When I mentioned to some friends that I was in search of some local pet boutiques, my friend Allyson B. gave me a list of some of the ones that she knew of... Mackie's Parlour was at the top of the list.  I looked it up on Yelp and saw there was only one review, so I figured I'd go check it out for myself.  

I couldn't believe that I'd never been in before based on their location alone.  They are located in the Hilton Shopping Plaza next door to Blue Wasabi 2 and near Cupcakes.  They have a cute little door (like a good parlour should) and they are dog friendly.  Minnie came too and was instantly wagging her tail when we walked in she smelled all of the scents of treats, dogs, people, toys, etc... so much to see and sniff!

As S W said in her review, this store really does have everything dog!  They have an excellent selection of dog collars and leashes; dog beds, coats, dresses, bowls, an even sunglasses/goggles.  Mackie's Parlour also carries homemade treats made locally and bullies (I think is what they called them) that are made in the USA (compared to other treats) and Minnie instantly went to sniff!  Of course, I was looking primarily at all of the dog goodies, but if you are a cat person, they have plenty for you too!

As Minnie and I shopped around, Vince and Tony (the owners) apologized because they said they were low on inventory as it's just after the holidays.  I thought they had plenty of inventory though!  They were extremely friendly and informed me that they've owned the boutique for 6 years now!  Minnie and I missed taking pictures with 'the real' Santa Claus by just a few weeks - damn!  I also learned that they've recently been voted the 'best pet boutique in the valley' by Phoenix Magazine for the 2nd year in a row.

If you are looking to pamper your pooch, this is a great place to do it!  Or, if you are looking for a gift for that dog or cat lover that has it all, go to Mackie's - I guarantee you'll find something unique and different!

Minnie gives '5 wags.'  I give 5 stars!

This is definitely a store for filthy rich women and their pooches.  I still give it four stores because it's really cute.  But if you go, be prepared to see more botox-ed faces in one place than you'll probably ever see again.

This store has everything dog.  Tiny dog dresses.  Dog beds with cooling memory foam!  Dog treats, collars, bowls...and the list goes on.  They also have gifts for dog lovers, like dog shaped wine racks and stationary.  

When I went, a customer was carrying around the cutest dog in a Gucci bag.  Guess what his name was?  Valentino.  Of course. Why woudn't it be?

If you love dogs, or want to treat your pooch to nothing but the best, check this store out.  It's pricey, but they have high quality stuff that you won't find anywhere else.
