I know that so many people say not to buy from pet stores and my family usually rescues but this time it was my boyfriend and I trying to find a puppy. He's never had a dog before and most shelters don't have puppies. So we visited petland a few times before we found our beautiful shiba inu. We took him to the vet that they're affiliated with and we really like them and continue to take him there. The only thing he had was kennel cough for a few weeks but with some antibiotics he got over it. The only complaint I have about petland is that the girl who take of us told us that shiba inus shed very little. She obviously wasn't informed because our shiba sheds like crazy!
