    Mike's new job...partners in a holistic pet food store!

    Hi all,
    Most of you don't know me since I rarely post anymore, but, for the old timers...Mike has a different job. He quit the factory in April and started working at the pet food store where we buy our food. He is now a partner in the business and probably within 5 or 6 years the store will be his.

    We carry 19 of the top 30 brands of dog food as rated by Whole Dog Journal and it's awesome! We have the cat version of most of them as well. We even have the frozen raw diet by Nature's Variety. We have both wild and domestic bird feed and feeders, dog beds, toys, treats, etc (and cats). We have goat food, horse feed, guinea pig, hamster, chinchilla, pot belly pig, chicken, duck, ferret, and rabbit food....

    He is have an absolute ball! He's doing the ordering, going to trade shows, and counseling people on the best food for their animal and does some training tips and behavioral stuff.

    The name of the store is: Perfect Pet Food and Accessories and is here in Fort Wayne.

    That sounds perfect! Congratulations to both of you - okay, the whole household, as I am sure he has some willing "volunteers" to taste-test, or test-play with anything he brings home!

    Congratulations! What great news! Loving dogs the way you two do this is right up his alley. And I am sure he is very excited to get out of the factory. Good luck to both of you on this new venture!

    Oh we free sample people to death!! That's how Mike gets people to buy the food...he gives them samples of 5 or 6 different foods and tells them to take them home and put them all in separate dishes and let them decide which food they want....and you know...they always come back clutching a bag saying their dog loved the food!

    So.....let us know what kind you are interested in and an address and we'll send them out!
