Just read a review from someone else, about the employees canoodling and being distracted. I've see that too. I've been in there a few times and am more disappointed each time. I'm done, and am kicking myself for ever spending a dime there. I just priced out a bark collar battery for $5.65 on Amazon, they sell for twice that. I had to "spur" the gal who answered my phone call pretty good to go see if they had them, then back after it again to get the price. They must hire based on Xbox score or number of followers on Instagram...the staff is young, dumb and distracted. The prices are sky high. I don't know what else we have in this area for pet stores, but Mini Critters has made sure I will have to find out. If the owner reads this, I'd sure like to visit with them. In my prior career I hired and worked with a lot of college age part timers. There are good ones out there, you just need to work hard at finding and training them. Good luck. With your prices, maybe you don't need very many customers through the door, or repeat ones. I hope I can prevent others from wasting the money and time I have with this outfit. Sioux Falls born and raised folks, isn't this the old French's pet store, with the nice old guy that used to appear on Captain 11? I cannot imagine that fella running a store this poorly.
