Testimonials
My complaint has nothing to do with the dog training. From the time I walked into the store and at least 5+ minutes, no one said anything to me. My husband ran around the store and completed most of our shopping as I watched the cashier (Amanda) finish her customers and clean her station. She never once asked if I needed anything as I stood by the fish the whole time. The manager even walked by without saying anything. I finally asked if they had someone working in the fish or if I had to get them myself before I was helped. The store was almost empty.
