Kellys Farm Pet & Aquarium

Be very careful if you plan on purchasing a puppy from this store, we bought our puppy here and although we love him he is not the breed we expected. He has grown three times the size he should be, according to the vet he is crossed with a completely different breed to what we were told. I would steer clear of this store and go directly through a breeder next time.

When I first walked into Kelly’s Farm Pet and Aquarium I was not impressed. There was an overwhelming stench of dog excrement which made me feel like immediately turning around and walking out.
There is a large glass cabinet full of puppies and kittens, and you do have to wonder where they got so many cross breeds from. My partner did anyway, and she’s a vet nurse. The puppies are cute and all, but yeah… Sadly the smell ruins the whole experience in the store.
The store itself is tightly packed, as opposed to the big spacious pet stores. There’s a lot of various items to purchase, but there’s nothing you couldn’t get elsewhere. The prices are decent and they really do undercut a lot of those larger stores.
Bunnies and guinea pigs are kept in open topped cages so you can give them a bit of a pat, but the signs clearly ask you not to pick them up. I can understand how this would help hand tame the animals, but it is open to abuse. The cages are right next to the counter though so the store staff can keep an eye on them.
The prices are good, and there’s a decent variety of stock, but with such a horrible smell permeating throughout the store you might not want to go in if you have a weak stomach.

My go-​to pet store for all my dog and turtle needs, this independent pet store doesn’t display animals in glass windowed pens out the front of a busy shopping centre.
Located inside the small local centre of Modbury Triangle, much less people (annoying kids) bang on the windows or run amok here.
The inside is large, and they cater for all animals, not just cats and dogs. Their
Rods are very reasonable so you can pick up a few treats and a toy easy enough.
The pets are in large open air pens, some with glass walls or wire fencing and they look very happy, lively and well cared for.
The staff know their staff, not just some kid on school holidays earning money anywhere he can, and they genuinely ask questions to find out which product is right for you.
Definitely prefer going here over a Pets Paradise any day, and it is cheaper too.
