Why should I shop with you and not Wal-Mart?

Why should I shop with you and not Wal-Mart?

I’m often told that my products are nice but pricey. Or that I can get dog clothes and beds at Wal-Mart for a 1/3 of your price. Very true, my prices are more than a bed or clothing item you would buy at Wal-Mart, but there is an important part that is not mentioned- Quality. Like all things in life, the higher quality items are going to cost more.

Quality is having your dog sleep on a bed that will actually support their body weight and not flatten after a few weeks. Quality is having a dog bed that you can wash more than three times and it will not fade and come apart.

Quality is feeding your dog what they are made to eat- meat- and not fillers such as soybean meal, wheat, and corn. Quality is feeding your dog food made in the United States and not flown half way across the world. Quality is all-natural and organic ingredients grown in the United States and baked by people in your own backyard.

Quality is buying from designers who originally designed and researched the product, not clothing patterns that have been copied and “stolen” during trade shows. Quality is buying dog clothes that will actually last getting washed after your dog enjoys a few dirty romps in a puddle.

Quality is buying dog toys made to withstand your dog actually playing with them- their intended purpose. Quality is buying dog toys made in the United States that you know won’t be tainted and sicken or even worse kill your dog.

Lastly, quality is good customer service. Wal-Mart employees are not going to be able to tell you what food or treats are best for your dog. They are not going to be able to special order a size or color they don’t carry because you have the largest or smallest (or cutest) dog on earth. Good customer service will be able to tell you how to train your new puppy to sit or why on earth your dog is always going to the bathroom.

This is why should you should shop from me and not Wal-Mart.

Amen to your customer service!!! Can't remember the last time I even saw a Walmart employee in the pet section. Thanks for taking the time to learn about what's healthy for my dog and thanks too for sharing that info with me when I come in.
