(PRESS RELEASE) The Earth Animal retail store is moving to a new location after 40 years on Oct. 6. A ribbon-cutting and special events through the end of the year will mark the occasion.

“Westport has been our home since Day 1 and when we realized we were ready for this move, we knew we wanted to remain here, but find a location where we could offer an enhanced and more engaging experience for families with animals,” said Merritt Goldstein, co-founder and “Chief Earth Officer.” “We feel so thankful for the outpouring of support and excitement we have received from the community about our new store and can’t wait to open.”

Additional events celebrating the new store opening will be held on weekends throughout the year. A complete calendar of events for the remainder of the year is available at earthanimal.com/our

NASC Media Spotlight

At first it was just an idea: Animal supplements needed the same quality control that human-grade supplements receive. But that was enough to start a movement and an organization —the National Animal Supplement Council — that would be dedicated to establishing a comprehensive path forward for the animal supplements industry. In this Media Spotlight interview, NASC’s president, Bill Bookout, talks to PETS+ interviewer Chloe DiVita about the industry today: Where it’s headed, what’s the latest focus and why it’s vital to gain the involvement of independent pet product retailers.
