Care for your pet, not just supplies
A pet shop should help you look after the animal, not only sell you things for it. Bring your dog in for a groom, ask us about a diet change, or meet a shelter cat on adoption day.
A neighbourhood shop since 2012 (sample)
A pet shop run by pet owners
Maple Lane Pets (sample) started as a corner shop selling dog food and bird seed. Today it has two floors of food, toys, beds and clothes, a grooming room at the back and a noticeboard full of lost-and-found posters.
Everyone behind the counter has a dog or a cat at home, so we stock what we would buy for our own.
Food we feed our own pets
Dry, wet and raw food for dogs and cats, chosen by the staff who use it.
Grooming by appointment
Baths, trims and full grooms in the room behind the shop.
Local delivery
Heavy bags of food and litter brought to your door (sample).
Adoption days
Once a month, local shelters bring dogs and cats to meet.
Popular with dogs and cats
What goes out of the door most weeks. Ask us to put anything aside and collect it, or have it delivered with your food order.
Example prices. Stock changes every week; ask us before you come.
Groomers who know your pet
Three groomers, one room at the back of the shop and no more than four dogs a day each (sample).

How adoption days work
1
See who is coming
The shelters post the dogs and cats coming to the shop on our pet tips page during the week before.
2
Meet them in the shop
Come between 10:00 and 14:00. Volunteers from the shelter tell you about each animal.
3
Talk to the shelter
If you click with one, the shelter arranges a home visit. We do not sell animals.
4
Take home a starter kit
New owners get 10% off a starter kit of food, a bed, a lead and toys (sample).
What owners say about us
We came in for a bag of food and left with the right harness, a nail clipper lesson and a groom booked for Saturday. Biscuit now pulls me towards the shop.
Sample customer

Pet tips from the shop floor

How often should a dog be groomed?

Changing your cat’s food without an upset stomach
Mix the new food in slowly over seven to ten days, and ask for a sample bag first (sample).
