2022 is going to be the year of prosperity and that means that you and your pup can shop ‘till you drop! Luckily there is no shortage of pet friendly establishments for all of the shopaholic canines.
Starting off with maybe the most obvious category is pet retail. For everything your dog loves, take them on a trip to your local pet store. Take them for a shopping spree so they can get all the treats, toys, and accessories they can get their paws on.
There’s even a popular social media trend where pet owners take their dogs to the pet store and buy them anything their dog touches. It is especially entertaining when the smallest dogs pick out the biggest toys!
The big chain pet stores like Petsmart, Pet Valu and Petland have excellent hours and an abundance of pet supplies. However, consider supporting Canadian business by checking out your local pet store first. Additionally, your local pet store will have some more unique options for treats and toys than what you can find at the big chain pet stores. Listed below are just a small few of the local pet stores to check out in each province.
