Love this petco, it’s the only one in SD I go to. Others are not as clean and the vets/groomers don’t seem to care as much. Sports Arena Petco has always done a great job and shown so much love to me dog!

Petco has everything you possibly would need for your fur babies. My dog grooms there, trains there and goes to the vetco there. Very convenient for me.

I recently bought a saltwater fish from Petco on sports arena (Diamond goby) as I always do I check to see the fish activity which was fine. Upon taking the fish home and acclimating the bag for temperature I put the fish in my tank. I noticed after a little while the fish was not acting right. I checked Petco salinity to mine. I keep mine at 1.026, Petco was at 1.020 which I believe might have shocked the fish. Unfortunately, the fish did not make to the next day. I have never had this issue before, and I guess in the future I will check salinity and acclimate accordingly.
