| - The original review, written below, got yanked after 2+ years being here on yelp because of vulgar language...here it is, in its glory, without the C bomb being dropped.
********************************
I am not sure what happened, but somewhere around December things were getting sloppy here at Bark Avenue. I figured it was the holidays and my last trip there wasn't very pleasant - the snotty cashier who glared at me when I walked in should've been an indicator.
She looked at my credit card and ID and said it should match. That is an ongoing battle with Wells Fargo for the past ten years, btw - they haven't been very good at issuing me a new card with my married name. Nevermind that my AZ DL has my maiden name as my middle name with my new last name, so you can clearly see the that I am the person, anyway, I digress. I told her that it's been a battle with Wells Fargo.
The cashier merely looked down at me and said, "Next time I may not permit you to buy anything from here."

Ok, I did hear correctly and you did read correctly, too.
WHUUUUUUUT?!
Again.
WHUUUUUUUT?! Whuut?!
Ok, maybe holiday shoppers and family life is stressing her out, so I cut her some slack.
Friends who have gone there on my recommendation have found service to be downright rude and obnoxious.
I went back there last month - I've been meaning to write a review, but have been stalling - and the cranky woman's partner in crime was there. The same condescending woman from December rang up my purchases, didn't even look at me, nothing. Kept talking to her friend. I paid in cash this time...not even a thank you. No acknowledgement, nothing.
Calling it like I see it - Bark Avenue is overpriced and frankly, I don't want to have to pay for poopy butt snobby, horribly DEPLORABLE AND REPUGNANT customer service.
Avoid Bark Avenue. I'll drive to Scottsdale or Phoenix or order my dog's food off the internet.
It's not worth the hassle. Avoid Bark Avenue. They think they're better than the others...and they're not.
I had always been a staunch supporter of local businesses, but this is one local business who lost my support.
