    Stopped by the Petco at Bailey's Crossroads to pick up some treats for my cats. This location…read moredefinitely feels like one of the older stores, and the layout is quite different from the newer warehouse-style Petco locations. Instead of one large open floor, this store is divided into separate rooms--the main area is geared toward dogs, while the fish and cat sections each have their own dedicated spaces. It took me a few extra minutes to find the cat treats, but the layout wasn't difficult to navigate once I figured it out. My only disappointment was the selection. Several items in the cat treat aisle were out of stock, including the Churu Chicken Recipe 4-pack, which I'm guessing is one of their most popular flavors. They had plenty of 10-count variety packs, Kitten 4-packs, and Skin & Coat 4-packs, but none of the regular Chicken Recipe packs I was looking for. There were lots of other treat brands available, but as every cat owner knows, cats can be incredibly picky--even when it comes to treats. I ended up buying the Chicken with Scallop Recipe Variety Pack since it was the only option that included the regular Chicken Recipe. The staff at checkout was friendly and had me checked out quickly. While I wish the shelves had been better stocked, the visit was still pleasant overall, and I'd stop by again when I'm in the area.

    This is regarding the grooming salon at Petco in Baileys Crossroads…read more Sang ("Sam") what's the groomer. I was impressed! Sam took the time to carefully understand what kind of grooming we wanted for our smaller and antsy dog. 2 1/2 hours later he delivered perfectly. Dog smells nice too. Had a party at my house later that evening and got great compliments from the guests. I would have to pay about double the price for the exact same grooming and nail trim in Alexandria. What's also nice is that I could go to the Panera Bread just a few doors down with my computer and have some coffee and do some office work while I'm waiting. Would absolutely use again.

    As a storm rumbles outside, with the rest of his village of Berk training cohort having gone for…read morethe evening, Hiccup turns the pages of his Viking clan's most sacred possession: The Book of Dragons, a descriptive accounting of every dragon believed to exist, and reads aloud, "Strike class. Thunderdrum. When startled, the Thunderdrum produces a concussive sound that can kill a man at close range. Extremely dangerous. Kill on sight. Timberjack. Skrill. Whispering Death. Burns its victims, buries its victims," Hiccup continues to flip pages, "chokes its victims, turns its victims inside out. Extremely Dangerous. Extremely dangerous. Kill on sight. Kill on sight. Kill on sight. Night Fury. Size unknown. Speed unknown. The unholy offspring of lightning and death itself. Never engage this dragon." Luckily, for those of us who have grown up with the much-less-risky and more accessible hobby of birding, there is no shortage of books that could instruct and fascinate audiences: David Allan Sibley's The Sibley Guide to Birds, Ken Kauffman's Lives of North American Birds, and, most recently, Amy Tan's Backyard Bird Chronicles, to name a few. But where should book lovers and birders alike head for suet, birdseed, and feeders of all kinds? If you live in the DMV, you could choose no better destination than Wild Birds Unlimited, located at 6955 Oakland Mills Rd in Columbia, Maryland, which just happens also to be next door to the Queen Takes Book bookstore. With culinary avian delectables ranging from Bark Butter Bits to no-melt super suet and feeders ranging from cardinal-, hummingbird-, finch-, and bluebird-specific feeders to Eco-tough, FeatherWeight, squirrel-proof, and tray feeders, and a staff that is both welcoming and knowledgeable, Wild Birds Unlimited in Columbia is a dreamlike destination not unlike How to Train Your Dragon's Berk, but other locations can be found in 43 states.

    WBU in Columbia is amazing. The staff is kind and helpful and really know what they are talking…read moreabout. The store is peaceful and filled with high-quality and reasonably priced bird items. I can't wait to try out the cool events they have.
