The Dog Store

Neat little pet shop! Annabell was super nice and a pleasure to meet during our first visit! Lots of toys, dog and cat gear, and quality dog foods. Was a little sad on the small selection of refrigerator raw foods they carried but everything else was great! They even have a rewards program with their dog food! We will be back!!

This place has a big selection of chews that are not available anywhere else. My dog loves them! We live an hour away now, but still go back every once in a while to stock up

Great selection of toys, treats, food and supplies. They also have a small selection of cat items! Prices are comparable to what I’ve seen on Amazon, so shop local and help a small business. :) The staff is friendly and they provide helpful recommendations that actually work.

I went into this dog store with my girlfriend after a few margaritas and the dog salesperson was extremely helpful. She assisted us in finding our part good boy part beagle a new toy for his new home in del ray. We appreciate their customer service and professionalism in helping out dog find a new dog toy. Highly recommend!

My pup makes sure we stop by regularly for treats and pets and kind attention from the staff. They have a nice selection of everything you could want for your four-legged best friend.

You won't find a better place for your puppy. They love them as if they were their own. It's like being in a indoor dog park but only better. Because all dogs go through an evaluation so you can rest assured that all the other dogs are friendly. They are well supervise. If you board your dog here. why you're away they actually sleep in the room with the staff member they watch TV as if they were at home .Best place ever. They get to play with all their other friends while you're away. It's like a mini vacation for your dog.

Small store with a great location, better selection of dog focused (and some cat) products, and the single best group of staff I've had the pleasure of interacting with at a pet store. We love going here, and every time it seems like we find something new that becomes a favorite for our dogs (and a new kind of food our cats adore). When we have questions the staff have been great and, honestly, will keep going here over the local big box.

I love the dog store located on Mount Vernon Ave. A year and a half ago I adopted my gentle beast, lucky the golden retriever. I walked in and wanted to make him as comfortable as possible due to him being a pandemic puppy and his previous owner not having time anymore. My teacup yorkie and I welcomed him in, with new toys and all. Last year , I purchased a bear, fluff and tuff brand, and boy did it last. It’s lucky’s favorite toy, but after almost 2 years together , he finally destroyed the squeaker. On 8/22/22 I walked in around 12pm-1pm and a wonderful young lady helped me out. I explained that I needed the same bear … destroyed and all lucky would not allow me to take it away to discard. No luck, however this young lady knew exactly what I was referring too and she showed me the same brand just different animals. I went with elders the elephant from the fluff and tuff collection. When I got home , lucky still bummed out that his bear no longer squeaks, was introduced to the elephant and away he went. I love the dog store , I have always had an amazing experience with them. Even when I was gifted my teacup yorkie and knew absolutely nothing about teacup or toy size dogs (only labradors ) they assisted me with my picky princess’ needs. My beast , well he’s no different from toys to treats to basic needs , they have everything you could possibly need. The best part yet, the nice rep was able to help me find a brand new Mr. Honey Bear on the website , and he is now on the way!

Hippo LOVES his new Hippo! He also loved the treat that we got him. The store was well stocked with treats, food, accessories, all things dog! They also had a section for cats :)

There are a lot of treats and toys. The store is nice. Staff is Friendly

Great prices, great service, and great merchandise.
I 100% support this business and will continue to come back.

Great staff, and a very cute store. They are hands down the best dog store in Alexandria. I always love supporting local businesses, and they are a prime example.

My partner and I just moved to Del Ray from the other side of town, and we made it a point to commit to shopping locally. We have two fur babies of our own, and were SO happy that The Dog Store was a 10 minute walk from our house. This place is THE BEST. They carry the best brands and always treat us like we're family. Kadeem is the man! He will never hesitate to make sure you're taken care of and will always give your babies all the love. There's no competition here - The Dog Store is the best pet store in the DMV. We are so happy that they're around.

Very helpful staff helped me pick out a new leash!

This is like the doggo version of a favorite bar. We stop by a few times every week for a cookie, a favorite dog food, or to try something new. Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Sometimes quirky, occasionally chaotic, always a good place to visit.

Your dog’s wildest dreams are about to come true. I’ve never seen so many different products made from so many different things--specifically for dogs to chew and enjoy. You kind of have to go see for yourself. Pick something up and watch your dog devour it...you’ll be amazed!

Best pet store in the area! Staff are helpful, friendly, and knowledgeable about the products they offer. Highly recommend!

Everything a dog lover loves. Fun mix of toys and wild and crazy "gnaw bar" treats. Top brands of healty food. Knowledgeable, friendly staff. Must do stop whenever you are in Del Ray.

Great business! Staff is friendly and knowledgeable and they have a wide variety of items that are hard to find. Also, probably obvious, but location is dog friendly. Our pups like going to the store with us.

This is a fun store to visit when in Del Ray. They DO love the dogs and there always seems to be new things to see and learn about. The windows are always themed and it makes for a fun stop for all ages. The outdoor patio was also a fun and unique spot to share treats with our dog after our visit.
