Petco Dog Training

Dec 2023

Really wish they would reintroduce online booking for the salon. Half of the people I've seen come in are unaware the salon even exists. Definitely needs to be better advertised.

Yikes. I'm a nonprofit animal rescue curator and veterinary professional. I decided to take two of our adoptables in for a bath after they swam at Shawnee Lake. I asked up front if there was a rescue discount and was informed that there isn't. Of course, just after paying for the baths, the prompt on Petco's credit card machine read: would you like to help us save animals? Well, Petco. Would YOU like to help ME save animals? Come on now. The bath station was atrocious. Hair all over the floor, hair all in the tubs and drains. Hair covered the walls and steps, as well. Suffice it to say, no one had bothered cleaning and it looked like at least 3 customers had come through with dense and longer coated dogs, like Labs. The tubs hadn't even been rinsed. There were muddy paw prints leading up the steps ‍ The shampoo dispenser is laughable. There is a note on the wall stating that the machine is "trying her best". Look, y'all have shampoo bottles for sale on the floor if you can't afford to get a machine fixed. I let the machine run for 10 mins while I deshed my largest dog. Still no soap, I tasted the water. As such, my dogs left there smelling like pond water instead of shampoo. And, yes, I tried both the shampoo and puppy shampoo options. At best, this is a place to RINSE your dogs, not bathe them. I also found that there were no nail trimmers. I asked the help desk and was told they don't stock them for use. So, if you're looking to rinse your dog indoors instead of just hosing them off outdoors, this is the place for you. If you're looking to actually be supplied with soap, conditioner, nail trimmers, sizeable towels and a clean station, try any place but this one.

Staff aren't very friendly and seem to only be there for a paycheck. Stopped carrying several items I used to purchase frequently so I have started going to PetSmart, jungle house in Lawrence of safari pets. Used to be so much different and enjoyed shopping there before they moved locations this year.
