We just had the BEST experience at DD today! We came in for a first time health care appointment, because I need some assistance with Rory’s nail trims while my shoulder heals from an injury. Everyone was so lovely. I spoke at length with Katie who was working out front and assisting everyone who came in. Hannah was doing admin in the Services room and was quite friendly. Kat and Natalie teamed up to welcome myself and Rory to their consent-focused model of healthcare. They used positive rewards, kind language, and a gentle touch to introduce Rory to themselves, their touch, and the tools! They were so amazing with her, and so patient. Rory LOVED being there. She was a good girl for them and she can't wait to come back! We immediately booked in for 2 wks from today to get into a positive trim routine. Thank you for making our day! - Nev + Rory More...

Super fun and great place for anything dog related. We got a great collar and leash not to mention a shampoo that changed our pups life! He’d get big bumps and hives for days after a bath from a vet recommended shampoo and since we switched over to one suggested by discover dogs, no more bumps! Yay! Thanks for being great! More...

Jake has trained us humans well and the puppy is very happy our progress. He rewards us with good behavior and a willingness to do our bidding most of the time. Most of the time because he is a Siberian Husky, a so called Ancient Breed and there is a limit to his willingness to be tamed.

Seriously an 'Ancient Breed' is a polite way of saying a dog that doesnt like to be told what to do and expects to run around the tundra all day.

We faced a specific additional challenge. He broke his leg at 10 weeks and so didnt get a chance to socialize at the right time. The normal challenges are high energy, willfull, jumper, biting, barking, ....

We have had such fun and loved what Jake taught us. And Jack is under control, as compliant as you could expect from a 7 month puppy. It so non confrontational. Training is a happy time for us and the dog. He loves doing the work and we enjoy making progress and seeing a happy balanced dog. Balanced meaning non obsessive, de-emphasizing the the difficult breed characteristics.

Jake is a very soothing happy person to work with.

What an awesome store! Instead of having a huge selection of shit products, they have a limited selection of carefully selected ones.
I tried four different stores looking for new collars for my dogs. They all seemed to carry only in tiny or giant sizes, and were either super cheap or super expensive.
These guys have great prices & great stuff.
Now I know where to go next time my dogs need something!

We love Discover Dogs! Our pups Paisley (Boston-Frenchie cross) and Spartacus (German shepherd-Border collie cross) have benefitted immensely from their care. They go over and above - detailed walk reports, behaviour work, health care like ear cleans and nail trims, food delivery from the store, recommendations for some of our pup's health concerns... I could go on. I also appreciate their email response times. Great business, amazing people. Thank you Discover dogs! More...

Came in with my 10 week old Frenchie Puppy to pick up some more chew toys and take a look at the store as I had never been in. They were quite busy but everyone was super friendly & informative and I really appreciate all the information and time they took with us! Can't wait until Bo is old enough to start puppy training! I ended up buying quite a few things and so far he's gone ape shit over the things I got him! Very happy :-) More...

We came to Discover Dogs for our puppy classes and were very happy with the program. Its held in the store which at first I thought was strange but later realized it was good for the dogs to have the distractions. I loved my puppy but was getting frustrated with her on walks. I learned all the skills to handle any poor behaviour and no longer get frustrated with her. We also found that most puppy classes had a max of 8 dogs and Discover Dogs was 4. More 1 on 1 with the teacher. More...

Discover Dogs is the best dog store we've visited in Vancouver. The staff are exceptionally knowledgeable about diet, preventative health care and training. As new dog parents, we felt totally over our head the first day with our terrier. The staff at Discover Dogs walked us through just about everything; the advice and coaching we received at the Saturday healthcare hours immediately increased our confidence. The nail trim went so smoothly too! This will definitely be our go-to place for all our dog needs. More...

I'm really impressed with both the selection of food and products but also the caring, informative staff. My dog was having digestion issues and it appeared to be related to his food so I went to Discover Dogs on a friend's suggestion to switch up brands. They helped me eliminate some possibilities and recommended some other things I hadn't considered and I was introduced to some great new dog food brands. Because it's my dog and I care if he's in distress I also took him to the vet just in cause his digestion issues were a symptom of something more serious than aversion to ingredients. The vet tech was really condescending when I gave her my hypothesis of what could be wrong based on the information the Discover Dogs people gave me. She laughed it all off and said, "yes, because pet store staff are known for being so knowledgeable" really sarcastically and they wouldn't follow that lead any further in favour of doing of bunch of expensive and unhelpful tests.They sent me home with a large bill and a shrug as to what was actually causing his problems. This was all a couple months ago and I had to switch vets due to moving outside the area. The new vet did some tests and confirmed pretty much exactly what the DD staff had told me about my dog's food issues so I trust these guys implicitly now. They really know what they're talking about and they actually seem to care about each animal that comes in. More...

Whenever they walk / pet sit Trixie we also get venture reports from them in the evening on how their day went and helpful tips as well!

I've walked by a few times, however, it was a sign about a raw food seminar that actually prompted me to go inside and get some information. Sadly due to work will not be able to make the seminar, however, discovered a great place to buy treats for freedom. All natural dog treats in a wide assortment of flavors including apple bacon. The guy working the counter was super friendly, sweet and helpful. He didn't have to try hard with the customer service, it just came naturally to him.P.S.
