are lucky to have several very well run pet stores close to us, and only one or
two not-so-well-run ones. Like many other people have said, it's all
about the Store Manager. And it's the same for any retail store, you can
tell a lot about the Manager by watching the employees – if they are
surly or could care less, you can bet there's a poor Manager at that store who
is also surly and could care less. My favorite is the Petsmart up the
road a mile or so, mainly because their prices are cheaper than Petco. But
Petco has a great cookie bar.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
