    We buy our dog's food at Petco..
    Alize' gets primarily Solid Gold Hundchen Flocken now, but we were mixing it with Solid Gold Wolf Cub food. We still buy a small bag of the Wolf Cub to add to it, but we don't give her as much as we were.. We were doing it about half/half.
    Deebo is on the Solid Gold Just a Wee Bit food. We had tried him on several different things, including Royal Canin, and etc.. But this is about the only thing we can get him to eat that he actually likes.

    Occassionally we get the Solid Gold green cow tripe in the can to give to our dogs as a "treat" with their food, but the smell of it is so disgusting, I can't handle opening the can... Lol.. So, they don't get it very often.


    We do buy some treats, toys, and dog shampoo at Wal-mart. But I primarily try to shop at either Petco or Petsmart...

    When we were living in SC, there was a Mom n Pop store that we absolutely loved, and they sold the Solid Gold food.. So we shopped there for everything we needed for the critters.

    I get most stuff from my vet clinic! (I get a small discount 'cos I used to work there).
    Watch out over the coming months for my brand new website: www.vetnurse.co.nz - currently being constructed (nothing there ATM!) - will update when I can

    Heavenly Pet Care

    Don't make someone else pick up your litter - have your cats/dogs/rabbits desexed!!!

    Yay! I've been boo'd!

    Dry food for my cats inside: local mom and pop store that carries EVO.

    Dry food for the strays outside: local supermarket, pet chain store, or walmart. Depends on where I am when I run out.

    Litter: have been buying MiMi pearls crystal litter from Walmart. Can't find it anywhere else.

    Toys: depends where I am when I find them and think "oh! that's cool!"

    There is a wonderful independent specialty store in the shopping centre closest to me. They carry everything and will special order if required. Their selection is outstanding and the customer service, great!

    It is high end but competitively priced and quality is very good.

    I buy my pet food from a tractor supply store called Big R and I also buy treats and toys and sometimes collars and leashes and shampoo and stuff like that, they have a pretty nice selection.
    Sometimes I shop at petsmart if i'm in Springfield and have extra money but not very often cause everything is just too overpriced.

    and every once in a while i buy some stuff at Wal-Mart but that's just toys and collars and cat litter

    I get my cats stuff from two places..
    1) Petco/PetSmart/Pet Supplies Plus
    2) The vet

    I don't normally buy pet stuff anywhere else, except occasionally the furry mice that Jack likes I find at Walmart.

    Where do I buy pet products?

    I buy most of the kids pet products from Pet Club, but I do have a closer, smaller pet store that I will pick things up from, too. Sometimes I will order online, or thru catalogs. I look for the best deal, highlighting quality. Since I have 5 birds, 2 dogs, a 70 pound tortoise, a chinchilla, and severol exotic fish, you can imagine how expensive the food bill can be!...Well, we all know that it's not just food you buy, right???

    To the original post, when Miss Hoppy was around, food was bought from the local produce market and the Whole Foods produce department.

    You have a 70-pound tortoise? What kind is he/she?
