They have a good selection of pet items at this location towards the right-side of the store, but it can get very packed in here. Unfortunately, it was hard to find a cart to use while shopping, and the noise level and lines weren’t the best, so it may be better to come with your pup during the weekdays when it’s quieter.

The park is well-maintained and has many walking paths and areas to let a dog sniff around and explore outside the dog park. My puppy and I relaxed together on hammocks by the sunflower field and later walked over to a big open field to run around (on a long lead still). You can hear trains and some city traffic in the distance when in the park, but it didn’t seem to bother my puppy. Will definitely be coming back!

I went on a weekend, and loved how there were so many pet supplies, toys, beds, etc. to buy for my puppy! Many were things you’d pay double for at Petco/Petsmart too. I brought my puppy with me in his bag and had him placed in the cart as I went up and down the aisles browsing throughout. Very peaceful and calm despite it being a Saturday evening, so it was a perfect place to have him exposed to more people.

If you are looking for a place to take your puppy for training, this location has an amazing class with Courtney who is so supportive and knowledgeable! I’m on my last week of class with her and can truly attest to her professionalism and eagerness to helping everyone in the class learn and understand their puppies. She knew everybody’s names on the first day without us even mentioning it, and she emphasizes bringing your dog “on their worst behavior” so there’s never any shame in your dog acting up in class. I will definitely keep coming back for the next level of training for my puppy 😊
