I have a 7 year Finnish Spitz "Ranger" that has been raised RAW ! I've found a few stores in…read moreCalgary that each carry a small selection of the bones & raw foods as well as the complimentary nutritional items that we need to have. The downside of that has been that I was travelling to many different stores. I'm happy to say that has changed since I have been a customer with Dog Gone Healthy. I began shopping there in December 2011 when the store first opened and have found Dog Gone Healthy to be a very big time saver! First I will say that Laura the owner has done an extensive amount of research on what is nutritionally best for our 4 legged family members. There is not an item in the place that she doesn't know inside and out so you can be sure you will walk out with what you need. She is able to answer all my questions and guide me to the solution, I have never felt like she was recommending a product to me simply to make a sale. Laura also has a great selection of accessories that are as pretty as they are functional. I've never been a fan of a dog bed that looks out of place in my home. (Like it belongs in a barn or somewhere in the wilderness! lol ) She really has it all! I am looking forward to getting out to the pack walks that she posts on her Facebook page! What a great idea! Just one more way she excels in taking great care of her customers needs both 2 and 4 legged! :) Thank you Laura for all your dedication to keeping our pets healthy and happy!

Tail Blazers is a cute little health food store dedicated to selling wholesome, healthy treats for…read moreyour favourite four-legged family members. That's right y'all, a gourmet health food store catering exclusively to pets. Whether you're looking to spoil your mutt with fruit snacks, frozen dinners or a variety of different bones (bison, elk, lamb, etc etc), Tail Blazers has got one of the most unique pet food selections I have ever seen. The store is a little dark and cramped and the layout could be better, but in terms of the selection of merchandise they carry, it is most definitely worth a visit. Now that I've discovered this place, the only thing I'm missing is a pet. Minor detail.

Alistair is a pig, and I love him! My first visit to this…read morestore was on a special day...it was Alistairs birthday. He was upfront in the store with a wee party hat on..( have to say though I dont like when people dress up animals, but this didnt seem like too big a deal for Alistair) and they were giving away crave cupcakes. There were streamers, Alistair was snuffling away and cheerfully receiving pats from his admirers. So THAT was my introduction to this little place. LIke most mom and pop pet food stores you will find that the prices are higher than at somewhere like Petsmart etc. It is understandable as they dont have the volume of sales. The products they do have though are excellent, wonderful products for your beloved pets. It is clear that the owners of this store love animals and want nothing but the best for thier customers pets. I will admit that I tend to go to Petsmart, but do like to pop in here to pick up a few special treats for my kitties and see Alistair. It is so cool to have a pig in my neighborhood and to go to a piggy birthday party is something that I have for the memory books.. Long live Alistair, mom and pop businesses and all those who love animals. oink oink.. ( that was Alistair)

Besides being an independently owned pet store, the more appealing attraction PN has is its…read moreresident pig Allister. Allister's pen greets you at the door and according to his father, the owner; Allister has a Facebook page of 400 friends. More FB friends than I, Allister. The store is a very modest, simple establishment and it is run by a very likeable fellow, he took the time to bring Alli from the back of the store to meet me and they both showed me his trick of sitting down for a treat. Alli tried to sit again for another treat but his papa was all to savvy. One treat is enough, now don't be a pig about it. PN carries mostly supplies for dogs and cats and the prices there seem quite reasonable, it seems to be a large store and equipped with toys, food as well as a nice section of sleeping accessories for your furry friends. So yes this yelper likes PN and especially her new friend, I just hope he doesn't reject me on FB.

Everywhere was crazy busy due to the circumstances, they had the food I was looking for and we got out. It's a little small in there, compared to some of the other locations, not much staff working and slow stock. Which the last two are understandable due to the state Calgary is in.

my dog had his dewclaws ripped out after buying and wearing Ruffwear shoes on a walk…read more I brought this information to the store the following day, that he was selling a flawed product that harms animals. He told me he can't afford to lose $75 to return them. They were in the same condition as i bought them! Says he can only return dog shoes if they were worn indoors. Like dog shoes were made to be worn inside the house..... And no mention of that on the receipt.

Our dog was almost dead…read more We took our dog to "Especially For Pets" on 16th Ave for grooming and she was almost dead after we had taken her home and discovered her condition. The store denied any wrongdoing. Half of her body was bruised up. She could not move for days and she had difficulities breathing. In addition, she barely had a hair cut despite $80+ service charge. The hair was still long and uneven. It was obvious that our dog probably fell from the table and the technican stopped cutting her hair. However, the store denied any wrongdoing or they did not even apologize. We are dog owners of 13+ years and never encounter something so horrible!!! Will NEVER take her to this place again. We will never trust their technicans. Careless behaviour, incompetence and worse of all, they did not apologize or admit wrongdoing.

Fergie likes it, so I like it!…read more The staff here, especially Sheena! are amazingly kind, friendly and put Fergie (my big black pug baby) at immediate ease. They carry all kinds of pet products, and everyone is fairly knowledgeable on what will work best for yours. Love also, that despite being a locally owned business, their prices are on par or cheaper with their big box competitors. Not to mention all the furry friends I make when I come here! Hello dogs! It's nice to meet you. :D Got a dog that hides under the bed and bares his (or her) teeth when the clippers come out? Bring him to Sheena, she's a total boss. Would come here more if I lived in the area, but if you live near Edmonton Trail in the NE... well, why haven't you been here yet?
