I would have said 5 star but last Saturday I bought raw meat for my dogs but apparently they had problems with freezers but my dogs are not eating it as it’s not of the same quality they normally eat it straight off but the staff are fantastic and helpful hopefully the problem is solved

The food i normally buy for my dog has just disappeared from the shelves. I get purina beta light. There are other types. Puppy, sensitive etc. The staff can't tell me if it will come back. I have to buy it from Amazon. I can still buy the cans and treats but not the dried food.

Great customer service and 25% off
I visited yesterday and to my delight my dogs food was on offer. When I approached the till the server was friendly, bubbly and chatty taking my details for the pet club and how much I saved. She asked if I wanted to buy an additional item from the counter and when I declined she wasnot pushy and was in agreement with my reaso .
