I'm looking for a new job, and there's a Petsmart hiring nearby. I've heard some mixed stuff about them and PetCo.
Is it all as bad as I've heard, or is some of it over-exaggerated? I mean, I've heard things that put their suppliers on par with slaughter houses at times.

When I was a little kid I wanted a Beagle puppy. My parents got me one from our local store. I live in an urban environment fyi. It's not exactly the projects but it's not a middle class area. When we got the puppy she was coated in dirt. No fleas iirc, just a lot of dirt. The people said they washed her but they obviously didn't.

They treat medium sized mammals fine but anything else is treated poorly, while reptiles are fucking abused.

You haven't thought this through. Convenience is the answer.
I got one because I can't be arsed to get up off the couch, walk outside to the garage, get the broom, and beat the dog every time it starts scratching at the garage door.

Snake husbandry question:
How sensitive are snakes to candle smoke? What about incense?
I'm looking at getting a plain ol' ball python as a first snake. In the past, I had birds and so burning things was a no-no. I've come to really enjoy burning a little incense/scented candles now that I don't have little lung sacs to worry about. ANYWAY, how sensitive to this kind of thing are snakes? My apartment is pretty small, so a single incense stick can make it visibly smoky. When I burn resin, I use damn near smokeless charcoal but clearly there's still hot aromatic molecules in the air. I thought I'd play it safe and just ban burning again, but I thought I'd ask if it was much of an issue before I sacrifice my ambient hippie stink.

Animals don't like perfume.
Snakes are slightly less sensitive to it, but still don't recommend doing this.

>>2217719
Cool, thanks. Small sacrifice for a healthy animal, just curious about it.

snakes won't mind much, but it's really bad for birds and shit.

They've led 400 species into extinction in the past five years alone.
There are 3 million feral cats in Australia right now. Some estimates reach 5 to 6 million.

I had recently spent a weekend figuring out what the breeds and mismarks were in my mismark folder. Not fun.
Pic is a GSD with mismarked 'Panda' markings. I heard they were trying to make this color it's own breed now, I wonder how that's going

Alright so my house just got robbed, my heart is in pieces right now and I need your help /an/ there is no sticky and I'm a newfag.
It's just me and my mom and I'm literally going into paranoia of home invasion atm so I was thinking of a dog with a menacing allure to dissuade/protect my home and family.
I know these kind of threads are frowned upon but I'm getting desperate I can't live in fear in my own home.
I was thinking of adopting an adult dog but I never had a dog before.
What kind of dog would you recommend for this purpose? I live in a house with a big backyard which would be nice for a dog I think easy maintenance and care would be a plus I don't have preferences of breed.
