I would not in any circumstances recommend this pet store, A Place For Pets. Although they have a large variety of different animals and fish, including chameleons and several species of tarantula spiders as well as numerous snakes, they have an unclean and dingy store. The rabbits and guinea pigs were in a container with a home-made appearance, the sides made out of a clear plastic, and it had no lid or top at all. In the small animal section, the pets were crowded in make-shift containers, and I saw on my first visit an open litterbox filled with live mealworms lying on the floor, which I narrowly avoided stepping on. The next time I entered the store I went deeper into it, where I discovered the puppies, far in the back. They were kept in a wall of small wire containers. Some of the puppies cages were completely bare, without food, water, or a blanket to cover the wire bottom of the cage. They were charging about $800 for a puppy, and though most of the dogs were purebreds, for the same price that you can buy a show-quality dog from many professional breeders who have socialized and friendly puppies. Some of the puppies had runny eyes, and though I was right in front of them, none of them showed any reaction, not even moving. In the times I have been in the store, I have never seen more than two employees and was not approached by them. All in all, I was extremely unimpressed with the store and its quality, and I would not recommend it to anyone I know.
Pros: The store has a large variety of pets
Cons: There are too many animals; the staff cannot properly care for them
