i have been looking into obtaining a pac man frog, studying up on the environment, food and other needs of this wonderful creature... i have already constructed the aquarium for it, for i wanted to have everything ready before hand...
now i run into my problem though... we have a local pet store right down the road... but they are pretty shady with their animal care, and i would like to obtain a healthy frog, as opposed to an unhealthy one, and risk it dying on me...

so, my question is... does anyone know of any local stores/dealers of pac man frogs near where i am at?... which is Stow, Ohio (northern ohio)... and if not this do you know of any good stores/dealers in general of pac man frogs?

lastly, if i were to order a frog an out of state dealer, do you know if they ship them? or do you go and pick them up? and if they are shipped does this risk the animals health?

...so on and so forth...

any help that is given is greatly appreciated.

thank you and peace,
chris
