Eagle Pet Center

The only good reviews for this place must have been written by the owner or his family. We must take action. These conditions are as bad if not worse than other animal crualty cases where authorities have gotten involved. Please stop ignoring this Shakopee, you know it is bad amd says your authorities do not care.

I honestly was VERY surprised to see some great reviews for this place! Are we talking about the same pet store? I am an active Christian and animal-lover and I know firsthand all about this pet shop. I don't mean any disrespect, but this place is... bad, to put it mild...ly! I have never seen a worse pet store! It is dirty, store and cages both, and the animals have nothing to do at ALL! The fish tanks are very dirty and the bedding for the small animals is bad for their respiratory systems. They had nothing to chew to wear down their ever-growing teeth, no where to sleep except in the soggy wood-chip bedding! I could not stand this depressing site, so I personally made and bought toys for most of the pets there. I gave food to some, too. It was a project that took all summer to prepare for, and once I had given the treats and toys to the animals, the owner never said thank you! I admit I literally left in tears! God bless those poor animals in the Eagle Pet Center! Read More

This store should be CLOSED. It's filthy and the animals are not given proper medical attention. Just recently they had a huge dead koi just floating in the pond, sickly birds - one was near death it was just shaking at the bottom of the cage and the turtles lived in ab...ject fitlth. The water looked like a sewage and fish malt. The fish tanks have slime all over in them and the tanks are rusted and crusty. The guy says he could keep it cleaner, but it's an "old school" place, not a shiny new mega pet store. Last year they had a snaggle tooth ferret for a long time, literally months in just a glass area with newspaper shreds - no area to go into, not even a cardboard box and nothing to play with. So I bought a plastic enclosure and ball and told the clerk to please go giev it to the ferret. The next week they had i in a rabbit gace and I had to tell them to put it back. It's just sooooo disgusting and many many cojmplaints come in but apparently filth & neglect isn't criminal. Read More

The moment I walked in this store I noticed a furry animal scitter on the floor. I told the teenager behind the counter, and he said one of the rats got lose!!! So I asked If he should catch it, but he said one of the cats will cathch it! It was very sad... PLUS, there ...were dead fish, hamsters, lizards, and even a cat! Just sitting in the cage! AND DID I MENTION THE SMELL!? There was poo everywere!!! In fact, dogs and cats were running, fighting and going to the bathroom, in the back room. DO NOT shop at Eagle Pet Center!!! Read More

I don't want to give this store any stars, to tell the truth. Here's what I saw: 15 gerbils crammed into a small cage. Hamster cages (and the single gerbil cage) with no exercise wheels, nothing to chew on. Birds in barren cages with no toys. Filthy cages and aquariums.... While there, I saw a dog barf in the small kennel he and his littermate share. I had to point it out to a teenager working there, so he would clean it up. The other dog took a dump in the kennel. Who knows how long it sat there. This place is utterly depressing and sad. I don't understand why the owner doesn't go to a different, more up-to-date model and just sell pet food and supplies, and perhaps fish. But dogs, cats, pocket pets, exotic birds? In this day and age? It's glaringly obvious the animals don't get much daily care or attention. I don't caer if the shelves are dusty and the floor is dirty, but I do care that the animals are NOT being cared for and live in horrendous conditions! Read More

I would not recommend this store to anyone. As someone who saw two puppies that were purchased from this store (to get them out of some horrible conditions), I can tell you the puppies had fleas, their coat was in really poor condition and they smelled. They had been st...uck in this place for at least 6 months and the care appeared to be minimal at best. I would not recommend this place. Read More
