The customer service there is spectacular, Dustin whose the head of the fish department is very knowledgeable and knows what he's doing along with George and Hunter! I always go in with question and come out with an answer whether it's directly from them or they find out for me. They always have beautiful stock of fish in ranging Mollies and Guppies to Angels and Gourami's; they even have saltwater. Their tanks are always spotless with rarely ever having dead fish in their tanks! They have a nice small selection of live plants. Petco is the premier place in Chambersburg to buy fish!

Dustin and George are amazing at maintaining the saltwater section and are super friendly/helpful. I normally avoid big box stores when buying for my reptiles and fish, but the animals here are well cared for and Petco often has great deals. I've bought many fish and corals from here that have been thriving since the get go.

I just had my first meeting with Tony and our German Shepherd/Husky. He clearly has an excellent…read moreunderstanding of dogs and is not interested in using excessive force in his training methods. In that first meeting we discussed several behaviors and strategies to address them. I started working with my dog today and will meet with Tony again in 2 weeks to further hone my skills. I'm looking forward to working with him.

My husband & I were in DESPERATE need of obedience training for our 6 mo old pit bull puppy Yolo…read more Things were so bad that I wanted to get rid of him. So my husband started Googling and found Knucklehead K9. He called & left a msg and Tony called us back within minutes! He gave us all the details of his programs and pricing, and we setup an appt. From the first session Tony set the tone and showed Yolo who was in charge. We were astonished at how quickly he got our dog to listen with just patience, clear direction & treats! My husband and I needed the most training lol! Tony really understands dogs and how they think. He rewards with treats and praise for good behavior and corrects with firm direction for negative behavior. He really taught us how to be our dog's leader. We really liked his training techniques and learned SO much! He is very straight forward and does not sugar coat. It is truly about the owners being consistent and firm. If you're ready for a real dog trainer then Tony is your guy! But YOU better be ready to do the work! We are so much happier with our dog. He's a year old now and we can honestly say he's a GOOD DOG! Sure he's still a pup and has some maturing to do but he has done a 180 since we did the training. We love Tony!

This was just the experience I want for my dog…read more James is awesome. He's so attentive to what you need or want from your dog. My dog, Koa is a year old Belgian Malinois but unfortunately was not trained. She was rehomed to me. I desperately needed obedience training. James shared pictures and videos with me of the whole journey since I lived 3 1/2 hours away. I had no reservations about leaving her with him. I doubt she wanted to leave him to come home! This will probably not be the only training she will get from James. He's very open to this being a great experience for you and your dog. I highly recommend him for any training you need for your dog.

Sending our rescue Rottweiler to James was the best decision we've made. He helped correct multiple…read morebehaviors including jumping, leash reactivity, biting when being fed treats, stealing food off the table, and reactivity on elevators. After 5 weeks our dog came back his same goofy self just better behaved. He also trained our other dog, a 7 year old rescue, who had sever leash reactivity to not lung or bark on walks anymore. We couldn't recommend Controlled K-9 more!

I can't say enough good things about Brandi and Perry Bailey of RSK9. Their work has given my pup…read moreand I so much freedom and balance. Pebbles (blue heeler, 1.5 years old) would never listen to me, would not sit or lay still, and had a lot of other obedience issues that caused her to be stressed or confused. She was a TOUGH dog to train and I was concerned I couldn't find the solution for her to get basic concepts. This view has completely changed since working with RSK9's 3 week program. I would HIGHLY recommend them and their methods - you can tell they genuinely love working with dogs and it's made a huge difference in giving my dog the chance to find real rest at home. They send DAILY updates with photos and videos which was so nice. This isn't a regular class or something you just pay for; it's truly an investment that you and your dog will be using for the time you get to share together. Side note: it's worth doing 3 weeks versus 2 weeks. At the 2 week mark is when Pebbles really started to understand her marks and cues. From here there is so much more that can be refined and Brandi/Perry really capitalize on that threshold being crossed!

Brandi & Perry were amazing! Highly recommend working with them…read more We adopted a one year old mixed breed, Tuck, a few months ago. He's very sweet but started to get rambunctious to the point that my remote work felt challenging. He also started jumping or freezing when he saw other dogs on walks, and he occasionally barked or growled and men. We weren't sure if it was the start of aggressive behavior or just the result of a shelter dog that hasn't been exposed. After doing our research, we decided to do the 3 week behavior modification board and train program. We were really impressed from beginning to end. They shared a ton of information upfront, walked us through their facility (we opted to drop him off) and sent pictures and updates every evening. It became clear right away that they both have a very deep understanding of dogs, as well as a real respect and love for them. Tuck loved them! The best part was the "transition" day when Perry brought Tuck back and spent the day teaching us everything they've worked on together. We are first time dog owners so generally going in pretty blind. Perry gave us a 101 on dogs and the importance of clear and consistent communication. He talked through all of the layers of training and how/why it is effective. We felt this part was SO helpful for us to understand how to be better owners. Then we walked Tuck around the neighborhood with Perry guiding us and then spent time addressing indoor behaviors too. He was flexible and stayed until we felt comfortable with everything. This is a long review so the TLDR: finding a trainer is a big decision and investment so we wanted to get it right. Brandi & Perry were really incredible and beyond our expectations!! Truly worth every penny! Tuck has been doing really great at home and outside since being home. I've been able to work full days with him holding "place" on his cot, which would have been unheard of before!

The GOOD is they have a great selection of pet food and supplies, most at reasonable prices…read more The BAD is that the manager {Nichol) must not know the area, there is a Lowes not far from her store.

Absolutely amazing. We have a small miniature Schnauzer who had horrible fear aggression issues…read more She would lunge, bite, bark incessantly and, when she was in that panic mode, would not hear any command we were giving her. We talked to Jillian, the owner of Riverfront (and trainer). She came out for a free consultation and after speaking with her, we decided to send Ziggy to her house for 2 weeks and then have follow up lessons. It was worth every single penny. Jillian offers payment plans, too! Jillian's training has been a god send for us. Ziggy listens to commands, follows direction and we have a completely new dog in our home. We no longer have to be afraid to walk her when other people are out, we don't have to crate her for guests to come over and our lives are much less stressed. I cannot recommend Jillian and Riverfront Dog Training enough!

We recently finished with Jillian's home away program with our dog Kane and I could not be happier…read morewith our experience. Kane struggled with aggression issues with other dogs, and people. He was very inconsistent in following commands and we were always scared he would dart out the door to chase the rabbits in our yard. We were never able to bring Kane out with us for fear that he would attack someone. We were resigned to the fact that our dog was just always going to be like this. All of those worries are now totally behind us. Kane is a totally different dog. He is eager to follow commands and is no longer aggressive towards dogs or people. Last night he was in our yard with 4 kids petting him and he calmly sat in the grass and enjoyed the love. The transformation has been incredible and everyone who sees the progress Kane has made has the same jaw dropping reaction. It is unbelievable and such a dream to have Kane reach his potential like this. Jillian is kind and incredibly professional. She does everything she can to help you and your dog be successful. She treated Kane with so much respect and love, it was very comforting knowing that he was in the best hands possible. If you are even remotely considering pet training, please set up a meeting with Jillian. She is remarkable!
