Hello Fellow Animal Lovers:

Happy October to all of Hero's Dry and Wet Nozed Best Friends!!!!:
We want to take a moment to thank all of you so much for supporting Hero's P.e.t.s. We are an independently and locally owned business, not a franchised or big box store so your pawtronage means the world to us! We take extra special care in ordering only from companies with excellent quality control and a history of good ethics. We want you to be able to shop without worry and we greatly appreciate your support of our goal; to make all businesses more morally conscious in regards to you, your family ('specially wet nozed fur faces, of course!!!) and our planet.
Special thanks this month to Curt Rogers who wrote about Hero's P.e.t.s. in his blog ( www.whilewalkingduncan.blogspot.com )
