the owners. Some dogs simply are not trained nor socialized for grooming, and the blame for this lies on the owner, no matter how experienced nor savvy the groomers. I have used Petsmart grooming for my rescued dogs for many years now, and I have been nothing but satisfied.
I believe a deeper look should be taken at the individual competence of each groomer and bather, in each salon. I have read of the training each grooming salon staff member must go through, as far as salon maintenance and dog handling, and maybe this part of their program needs to be re-evaluated.
I have noticed some salons to be built a tad better than another, such as a better barrier door, or a door that only opens to the inside of the salon, instead of out.
I think before blame is placed upon an entire company, factors such as these should be looked at as far as the one guilty store goes, not an entire company. I know the staff of the Petsmart grooming salon I use would be offended, and that salon has passed all of my personal requirements for safety and staff competence.
I do not think that all Petsmarts are bad. when Iread the article it made it sound like every petsmart no matter where it is located is bad. I take my furbabies there all the time if nothing elese but to walk around the store. My vet is located inside Petsmart. As far as grooming goes I will not take my babies there b/c the last time I did it was a horriable experiance for the 1 dog that I have. I have Bichon that I keep combed and brushed out. I had taken my baby to be groomed there and the groomer instead of calling and saying the dog was matted up very badly , which he wasn`t, took it upon himself to shave the dog down to his skin. It was a very traumatizing experiance for te dog and I was horrified when I picked him up at what he looked like. I have since found a groomer that I trust and is very good with the 2 dogs that I have. However b/c of that experiance at that 1 petsmart I will not take my dogs there to be groomed. Having a dog groomed there is 1 thing and the groomers should be held responable for what happened but to make it sound like the store oin a whole is bad is wrong . Like I said not ALL Petsmarts are bad. Just b/c 1 store messed up does not mean the store on a whole is a bad place.Yes I had a bad experiance with the Grooming part of the store but other then that I fell that the store on a whole is a good store.
Like many posters have said, PetSmart is not a bad company. PetSmart does many good things like allowing rescues to show dogs and cats, funding animal charities, etc. Even the in-house vets have been very helpful in counteracting last year’s lies that only a few pets were affected by the recalled foods.
All that said, the good name and trusted brand status of PetSmart is being deeply threatened by some bad apples in their grooming operations and the corporate connections to disreputable animal breeders.
PetSmart corporate managers need to take a long, hard look at their procedures. Maybe they need to set up more stringent grooming shop protocols. Maybe they need to require mandatory inspections of all facilities from which they buy live animals. But whatever they do, PetSmart cannot afford to simply try to deny their way out of culpability.
We all want to see PetSmart grow up and fix the problems. I hope their corporate leaders are smart enough to realize they have enough public goodwill to accept their apology and open admission of changing their ways. Then we can all go back to saying more good things about them.
You cannot blame one incedent on the company its self, I am sure that the groomer did not let the dog loose purposefully… it was a horrible accident that could just as easily have happened anywhere PetsMartt does too much good for shelters and rescues to bash them like this… they hold adoption events for local shelters,,, and raise TONS of money for the same shelter with picture events and other fundraisers.
I think part of PetSmart’s problem is that they require a bird breeder to supply an entire region of stores. I know this because we used to allow our cockatiels to breed. My husband inquired at our local PetSmart, and they told us we would have to supply the entire Southeastern region with cockatiels. We were only looking to place 10 birds. We ended up finding great homes for them by networking with friends which was a better solution anyway.
Requiring one breeder to supply all of those birds creates a situation similar to a puppymill for birds. Why can’t each local PetSmart contract with local breeders if possible? We have a bunch of reputable bird breeders in our area. This would negate the need for shipping, and reduce deaths from shipping. Also, not all of the birds PetSmart sells are short-lived. The average cockatiel should live for at least 10-12 years, and some can live over 20 years.
I don’t go to PetSmart for anything but bones, an occasional replacement for a sweater or leash, so I believe pets should not be sold anywhere but a licensed breeder, or shelter . Animals are considered property and if harmed either by neglect, ignorance or abuse, are replaced for their monetary “worth”. I certainly don’t advocate that law, but until the law is changed, if animals are lost due to neglect or negligience, then PetSmart or anyone else will just throw them away and collect more. I say let’s change the laws and ask PetSmart to help!
I no longer use PetSmart groomers because they just can’t seem to remember that my female German shepherd absolutely hates the dryer (even though its in her file – I know, because I’ve seen it). Its also in her file that she should be towel-dried only, and that I’m perfectly okay with her being damp when I pick her up. Instead, I would always hear how they had to muzzle her and fight to get her near the dryer. The PetHotel people, on the other hand, are great. Both of my dogs love staying there, and they never use a dryer on my girl if they give her an exit bath. Granted, there are a couple of idiots working in the PetHotel, but they are far outnumbered by skilled and experienced employees.
Having said all of that, and having read about what happened to Max, I really think PetSmart corporate is ignoring what needs to be done, both for Max’s family and for their customers. I work at a small site of a large corporation, and even though we receive a massive amount of training (ethics, safety, etc) every year, there are still people who chose to ignore or break the policies and procedures. The only way a corporate office can resolve this type of problem is to continue to provide training and to remove the people who don’t follow the rules.
First they ban all quote-unquote “bully breeds” (even the smallest ones like French Bulldogs have been deemed inherrently aggressive by them) and select male dogs from their “doggy day camp”, a bit later down the line they refuse to recall poisonous dog food, later still they still carry tennis balls that contain amounts of lead toxic to even dogs, and now this? Honestly, the more I read about the company the less I want anything to do with them even remotely.
“a bit later down the line they (PetSmart) refuse to recall poisonous dog food”
We’re getting off track here… and mistating facts… PetSmart pulled the foods involved in the Menu Foods recall, and updated the list of pulled merchandise daily. I personally witnessed them refunding purchases with no receipt or proof that the items were purchased at PetSmart.
Banfield, very often decried as a substandard vet operation, was foremost in reporting a large pattern of animals sickened by the recalled food, in excess of 900 nationwide.
Winston was put into acute renal failure by Nutro food manufactured by Menu Foods and purchased at PetSmart. PetSmart and Banfield covered a major part of his initial tests and IV fluid treatment in-hospital. I am happy to report that Win is still with us today, abet suffering from a now chronic case of renal failure. Thank you Dr. Mullens and the staff of the Schererville, IN. Banfield.
Yes, PetSmart animal care and grooming policies and procedures need an overhaul, but let’s be careful with the facts.
My 7 month old Afghan, Lea, stopped breathing Saturday afternoon (.3/29/08) Our primary veterinarian clinic was closed, so I thought it best to drive to PetSmart on Park Road in Plano, Texas. This is very close to my house and has an attached veterinarian clinic. While driving, my wife performed CPR as best as she could. I ran into PetSmart and asked if anyone was available in the clinic and they said “yes”. I ran into Banfied’s clinic and no one was there. Apparently, they closed early for the day. Therefore I asked an associate for the nearest animal ER clinic. He told me SE corner of Parker and the Toll way. I placed Lea in our SUV and drove to Parker and the Toll way, while my wife performed CPR. I found a veterinarian clinic on the corner, but no animal ER room. Needless to say, Lea died. Had I received correct information, she may have lived.
I have several recommendations:
• All Banfield locations should remain open during posted hours.
• All PetSmart locations should have precise knowledge on the nearest pet ER centers and veterinary clinics.
• All PetSmart employees should know how to perform animal CPR.
• All PetSmart locations should have a defibrillator available for emergencies. Keep in mind many customers bring their pets into PetSmart stores while shopping.
My wife and I are saddened by the loss of our dog as we tried everything to save her and feel better assistance my have resulted in a different outcome.
I contacted PetSmart, but they have not been responsive.

Petsmart is lacking in emergency protocol. My puppy got bit during puppy school by a cattle dog whose owner did not have him properly restrained. My puppy was laying on the floor and the dog just lunged at her for no reason. The dog had caused previous problems in class and I thought I had enough space between my puppy and the cattle dog. Instead of offering to have my puppy checked, my concerns were dismissed by the trainer as the puppy’s head was not even wet. When blood started appearing, the trainer said it was a nail scratch and if it was a bite wound it would look like a puncture wound. After leaving the store, I found another wound and went back in and spoke with the store manager. The manager said he was not responsible and that two previous owners whose dogs fought tried to make him responsible when their dogs fought. He offered me free ointment and said he would talk to the trainer and call me. It’s been several days, and I have yet to receive a phone call. Proper protocol would be removing these aggressive dogs from class, offering to have my pet checked at Benecol immediately, and a followup phone call from the manager. After spending alot of money at Petsmart already between food, toys, grooming, and puppy school, sadly I won’t be back. My fear of these aggressive dogs would overshadow any joy my visit would bring.
Wow, there is alot being said on here. I dont think I can get this all in but lets try. First I know that the petsmart where I live if your dog is bit inside the store you are sent right away to the vets even after hours they have a vet for you to go to. I have seen the petsmart here go out of its way to try and help others, however you cant expect to run in with a problem and have just a random employee know how to care for your dog. The employee sent you to a vet, maybe that was the only vet they knew of near by and figured they could help you better. Each petsmart employee is trained in thier area you were asking a floor associate to do a banfield job. There is proceedures you have to go through to work there. Besides what if he did do cpr and your dog died. You would still hold him responsible for the death because of your anger. it is hard to loose a pet. They are a family member to us. We want everyone to try the hardest to fix the problem and when we cant we blame whoever we can. Now adays if you try to do cpr on a person they can sue you! It is so stupid these laws but worse off is to make someone feel bad because they cant save our loved friends. However you did bring up a good point and I think we should see into getting cpr certified for pets. our petsmart does not have a banfield. However our manager worked at a vets. Now if you watch the movie. You will see that petsmart sent out a letter saying how disturbed they were about what they saw and are going to investigate it. Lets give them the benifit of the doubt since they do try to help animals. They dont sell dogs or cats the adopt them out to good families. yes they sell animals but I noticed that every time one is sick at ours you will see the associates caring for it. There was a bird that got loose. It was one that was not very friendly they said but instead of harming or saying it was bad they caught it and found a person that loves birds and found it a home (adopted it out). Virus can start anywhere. I know of people who have gotten sick but hardly ever go anywhere. Now if the virus is caused by a critter that you had just recently bought from the store then there should be some compensation. Now I dont know about all petsmarts but mine take in all types of dogs. The only one they said they do not take in are Wolf breeds, When questioning why they said because unlike dogs the rabies (WHICH ARE REQUIRED FOR EVERY GROOM OR BATH) are immune to them. Ours takes in french bull dogs. We dont have a doggy hotel at ours, but they did pull food and refused to sale it. I havent heard anything about them selling tennis balls with lead in it. Ours has files of what all has been done to a dog. If the dog is matted they are supposed to call and tell you. I can see how someone would get mad by them not doing that. Our grooming salon has the employees come out and check your dog before checking you in to the system, They feel the dog for anything. If they find a matt they let you see it and show you how to avoid matts. I was told they do this so they dont have to call you later to say oh we found this or that. If there is a note in the file they are required to read it and make sure that on the sheet they have us sign, it is in BIG BOLDED LETTERS that if the dog has seizures, Skin allergies or whatever else. There should be no need for them to have to dry your dog completely if you said for them not to and you dont mind it wet. PLus there is kennel driers that can be kept on certain breed dogs that should help dry the dog they are low sound and low air. Most dogs fall asleep to it. Ours may offer that one an express groom where it goes straight through that way after the bath and towel drying it can go home to get more comfortable there. As far as different local breeders there is a requirement that petsmart must go through. I think it would be great to get local breeders involved but the protical is for each of those to be certified, safety certified and if any come in sick there is more certifications going on. There should be no person to over looks something. Petsmart is suppose to be there for the animals. I guess I lucked out. Ours has about eight groomers or so and I found one that I just stuck to. My dog is always happy when he sees her and she is always happy when she sees him. She knows his and my name which is nice. Not only that she tells him how happy she is to see him and that she gets to play with him for a bit until mom returns. When I return I peek in to see her working on my dogs at times and he is always licking her and then standing still. I can see her talking to him. It is ncie to see that a groomer loves my dog as much as me. She always says bye to BOTH of us. Now I am sure the other groomer was very upset about the dog getting loose. Yes there should be alot of supervisions. Accidents happen to even the best of us. I am sad to hear that he did not make it. that is the hardest thing to hear that a member of our family is gone. I have been blessed to find a good groomer and it just happens to be at petsmart. I hope that they trained the people during that accident better. I know the standards have changed. Even at ours since I have seen them not only come check my dog all over before entering him into the computer but she grabs a lead of hers and slips it on him first thing and walks him back. The door here is where you have to push it open to go in and pull it open to go out. They have a huge window for you to watch to see if there is any cruelty going on. Yes the bath is in the back but the grooming is up front. like I said I have came in and peeked but I never seen anything I would be disgraced about. I have seen the girls in there pet my dog as they walk by and my groomer has even played with her. The lead never seems tight and she is always talking to him. I just appriciate how she treats him. I know she would be devestated if anything should happen and that she treats him just like he was one of her own. I like petsmart. I think just like other things everyone tries to find something wrong and starts to bash. I mean in this day in age if you wear the wrong color, or if you are tall or short or fat or thin, or if you have a cat and not a dog or a dog and not a cat we all judge others. And we dont just judge we take that one person and make them into a million and accuse all that are short or all that are tall. Instead of judging we should try to help to fix the problems. find solutions….not just saying oh you shouldnt do that but instead say. Oh hey why not try doing this instead I think this is a safer way of doing things. Maybe we can have volunteers go out and show that rainbow place the proper way of doing things. Or maybe petsmart can have a safety seminar and invite customers to join so not only are the associates learning but the customers are as well. I think the first seminar for all should be on Safety and CPR for animals
I am an employee at a Petsmart. I work in the Specialty section of the store that directly deals with small animals, reptiles and birds that we get from the breeders. To be honest, I have always been an animal lover, but the way the company is run disgusts me. I’ve only been working there for about six months, and I am already looking for a new job. The guinea pigs we get from the breeders are sick with ringworm most of the time, my manager was hired with only the knowledge of a few animals, and still has no clue as to the proper care of most of the animals. I have a turtle that I have saved from our “sick” room, because my store manager was going to euthanize her, rather than trying to adopt her out. If I work there much longer, I am going to end up with so many more animals. Our company buys so many of them at a time, they get territorial and end up getting in fights, and getting sick and stuff. I believe Petsmart should go back to just carrying dog food, and not carrying anything else except for pet supplies, not pets. It is a huge corporation that doesn’t care about anything but profits, whether it has a heart beat or not. I am still livid about my turtle situation as you can tell.
just a little 411. petsmart doesn’t sell rabbits……
Umm, In quite the predicament. I’m speaking on behalf of my sister and brother in law. My sister a week ago, took her dog, Petey to Petsmart, when he came home he was never the same. He began to vomit profusely, not drink, not eat, lay there still. My sister took him to the vet two two times after that, second visit was diagnosed with colitis and then dies a week after going to Petsmart. How does a perfectly healthy dog, come home from a bath and dies a week later? Of course, no body wants to be blamed for the actions. According to Petsmart everything was done correctly.BULL Crap! What should she do? She’s left devastated, confused, hurt, broken hearted and dogless.
I recently took my small dog to Petsmart for grooming; dropped her off at 10am, received call from Petsmart 10:30am saying while cutting her nails they noticed she may have broken a blood vessel in her eye. Her eye was bulging and lids swollen, white part entirely dark red. Emergency vet said this could have been cause by strangulation or eye could have popped out and back in. Dog is currently on medication with steriod. Hopefully she’ll recover with no damage. We won’t know for a while. Manager reluctant to reimburse vet fees for testing her eye pressure, etc. I am still waiting for response from them. If you search internet Petsmart grooming accidents, you will notice many are due to “nail cutting”. They must fight with the pets and not let up – with the noose around their necks. This is a 4 years old healthy shih tzu when I brought her there.
When we took our golden retriever, Sunshine to the get groomed at petsmart we asked for him to have flea removal including a bath and a nail trim. I imagined this would be easy for them since sunshine was a puppy at the moment and didn’t have much body to be washed. When we got back about 2 hours (i think) later as they asked they we asked them is Sunshine gave them a hard time (we were just joking because Sunshine wouldn’t hurt a fly) they said he was non-stop growling and barking. At the time Sunshine just recently learned how to growl because we had a chihuahua who i guess taught him. However Sunshine only growled when he and Snoopy were playing and never at even strangers. If you were to steal Sunshine’s toys or bones he would just think of it as play. I thought strange of that but ignored it and just took Sunshine home. When I got home I took a shower and when I got out My daughter Laura was holding playing with Sunshine then noticed i got out of my room and said that she found a flea on Sunshine. I checked on Sunshine to see if this was true and found several fleas on him. The next day i bathed him myself and he was flealess. I might as well just bathe him at home than waste money on employees that seem to fool around most of the time rather than work. Not to mention one time we took my daughters hamster who seemed a little sick to their vet and she was completely dumb founded on what to do.
Sorry about my typos on my long comment *if , *then
In disagree with you judgements. PETsMART should no be held guilty for the employees mistakes. If one person in a company makes a mistake, you blame the person not the company. The employees are most likely teenagers who know nothing about animals who just want easy money.I agree with Yanet. Also some petsmarts do know what they are doing, are clean, and the animals are extremely healthy. I visit as often as I can, and everytime I go everything seems to be perfectly fine. Of course I have never ever had a problem with the,.
I am shocked once again. I have been taking my 5 year old, 50lb., black lab mix to Petsmart’s Banfield hospital for the last year in Conroe, Tx. and the same thing happened on Friday June 19, 2009. I still can’t believe he is gone. I live alone, no children and he was my buddy.
He escaped while they were getting ready to do his normal check-up. He ran right out the front doors onto I-45 inbetween FM336 and FM3083. I don’t know what else to say. His name was Ziggy and I would like to make a small memorial in his name at McDade park in Conroe as this was his favorite place to be. I can’t believe this.
I took my dog to petsmart for a nail clipping, filing and ear cleaning and they were great with my puppy and treated her well and watched out for her. They never left her unattended and they were very good with her. I think it does depend on the location of the store and the employees. THe one I go to is great!
