By-Rite Pet Supplies

Please don’t support the abuse going on in puppy mills by buying puppies from pet stores. Go to independent local breeders or even better, an animal shelter. I got my little guy at the fremont animal shelter and He is the best dog i could have ever hoped for. :)

WHO WANTS A PUPPY MILL DOG???
Well step right up if that’s what you’re looking for. The puppies are in terrible shape! This store, and a few others are some of the few places that sell puppies when there are tons animals in shelters waiting for homes. Check this out:
FRANK, REBECCA and RENEE — you three should really rethink what you’re doing. Keeping dogs in small cages, then discounting them when they don’t sell??? Karma’s a B*TCH.
And to anyone who shops here. Shame on you and lack of sense to ADOPT A DOG FROM A SHELTER.

I made the biggest mistake by buying my Shiba Inu, Bella from this store. She was on sale for $ 800 because she had been there too long 2 months and they were trying to get rid of her.
She had so much energy and they kept her is a small cage most of the day. When the owner brought her out she ran around the store non stop because Shiba Inus have high drive so they need a lot of exercise. He had a difficult time grabbing her after she was running around the store because she was scared of being thrown back into the small cage. Since I was having a difficult time finding a breeder in my area and she was so cute I bought her and took her home.
I almost thought about returning her because she was so full of energy and didn’t stop running around for 2 entire days. But I think she only did that because she was scared she was going to be grabbed and put back in a cage. She didn’t realize this was how it was going to be from now on, no more cages. She eventually calmed down and she was more manageable but she was still very needy. She wouldn’t let me touch her and if I tried to grab her to hold her she would jump away from me. I’ve never been able to get close to her because she was scared I would put her in a cage like in the pet store.
Bella is now 5 years old and I’m experiencing a lot of problems with her temperament because of where she came from. Not only a puppy mill but also this horrible pet store. Since she spend the most critical growth period for a puppy in a cage she is aggressive to my guests that come over to my house and very afraid of them touching her. Not only that but she has a lot of health problems!!! After buying her I found out she had a defective duclaw (in grown and curling under the skin). They sold her to me in this condition. She had to get surgery to have the duclaw removed. I ended up reaching out to the business owner and had them reimburse me the money under the health guarantee. I’m so glad they had that because the bills ended up running around $ 800!!! I’m still experiencing health issues now that she’s getting older. We recently found out that Bella has a food allergy that caused her to get skin fungus, infected ears, bald spots, and a urinary tract infection. Poor Bella has suffered enough and I can’t bear to see her this way. PLEASE DO NOT BUY A DOG FROM THIS STORE! YOU’LL REGRET IT LATER!!!

My family has gotten 3 dogs from this place: a beagle, a cavipoo, and a maltepoo. They are all beautiful, healthy, and amazing members of our family. The owner there knows a lot about dogs and is extremely helpful. Even if you want to just go to play with puppies, it’s almost impossible to not consider getting one to bring home.
The only thing that bothers me is the fact that these dogs are kept in small cages with little room to move around.

I will explain to you on how my first visit was and then how out puppy is. Which is why I gave this 2stars.
I just purchased my boyfriend his beagle from here and we feel in love with it. He was exactly what we were looking for! My boyfriend called me at about 5 o’clock to look at this place because they had a beagle there. I called and I told the owner that if I can swing by during the week to check it out and the owner was extremly nice. He exlplanined how he has been running the business for like 51 years and wants the puppies to go to a good home. So I feel confident enough that I decide I want to go check out the beagle. We get there 3÷18÷2014 at 10am. We tell him how we wanted to see the beagle and he brought him out. Boy was he the cutest little thing ever. They let him out in the shop and he was running and playing with us. I told my boyfriend prior to going in that if he didn’t want the puppy we can walk out and keep looking. In the end I kind of saw my boyfriend’s face and the puppy and just decided we will take him. The owner told us we would get 50% off everything since we got a puppy. We went a little crazy and bought a lot of stuff. The owner mentioned a warranty on the dog but, I was in a bit of a rush since I was planning to be at work by 11:30. So I paid for him and my boyfriend dropped me off at work at told them he would be back for him around 2pm. My bf picks the dog up who we named yogi. While my boyfriend was there the owner made him sign paperwork telling him info how the warranty works, how he must visit the vet within 5 days and the return policy and gave him his medical records&etc. He kept emphasizing how yogi might have a «kennel cough» it’s common for dogs to have that if you buy it at a pet store. And if he has it to call him and the breeder will send him medicine to give us to give to yogi. We kind of didn’t think he had it and figured he is a healthy puppy. So the visit I would give a 5 stars.
HERE COMES THE WORST PART
Here we are following te rules I schedule an appointment for yogi to get check on 03/​21/​2014. However on 3÷19÷2014 at about 9pm I notice he hasn’t really been eating, his stomach made like a loud watery noise, he sounded like he was chocking on something. I call the vet where I plan to take him and they schedule me for the next morning. Here I am thinking great he can get his check up and we can see what is going on. From my understanding puppies need to have there boosters shots until they are 4months old. Well yogi stopped getting them 2÷17÷2013. From what the doctor said was they are every two weeks. The vet takes a look at him and said that he was eating fatty foods, so we put him on a bland diet. We tell her how he continued to say it might be the kennel cough and she doesn’t diagnose him with it but she did mention not to get any medicine for yogi from them. He seems to be okay for the next few days. 3÷23÷2014 we get a call from my boyfriends roommate saying yogi is acting weird and we can hear him cough from the phone and breath really hard. Us not knowing what can happen we take him to the emergency room. When we get there we find out he has a fever of 103.3 which is not normal. I hate myself for saying this but I’m glad yogi was acting the same way he was at home while at the vets so she knows exactly what we are talking about. It’s so hard to explain sometimes. I gave her his record. I gave her all his info. She said yogi came from a puppy mill and he has the kennel cough which is contagious to other dogs and pets. And she said how she hopes he doesn’t Get even more sick because it can be the k9 flu and that can be bad. We pay $ 207 there so they can give him medicine and fluids. The reason why I’m giving them a 2 stars is because they told us out puppy was healthy and our first few days he wasn’t. I’m glad he is better now. The doctor mention we can always return him since it was probably in the time frame. But do you really think I’m going to take away a puppy that makes us happy, and leave him a place where they don’t take good care of the puppies or possibly have someone just buy him at not put attention to him or be willing to spend money on doctor visits? OF COURSE NOT! Part of the conditions to the warranty were we CANT take him to a petsmart, VCA and another place. I think I should be allowed to take my dog anywhere I want. And a warranty shouldn’t be voided because of that. I can care less about the warranty at this point my boyfriend and I will do anything for this dog. BUY A DOG FROM HERE IF YOU REALLY WANT TO HELP THEM AND LOVE IT. They do need good homes. I can’t wait till the close down because the dog will be in a much better living condition. Don’t get a pet from here if you aren’t willing to spend money on a vet visit and get the help they need. I love yogi and I don’t regret getting him but I just wish they didn’t lie and tell him he was perfectly healthy when we really wasn’t.

PLEASE DO NOT BUY A PUPPY!
The puppy you buy is adorably cute. It might be healthy. it might come with a warranty (which doesn’t help much if yo have a broken heart). But ask yourself… what did the parents go through for you to have an expensive, puppy mill puppy? Go only and Google puppy mills.
If you love dogs, you don’t «buy» a puppy, you adopt one.

Adopted a 3lb yorkiepoo wife loves it to death as do i excellent service we should support the small business not just big box stores

This place is disgusting! The puppies that they have for sale are not well cared for and it is obvious that they come from a dog breeding facility… i.e. a puppy mill. Dogs at puppy mils are used strictly for profit with no concern for their health or the health of the puppies. The chances of getting a healthy puppy from By Rite is very slim and why would you want to risk that? If you insist on having a puppy go to the AKC website for a list of reputable breeders or consider getting a puppy from a shelter or a rescue organization… they do get pure breed
puppies contrary to what you might think.
DO NO BUY A PUPPY FROM THIS PLACE!!!

I still came by to check out the puppies despite the bad reviews. My kids want a puppy so I decided to come & take a look. The puppies look totally different than the pictures on the website. The front of the store looked ehhh… a big sign that saids «PUPPIES FOR SALE» really? wow! We walked in and it smelled like a dirty garage. My kids want a puppy so bad they didn’t care about the smell or even the poop that was in the cages.
We looked at three different puppies. One puppy, Alaskan Eskimo was on sale because he was getting «too big» he was only 4 mos old. The next puppy was a ShiPoo. The poor little guy had dried tears and an empty bowl of food oh and FLEAS!!! gross! The third puppy was a French Bulldog. Cute but he wouldn’t let us hold him because he was expensive. Ya that was his excuse. He’s expensive.
I wish i can purchase all these puppies and give them homes cuz this place was a JOKE! Remember that song that Phoebe from Friends sang? Smelly Cat? Ya well we can now make one up & call it Smelly Pup! Sorry mister we won’t be purchasing a puppy from you.
If you’re looking for a puppy please adopt one from the shelter or a reputable breeder not from this place.

I hope this business gets shut down. All the puppies from this store are from Puppy Mills.
A puppy mill is a large-​scale commercial dog breeding operation where profit is given priority over the well-​being of the dogs. Unlike responsible breeders, who place the utmost importance on producing the healthiest puppies possible, breeding at puppy mills is performed without consideration of genetic quality. This results in generations of dogs with unchecked hereditary defects. Can you imagine tons of dogs being cramped in small wire cages sitting in their own feces used for breeding? Those dogs are malnourished, horribly taken care of, and treated like breeding machines.
The owner of this store does not take care of the puppies properly. He only cares about making a profit. He doesn’t even give the puppies toys to play with and sticks them in tiny cages. Most of the puppies look sick. People should not support his store that way it can go out of business. When you buy a puppy from this store you are supporting Puppy Mills. This store and Puppy Mills need to be put out of business. If you truly love your furry little friends you will help to stop this cruelty by not supporting By-​Rite Pet Supplies or any pet store that sells puppies.
Reputable breeders NEVER allow their puppies to be sold at pet stores. Many pet store puppies have health issues. If you really want a pure breed puppy I suggest looking at purebred rescues or finding a reputable breeder. Reputable breeders also never ship their puppies or sell them online. They always require you to meet with them in person before allowing an adoption and they provide health records and check for any hereditary defect.
There are many dogs and puppies at animal shelters looking for someone to give them a loving home. My favorite animal shelter is the SPCA in San Francisco and they always have many puppies if you really want a puppy. Adopting at an animal shelter also costs much less than buying one at a Pet Store.
By-​Rite nor any pet store that sells puppies will ever receive a penny from me because I know those puppies come from Puppy Mills. Animals can not speak up for themselves and stop animal cruelty. WE ARE THEIR VOICE.

So, I went here desperate to try to find a specific breed. I was a little disappointed. I know that everyone says these puppies come from puppy mills, but I almost want to buy them just to save them and give them a great home instead of leaving them in a place like this one. The owner was a little curt and rough around the edges. He took out the puppy I wanted to see which was locked in a cage like the old school puppy stores. The puppy was running around as it had been cooped up all day I’m sure and when the owner dropped a tissue from his pocket, he wasn’t quick to pick it up and the puppy ate it. Yes, this happens, but then he proceeded to call the puppy a «stupid» dog. That was enough and I left wishing I had enough money to buy them all. It seems this shop has been open for a long time so I’m not sure what it takes to shut a place like this down, but I’m sure going to look into it!

Poor puppies. Me and my boyfriend went in here thinking we were going to buy a puppy but once we got in and saw the poor animals in the small cages something didn’t seem right this guy the owner is a dick and I gurantee he beats these animals because when he went to grap the one we wanted, the dog Was terrified of him and peed him self. Btw Not all these dogs are purebred okay so I don’t understand why he sells them for over $ 500 bucks I feel so bad for the pups I wish the city would shut him down. And the location this store is in is pretty ovious he doesn’t wanna be noticed a lot .I wouldn’t go there again only to break in and save the puppies lol. this place deserves no stars !!! please beware

This place is really ridiculous. Love the pets, the guy was alright, but the pets could DEFINITELY be taken better care of. I bought my little angel-​face Pomeranian, Cookie here three years ago. She’s sleeping away the summer heat at the foot of my bed as I type this!
Saw her online and I knew I had to see this store. Checked out the store with Mom, and had to hold her when I saw her. She looked so depressed and sad in that cage, and when I held her, I knew she was the one for me. She seems very quiet, but she has a hidden mischievous personality!
I took her home and realized that she was pretty dirty (like she hadn’t had a bath in over a month), and had an ear infection in both ears that were pretty bad. I spent quite a lot of money on her over the summer… at least $ 700 in vet bills for shots, spaying, micro-​chip, etc. That’s a lot of money when you are a sophomore in college! It took a few months for Cookie to get used to her new home, training, and for her to really shine. Now she gets SO happy when people come over, and her coat is so lustrous that people comment on it all the time!
Anyways, thinking about it, the store was pretty dirty, the guy damn well overprices his pets and he knows it. She wasn’t even AKC and I bought her for $ 900. Am I complaining though? No. Because Cookie is my life, and she’s worth any price. If he had said $ 2000 I would’ve bought her. She was worth every penny and more.

I would just like to say that I recommend this place to anyone that is looking for a dog. I went there to buy a small dog and I just had the most wonderful experience. I bought my dog, ½ bichon Frise and ½ chinese crested. The next day, I took him to the Vet and the Vet commented on how well the dog had been taken care of. And, you know you don’t hear that very often, especially with the doggie was there at the pet store for 3 (three) months!!! I recommend this pet store to everyone!!! Very happy.
