My dogs cut stomach and groin area
Susie O.

Took my dog here for the first and last time. They shaved him down to the skin which no groomer has ever done. Yes my dog was slightly matted. I had the vet take off the big mats the day prior. But my dog has never looked so awful. They charged me 100 which is ridiculous and they cut my dog on his face and under his stomach. I should be refunded. Buyer beware.

I am not an experienced cat person but I have never cut my cat's nails short enough for them to bleed, let alone drawn blood from multiple nails on multiple paws. She has a vertical and horizontal scratching post but her nails do get long every ~2 months and I finally decided to take her to a groomer. I would have better photos but she did not want me touching her paws (she is usually more agreeable). This was her first and last grooming. For $90 I expected better and while the staff were friendly and welcoming, and it looks like a great place to buy treats for dog owners, I can't imagine doing this to animals for a living. I understand that cats are not 100% cooperative, but I would MUCH rather her have come back with untrimmed nails AND / OR have the staff tell me that she had bled, as opposed to me finding out when I got home... what the fuck. If your cat is more than just a commodity to you, I would recommend trying to find an ethical pet shop with ethical workers OR grooming them yourselves. Seriously.. you can fuck me over but not my cat. She is only a little bit softer, so I can't say her wack nail job was worth it.

Pardon the risqué photo. Around his groin area appears MANY broken blood vessels

Today we brought our 3 year old pup to Belmont Pet Shop to get his nails clipped. I had brought him before when he was very young and when Loretta was still the owner. I have to say how completely unimpressed I was today. My Pup is such a good boy, we have had his nails clipped a million times and never have had an issue until today! The young man came out and got our pup and brought him back. The young woman up front was super sweet and very chatty! The young man, very kind. My pup was apprehensive. He's a vizsla and usually goes to anyone looking for a friend. He went in back and we were looking at the parrot around the corner. We heard a bunch of yelps and barking that almost sounded like it was being smothered. We came around and our guy was done. We had then been informed by the owner that he had bitten her. Again- he gets his nails clipped very often, he's NEVER BITTEN ANYONE!! Ever! We cannot stress enough how apologetic we were that he bit her! Again, this has never happened so we were as shocked as she was. She told us she was fine and that she just had to clean her hand. We apologized profusely to them. They offered him a treat (which he never refuses and did) and again apologized. The young man suggested that we play with his feet to get him used to people touching him? Maybe we should, I don't know but it was still awful. Our pup was breathing with a choking pant. It was almost alarming. When we returned home, our poor guy ran away into the back yard when we noticed his poor belly, legs and "calf" area. I attached pictures for reference. I don't really know what happened, but I'm pretty sure a dog shouldn't look like this when they go for a nail clipping! I understand that their job isn't easy, but if the struggle was that much- I wish they had come out to get myself or my husband. We were on the other side of the wall. I wanted to love this place and how accommodating they were, and the staff were very kind...but with how we left, I can't. It has been almost two hours later and he is still shaking. Per order of his vet- we have to watch him tonight and if he is still lethargic in the morning- we have to bring him in to be assessed! I hope that this isn't how your pets are treated!

same thing on other ear

The pet store itself is great very helpful with discussing food but grooming horrible they shaved her down to her skin which has never been done by another groomer as well as cutting her behind her ears and a cut on her body that became infected

Cute birthday treats!

I have been coming to Belmont Pet Shop for years now. Under new ownership since last year their range of dog foods, treats, etc is great! They carry top quality food: Primal, Fromm and Acana to name a few. The staff is very friendly and helpful. I wanted to point out they have cute birthday mini cakes and cookies that are always so hard to find!

snacks!
Lee E.

My experience with BPS was pleasant and friendly. I was in awe and impressed by the Chew selection and the many gourmet foods and snacks available. I popped over for dog booties but, unfortunately, they only offer the rubber disposables. I'd never put those on my baby bcz the opening is too tight. Upon entry I was pleasantly overwhelmed by the selection and loved the set up. The associate was also very friendly and helpful. However, based on previous reviews it's unlikely I'd ever use their grooming services and will stick to food/snacks. I'm adamant about supporting local businesses and try to do so as much as possible, but my baby is my baby and I'm a mother bear when it comes to his well-being. I'll return for shopping only

I have two large dogs that can be quite difficult to handle. An extremely lazy, 100+ pound black lab who uses his weight against you. Brushing him at home can be difficult because he tends to lie on one side and refuses to move. The second dog, is an energetic, highly neurotic and anxious 90+ pound labradoodle who requires two groomers to be controlled. Both are sweet friendly dogs that can be quite a handful. The groomer that I had used for my dogs' whole life stopped grooming. Thus began the search to find the perfect dog groomers! And I found them! After taking my dogs here twice I have been inspired to write my first yelp review. Brian and Kaitlin have done such a wonderful job on my two boys! They brushed the lab out and got so much fur out that he didn't shed for weeks! The labradoodle got such a nice haircut! Both dogs smelled and felt to clean for weeks after the grooming! These groomers don't cut any corners. Upon first meeting Brian and Kaitlin, they presented themselves in a professional and friendly manner. I liked how the first thing they asked was my dogs name. As a pet owner, it showed that my dogs came first. I always get a little nervous leaving my boys somewhere new. But my mind was put at ease after seeing the groomers' initial interaction with my dogs. After having them groomed there, I will never bring them anywhere else! The groomers, owner and workers are extremely pleasant and helpful. The highlight of my trip was seeing the big beautiful parrot in the back of the store in his big, spacious cage, away from the hustle and bustle at the front of the store. I highly recommend Belmont Pet shop!

Third nail from the left (Completely SPLIT).

Two people were very helpful helping me with a gift card. Personal service you won't find online or in a big box.
