I went there today to use the dog washing station, and the area was a complete disaster as you can…read moretell from my pictures the floors were soaked, not just wet, literally soaked dog hair in clumps all over the place. The grooming station was filled with dog hair, I had to clean the dog hair out of the actual Fan great for the dryer, and there was standing water in the tub that I literally had to clean the trap out I don't know if it was a husky in there before I walked in, but the entire dog washing room was a disaster. I luckily brought two extra towels that I laid on the floor Just to walk on. I've never seen such a disastrous looking room in my life, and I have been going there for quite a while.

This feed store is incredibly unique in the little but busy town of Merton. I get my bird seed…read morehere (#25 bag of premium seed mix) for $18. While I am inside the tiny "store" I am greeted by live chicks, and feed for a wide spectrum of animals: dogs, cats, horse, chickens, pigs, birds, rabbit and small animals. Also bedding and hay and then add in gifts and accessories. All in a very small shop. Whether you are a small or large hobby farm, check out their website and it will give you lots of info about all they offer. And the pricing is really good. Drive up, pay and they load your car. The steps inside are small and old, no real accessibility, but everyone who works here is helpful. I have barely scratched the surface of what Merton Feed does. It is so great to have an old-fashioned no-nonsense feed store to shop instead of the big box places. It is absolutely worth the drive.

This place typically has the lowest prices you'll find, but their customer service is not good…read more I've had a number of interactions here that have left me feeling bad and not wanting to shop here anymore. 1) There was a time when they weren't sure if they had my dog's food in stock. They called the back to see if they had it, and it was a lot of back and forth about whether or not they had it. The phone call ended with them saying it was out of stock. Then a minute later they called and said they did have it after all. So I pay and pull around back, only to be told they don't have it and I would have to get a refund. This was followed by "just kidding." I was prepared to let this go, but the other interactions on top of this...it all adds up. 2) My dog hates car rides, so I put my sleeping bag on the back seat for her. It smells like me and calms her down. Someone working in the warehouse saw it and asked me if I'm homeless and live in my car, as he laughed. 3) Someone gifted me a bag of dog food in the correct brand and wrong line of food. I brought it here (unopened and brand new) to exchange it for the correct one, and was told I couldn't do that, because I had no proof it was from there, and they don't know how it's stored. This would make sense if they didn't take their own product back either, because they also don't know how the person stored it. They told me I was trying to get a free bag of food from them, which makes zero sense, considering I was trying to exchange an unopened unexpired product that actually cost more than the one I wanted, and I didn't even want the difference given back to me. It didn't matter to them I'm a long time customer of theirs. They treated me like I just randomly walked in off of the street and was demanding they hand me a free bag of food for nothing. 4) I purchased a bag of dog food, and afterwards, realized there was a small hole in the bag. I brought it back to them, and they told me if I kept the bag they would refund me $1. One dollar. They have raised the price of my dog's food by $10 per bag in the last six months or so, when it has remained the same price everywhere else. They are now about the same price as any other brick and mortar or online store. I will be taking my business elsewhere.

I have been going to Wadsworth Feed for over 10 years to purchase their bird seed. I travel quite…read morea distance to get their so I purchase several bags at a time. I noticed that there were tiny moths on the outside of the bags when I got them home and tried to clean them off. However when I opened the third bag, there were lots of moths all over the inside. I took the bag back to the store and was told by the girl at the front that she had never heard of any moths on or in their bags. After she checked with the owner, I was told that i was not allowed to return the bag without a receipt. Please realize that the bag itself is one that they charge you for because they want you to bring it back for reuse. Secondly, it still had their tag on it and a sticker with their name on the price tag. I told her that I did not want more moths in my house (don't have a garage in which to store it) and she told me to take it back to the warehouse. The young man there knew instantly about the moths and opened the bag immediately. He said that he had seen them on the outside of their bags but never on the inside. He tried to get the front desk to refund my money, but they told him no. Then another guy came out to check. They both agreed that the bag had not been used and he knew about the moths as well. He however, told me that I should throw the bird seed on my lawn and that the moths would fly away. This seemed like a ridiculous solution to my situation - especially with a 50 lb bag of birdseed. Bottom line is that this was the best example of terrible customer service I have ever seen. The girl at the front desk practically accused me of creating the bug problem. They refused to stand by a product that was clearly from their store. And their only resolution was to throw the product all over the lawn. Clearly this establishment thinks so highly of themselves that they do not need to stand behind their products and obviously do not care at all about helping their long term customers. This situation is such a shocking disappointment. Typically small, family owned businesses are very courteous, but this is not the case with Wadsworth Feed. I have always tried to patronize the smaller businesses to show support. This one is definitely off my list forever. Buyer beware. Check your products before purchase because you may not be able to return them once you leave.
