SLG Pets R Us

The russian lady that runs the place is super sweet and helpful. I do not approve of her selling dogs and cats, but I have never seen any for sale. Just advertised. She has a good selection of crickets and mealworms for my Beardie, and the dog food is appropriately priced.

Let me tell you what happened to me here, it should be on the news! So my co-​worker had referred me to this place to get my 2 little guys groomed. She said the place was kind of sketchy, but super friendly and did a great job on her dog. So since I didn’t want to spend the normal $ 70+ bucks at petco I gave them a try. She quoted me $ 45 per dog, for everything (haircut, teeth brushing, nails clipping, bath, and ear cleaning).
First impression walking in was pretty, pretty, pretty bad. They have kennels everywhere filled with dogs and kittens for sale. They don’t look happy at all, and in the back are birds, and reptiles also for sale, including scorpions. (Ya that’s right people scorpions!). The grooming room is in the back, looks ok.
So, I drop off my dogs and the woman says to come by around 2pm, I dropped them off at 11. So, I leave and when I come back…
I bring my BF with me and we walk in she tells us to wait 5 mins while she finishes drying one of my pups. Suddenly these 2 guys walk in. THEY LOOKED SUPER SHADY! Both were wearing Adidas track suits and wearing more gold chains then Mr.T. One was holding a German Shepard and the other a pitbull. So they come in and the grooming lady walks out to help them. They say they need there dogs cleaned, for a ridiculous discounted price, because they know the owner. YA RIGHT! Anyways, she says its to late to take in dogs because they are closing soon and the man that usually helps her with big breeds is already gone. BTW, the lady is about in her early 50’s and weighs no more then 110 pounds. These dogs probably weigh more then her. Politely she apologizes and says she can’t take them and they should come back another day.
They weren’t having it! They start yelling at her in Russian and English. Saying she has too, this is her job, call the owner. They were SUPER RUDE! She says she isn’t going to call the owner, if the owner knew about this he would have told her, they keep yelling at her to go get the owner or give them his number. (on a side note if they knew the owner so well, wouldn’t they have his number?) Finally, after pretty much being bullied into it, she calls the owner. And big surprise the owner didn’t know who the heck these guys were.
Lastly, she says no she isn’t comfortable with them yelling at her or taking their dogs. She could get injured, and her body isn’t able to pick the dogs up. Again they start yelling at her. So finally, I step in and ask them to leave and take their dogs. Mostly, because I couldn’t stand the way they were talking to her. Then they started to get in my face and yell at me. So I said if they don’t leave I’m going to call the police. Then the guy with a Pitbull came up to me and started yelling at me saying” What do you think I’m going to do to her!“
Whoa, step back buddy.
So I pulled out my phone and started dialing the sheriffs department. Before I hit the call button they both backed off and said they were leaving.
After about 20mins arguing back and forth they finally, left and I got my dogs, paid the lady, and left.
The sad part is she really did a good job but with everything else that happened there I will never go back.
