I've heard about Petland but never had a need to checked it out--until today. On my way to 75% Off Books (priorities, right?), I parked in front of Petland. I have to admit, the lure is mesmerizing when you see those adorable cute puppy faces!! The place was very busy with potential puppy parents, and the salespeople were extremely respective (not aggressive). If you approached a sales person, they were pleasant, maybe offer you to hold a puppy (in a contained safe area) and if you seemed interested they would explain the purchasing process and the benefits of buying a pup from Petland. I was able to see each dog eye to eye through glass, it was a wonderful experience (see my pics). Now, let's be honest: Petland is a sensitive topic. Their reputation is...well, let's call it "controversial." They're known for being pricey because they sell purebred puppies, which naturally cost more than the mixed-breed cuties you find at shelters. Toss in their business model--fancy warranties, extensive health checks, and a marketing budget that could fund a small movie--and you've got the recipe for a luxury puppy experience. Critics claim their dogs come from puppy mills, but I haven't fact-checked that. While I was there, I chatted with a customer who'd just bought a Maltese puppy from Petland and was waiting for her complimentary microchip. She raved about the process, saying Petland offers a bunch of services with their puppies. She seemed thrilled and said her puppy has been healthy and happy. Even if you're not in the market for a dog (note: they only sell dogs), the store itself is pretty impressive. I've included in my Yelp review pics, rows of toys, colorful leashes, food bowls and more. I left happy with a Texas-made leather-scented Circle E candle that I'd been hunting for ages. So, I didn't leave with a puppy, but I did leave with a hard to find candle ... and a slightly more open mind. read more

Please do your research before purchasing an animal from Petland - look on Google and Reddit. Many of these puppies are sick - a Bichon from this location recently died of severe kennel cough within a month of purchase. Petland has been investigated by the Texas AG for animal cruelty. They've been effectively shut down in Dallas, and have been investigated by animal control in many cities in the area (including Frisco) for failure to properly care for and isolate sick animals. The dogs are also terribly overpriced. You will be able to find a healthier dog for leas than half the price from an ethical breeder. read more

I bought puppy from here thinking this was safer than getting it from somewhere else. My dog died a week later of no fault to my own. Petland made me over two weeks for their decision. Then claimed that because I didn't use their vet that it was out of policy. I took the puppy to an emergency er because he was having trouble breathing. Don't buy a puppy here it's not worth it you will be out the money and also out a puppy while losing your mind trying to get them honor their warranty. I would give them zero stars if I could. read more

I had no idea they opened a PetLand in McKinney! I live in McKinney, but closer to the Frisco location on 121. I got both of my Frenchies from PetLand in 2019 & 2020 in Frisco. They are the absolute LOVES of my life! Despite all of the bad rep and reviews they get, I am blessed to have two perfectly happy & healthy puppies. One did have Giardia whenever I first brought her to the vet. However, this is bound to happen when and if they step in their brothers or sisters poo/water that is contaminated. It's a bacterial infection that's easy to get rid of. Ever since, I haven't had any issues. They come with all of their paperwork, vaccine records, and the employees + vets in the background are amazing with the puppies. There's always someone cleaning the insides of their pins. Giving pups their supplements/medicine if they need it. I've seen them love on them as well from the backside of the pins. They're very well treated while spending their time at PetLand before being adopted. Some awesome benefits if you purchase a pup: *You get 10% off the store for life. *You get 10% off your next pup. *You get FREE Training for LIFE by one of their certified trainers. *You get supplies, food, their crates, a stuffed animal that has a heartbeat inside to help your pup sleep in the evening while training. ^Be sure to check with your PetLand, as I don't know if any of this has changed in recent years. Something that also helped my pups get acclimated was allowing them to sleep on heating pads on the lowest setting they often slept straight through the night! Even at 4 months old. read more

Update to my Jul 28th review. I've completed the insurance claim process for the insurance they give you free for 2 weeks. There is a $500 deductible. I had to pay $60 immediately for the stool test and the medications. I will then have to pay an additional $60 for another follow up test to ensure the parasites are gone. read more
