"This place is gross! .... the people that work here are awsome ..... but every dog is over priced by 3x.... they told me that they leave the dogs in these little places until they r sold.... also they are from puppy mills.....which they try and make u feel special when u pay 7k for a dog they got for like 400 bux... they say th3y are from legit places but just get the actual info from where they were born it is a smoke and mirror.... I feel bad for the dogs in here cause they have no interaction once the store closes either.... what I would do is pay then boycott.... wetland is a joke.... not the employees ..... only the owners ... because the ones that work r not wise enough to understand"

"It is illegal to sell dogs at pet stores in IL for a very good reason, yet this store continues to do so. These ill-bred puppies come from puppy mills where dogs are kept in tiny cages with no regard for their health or comfort. Anyone who buys a puppy from a pet store is contributing to the abuse and neglect of dogs. Shame on this store, and shame on anyone who buys a puppy from a pet store instead of adopting or buying a dog from an ethical breeder."

"I can’t express enough how sad it was. They had dogs and mulitple dogs in the same cages. Cramped on top of each other. The dogs are drinking out of hamster watering jugs.. how are they suppose to get water from a water spout like that… also the golden retriever we saw was covered in poop… we couldn’t even play with it since it was covered in poop and smelled so bad The one employee in the back we saw her throw the puppy back in the cage.. I feel so bad for all the puppies there. I wish I could save them all. I feel so bad the animals are not even being respected there or taking care of properly.."

"First time buying a dog from a pet store. Best experience, ever very friendly Staff Willing to work with you every step of the way. And when you buy a Puppy from them you get four hundred and fifty dollars worth of stuff for free It is such a shame that they only have one location that sells dogs and insists location. And they also give your pet AKC insurance too. I would like to see though a pet land that just sells cats. That would be interesting too. Hopefully soon they will be able to do that. Thank you, petland."

"TO NO FAULT OF THE STAFF (who was very knowledgeable, kind, helpful, and hard working) this place is not up to standards. Already selling puppies that are from mills is enough, but the dogs should not be in small, overstocked glass cages STANDING ON WIRE. This is a lazy way to try and keep the cages “cleaner” whereas it actually creates more of a smell and teaches the puppies poor potty habits from the start. Please take better care of these sweet babies"
