They have a nice selection on dog food and treats so we picked up some things for the pups as well. While husband was taking care of somethings I did explore and look at their reptiles and spiders. Blech! They were interesting and neat but....blech! The snakes were actually rather cute yet at the same time....blech! At the time, they didn't have any birds. They were cleaning and reorganizing but they normally have them. They also get bunnies. I almost took one home but I fear one of my dogs would be obnoxious about it and there is no need to stress a poor little bunny. The store was clean, employees helpful and knowledgeable, and they seemed to have plenty of variety of critters and products. The fish we purchased were all healthy and are thriving. I recommend!

It's a nice sized store- definitely much smaller than a place like pet smart, but the people working there seem to have a lot of knowledge about their products. They also adjusted the fit of the harness and collar to my dog, which was great. The prices seemed on par or lower than you would get at other pet stores. I also appreciate that although the store is located inside the spca, it's at the very front, so if you're just there to shop it's easy to access. I'm sure I'll be back when we need more pet products!

The inventory is always updated and fresh, but you can also trust that you'll find your favs and staples , too. The prices are good and, best of all, the proceeds to back to the animals in the care of the organization. Buying toys, treats, leashes, you name it, while giving back to homeless pets? Yes, please! I think this shop is a bit of a hidden gem because it's physically small and placed within the SPCA itself, but do not let that fool you! They have more than you'll ever need. I've gotten everything from an adorable kids' book to doggie life jackets to cat litter there and been pleased with the products, service and overall experience every time. And, even if you have a special request, they can still order it for you, just ask. The staff is very knowledgeable and can tell you about the use of each project (like gentle leaders and special harnesses and such) and really help you help your pets, not just sell you stuff. If you live in the Richmond area and have pets or friends and family members who love animals, this is the place to go for gifts and supplies.

I visited another highly recommended fish shop in the area and was highly disappointed and disgusted. I did review that shop today too. I really want to find some good shops near where I live instead of driving to my trusted old haunts in the Viginia Beach/Tidewater area. I found Azalea Aquariums on Yelp and saw it was close to where I was and took a chance. I got there 10 minutes before closing, but I live about 30 minutes away so I thought I might as well check it out, get the feel for the place, and come back later if I like the vibes and am interested in the stock. I wasn't planning on getting any live plants or fish today, but I have a new tank set-up to review for a company and I will need to stock it when it's cycled. I wanted a plan and was just hoping to window shop today. I walk in, and while it's not the cleanest or most professional looking shop, it was clean enough and the fish looked cared for. It had that worn-in, well-loved feel about it and even had a cozy cat napping on the bottom shelf of a tank. It had a saltwater side and freshwater side of the shop, which I thought was an organized way to present them and care for them. The lights were low and there was just one alley with tanks on either side which was a bit uncomfortable, but I could see all the fish easily. There were very few empty tanks and species names and prices were visible. I didn't see one floater or sick fish. I was impressed by the health of the fish. Even most of the bettas were in nearly full-color, which shows that they are not super stressed out. Five minutes after I entered, I was ushered out of the store by a woman who came from the back room; previously there was just a man helping a customer. I looked at my watch and it was 4:55; it was five minutes until closing. I didn't argue but said something like, "Oh, I thought you closed at five." She said she would get me something if I needed it, but they were closed. She passed by me in the aisle, went to the front door, then went back to the back without a word. When I got to the front door a minute later, sure enough it was locked. It was off-putting. I was 30 minutes from home and not easily able to get back anytime I wanted. I was interested to see what gravel stock they had, how healthy their fish seemed, and just get an idea of the species they carry. Another five minutes would have fully satisfied my whole reason for being there in the first place. She didn't even ask if she could help me. She didn't introduce herself and was wearing street clothes. The tanks could be maintained better, and while it wasn't as bad as the dump heap of a fish shop I visited earlier in the day, it did leave a sour note that I won't forget. I probably won't be back.

Let this be known:…read more Erica, the lady at the front desk, was completely unempathetic and tone deaf when it came to helping a customer who had just suffered from a very traumatic experience. I have no respect or tolerance for people or staff of any facility who are not understanding and rude to others who are going through a difficult time. The fact that this is the greeting face of your clinic is shameful and extremely unprofessional. I HIGHLY recommend that staff undergo training in regards to customer support and care because no care or support was shown when fees were still demanded from someone who had been suffering from a coma. Extremely, extremely disappointing and of poor quality and character. I don't understand how the clinic expects to retain returning customers when money and interests are valued higher than the well-being of their customers. It truly makes one question the world we live in.
