Mon Tou Tou

I was in the Seibu department building in Shibuya, looking for the place I’d been able to get on a rooftop five years ago, when I came across Mon Tou Tou. Up at roof level, the roof wasn’t open to the public and I wondered if this had been the same place I remembered from before. Back then, there had been a pet store on the roof, but it had been an old ramshackle sort of pet store, with narrow isles crammed with various stuff.
Mon Tou Tou is a modern store for the modern, upscale pet owner. They have a small selection of expensive pet products and had some puppies for sale too. As is typical of high-​end pet stores in Japan, the puppies were kept in Plexiglas cages that seemed lonely and depressing to me. It wasn’t obvious how much attention the pups got in this store, and they didn’t have cage-​mates to play with. I felt very sorry for them, additionally because Mon Tou Tou is the only store at roof level and with the rooftop access closed (as it was during my visit) there was really no customer traffic going by or checking out the store. You would have to really want to come to this shop to find it.
I believe Mon Tou Tou is also known for grooming services, but I can’t say if this location offers that or not. If they do, it wasn’t obvious during my slow walk through the small store.
Overall, I would not have a reason to return here, but if you’re buying a puppy or need fancy puppy accessories, this might be the store for you.
