Mercantile On Broad - The Pet & People Place

Beth Taylor

A couple of weeks ago, just after the remnants of Hurricane Ian swept through our area, a friend of mine had found a small doggy sleeping in the street near her house, wet and cold. We tried to locate an owner, to no avail. My friend couldn’t keep this little guy, so my husband and I took him in. We were unable to get him to eat anything except human food, which we knew was not good for him, so we visited the folks at the Mercantile. Ryan and Dale were very informative, and offered us some food samples to try to get our new furry family member to eat something healthy for him. When they heard how we came about having our new little guy, they were very happy that we were willing to rescue him and give him a safe home. They offered some very helpful tips in helping him feel less scared, and in helping our other two dogs with the new addition. I can’t say thank you enough times to these fellas for all their help, and we know that from now on, these are the folks we will go to for all of our pet care and food needs! Pictures of our little Deputy Barney Fluff from the day of rescue to present. He is a very happy, well-adjusted, tail-wagging little boy!

Very expensive but they have about everything you would need

I'm never going back here again. I was going near about weekly just to pick up odds and ends and check on the reptile rescues they have.but after paying 75$ or so for a dwarf lop, only for it to drop dead for no reason I could tell within a week. Called just to see what could be done cause ... not going to lie. That is a lot for a petshop rabbit. I was told once it was out of their doors it wasn't their issue. My other rabbit is a dwarf (so I was told) and is doing fine so I know it's not the food or water that caused any issues. Regardless I refuse to go back here. Anything I can picked up here I can get at tractor supply or online if need be.

its okay if youre knowledgable about the pet youre buying or caring for. if you havent done your research, i dont think the employees are very knowledgable about the stuff they sell. I overheard an employee tell someone to lay their birds millet on the bottom of the cage. It will get soiled on the bottom. Theres 1 parakeet left in the cage, with a severely overgrown beak. Overheard incorrect info about rabbits. There was flies all around the store rabbit, i know flies come in the doors, but they make fly traps. Flies carry disease. I guess my point is to do your own research, and dont rely on the employees info.
