This place also stocks animal costumes, collars and leads, pre-made mince, dry food, and pet food friendly desserts by the kilo. Other natural products such as pet shampoos and medicinal products are also available. The Pet Deli also supports local animal shelters which is also a good thing.

Or even for an animals owner it's kind of cool…read more They have everything you could need for an animal of any kind, especially heaps of dog stuff. A lot of their stuff is fresh food and they have heaps of cool and different treats. They are a little expensive compared to maybe making your own food but seriously, who has the time nowadays. When these people do it all for you. They also sell all the best brands of flea and worming treatments. The ones you usually have to buy from the vet or maybe a fodder shop. You can get them all here too. We have a dog with some skin allergies and I can get much better shampoo's for her from here than from a supermarket. They also give great advice on such things. They are starting an online facility for ordering soon as well so keep an eye on the website or their facebook page for an annoucement. Great specialty store!

Okay so revealing myself as the crazy dog lady since we got our second dog I can safely say this is…read moreone of the largest and best stocked pet general stores in Adelaide. Having an Italian greyhound means ALOT of money goes in to weird niche dog things the breed needs, one of which is a special tooth gel. Long story short I saved myself a good thirty dollars because this store is the only one in Adelaide that randomly carries it so five stars for getting in super niche things essential to particular breeds. But what REALLY impressed me was the knowledge the staff had, they let us know about the puppy school they host which was under $100 for five classes (something most other dog stores don't do), gave me loads of tips about introducing my two dogs, tips about the breed and best yet they didn't pressure me to buy any dumb little add-ons at the counter (because like all pet owners we spend our rent money on stacks of dog toys as it is). Thanks to the team there it will be our local! Bring your dog in too they give out free cuddles

How about one with feathers that you have taught swear words to? Even if it is a scaley one that likes to eat live rodents (don't we all), you will find all that you need to keep them healthy and entertained at Petstock on Main North Road. I am an animal person, in fact many have referred to me as an animal myself (Like a TIGER, rrrrooooowl!). As I write this yelp one of my Cats (Samurai) is actually dribbling on my leg, an yet I don't throw him across the room yelling 'fly supercat', that is just how much of an animal guy I am! I often drop in to Petstock on the way home to pick up some stupidly expensive (but scientifically formulated) cat food and also to tap on the many fish tanks! It is a huge store, encompassing everything from food, toys, living quarters (doghouses) and many things that you look at and think "who the hell would buy that for their pet....it would look great on me!" The employees are all very knowledgeable and pet lovers themselves, so they are quite able to help make decisions on what is best for your little fido, nemo or Rum Tum Tugga. Little prick just bit my foot.

The service is easily accessible, however as it is a child care facility it is best to phone and make an appointment rather than just turn up. They run a variety of classes for women, and you may get thumped by one of the self defence practitioners if you suspiciously just appear at the door, which is security locked any way. Their class facilitation, website maintenance and database development, fund raising and events, are all looked after by community minded volunteers. Even things like OHS, maintenance, cleaning, finance, promotion and pretty much everything is maintained by the participation and support of its members. In fact the only person on staff is Michelle Tsutsulis Coordinating Director. Her role is to make sure the funding streams continue and her income is maintained along with all the important relationships between community and funding bodies. The service provided is obviously invaluable to the community providing women with child care facilities as well as a place to call their own when they need some kind of security in the world and have been unable to find it within their family or home.

Animals have always had a bit of a thing for me, I think they recogise Awesomeness and want to be…read morearound it.....either that or it is my penchant for not wearing deoderant?! Either way, I have always enjoyed walking through pet shops and checking out all of the animals. Paws for Pets at Marden is small, but an enjoyable visit none the less. There really isn't anything super special about this pet store, other than it stocks most things you would need for your more common pets. They have a good range of pet 'accomodation' and some scratching posts for the kitties. I have tried them with my cats from time to time over the years, but I think they are snobs because they seem to prefer micro fibre suede or leather between their claws rather than tightly wound rope......bloody stuck up cats!

We used to come here to visit the white axolotl in the bottom right aquarium. We would sit on the…read morefloor and do interpretations of what this axolotl would say and sound like if we were to have a conversation with him. I decided he was a rapper, and described his 99 problems. My daughter took a different approach and discussed tea parties with him as if he was Princess Kate. It was a sad day when 'Kid Cudi' was purchased. I hope his owners are taking good care of him. This pet store always has cute puppies or kittens to fawn over when I'm grabbing some cat food, and they have a loyalty card program so my tenth bag of cat nosh is free. The man who runs it is friendly and helpful and always has good advice when you have a random help my pet question. We miss you still, Cudi. Good luck in all that you do.

So, I just wanted to update my review to say that after my first visit with my pup Igor, this vet…read morehas really followed through in making sure he was doing well. I had to return to get his little paw checked out for progress in healing. They then followed up with a phone call to check on the progress. I love this so much! But, the best part is yet to come. Not only looked after my little pup Igor so well, they sent me a Welcome Card and a complimentary gift pack offer. How nice is that? Check out the card in the photos on this listing. So sweet! This says a lot to me about how much they care about their customers. It's almost like welcoming you into the family. So excited to find a new vet that cares so much!

This is where I take my Blue Heeler puppy, Arthur, to get his checkups and I wouldn't take him…read moreanywhere else. The veterinarians who work here are really compassionate friendly people and they are fantastic at their jobs, so I consider myself quite lucky to have this as my local clinic. I took Arthur to the puppy preschool that is available here, and while it sounds ridiculous it's a really good idea because it allows for your pup to get used to other dogs and they teach you how to teach your pet; If you're local this is a good option. While vet's are always going to be pricey at least at Aldgate Vet Clinic you have the sense that it isn't just a job and these people actually really care for your pet...maybe even love them...maybe not. Anyhow, I will never change clinics, even if I happen to move.

I used to work at Inner West Veterinary Hospital in Sydney and at the Petersham Veterinary…read moreHospital. I wrote and directed (and toured) a children's show called "Puppy Love" which was produced by the Festival Of Sydney and the Sydney Theatre Company. I am one serious individual when it comes to the relationship between the owner and the animal on the domestic level. The responsibilities of the owner are as crucial as the responsibilities of the parent; if you consider the bond and the unshakable link that develops between the animal and the owner, you must respect and reciprocate the same bond. A dog will do anything to defend its owner, as will a cat under certain circumstances. You would not take your child to any old doctor or a different doctor every time it was ill would you? Once you had found a health provider that was really good with your charge, you'd return eh? So when it comes to identifying a good practise I feel pretty strongly about the way a Vet examples themselves. Stephen Terrace Veterinary Clinic get my vote. They are very clean and clear about the way they see things. That is important. No mystification, no mucking about. This is the most important thiing, no b.s.

The store is huge with a concrete floor that seems to be very common with large pet stores. If you do decide to bring your best friend in with you, you can give him/her a bath at the back of the store. This is quite commonly used and it's quite cute seeing dogs enjoying their baths. They really do have a large range of stock here, hence the name I suppose. Dog treats can be found at the front of the store, with housing options for dogs, fish, birds etc scattered throughout. You don't have to bring your dog though. I've seen people walk into the store with parrots on their shoulders. I assume these birds have their wings clipped, but the staff are always ready to help with your pet and like to make a fuss of them. It's one of the friendliest pet stores I've ever been to.
