A NEW ALL-NATURAL pet food or treat hits the market almost daily it seems. How does a purveyor of such products stay sane while also keeping up? Eric Mack, owner of Purrrfect Bark, spends time with his family: wife Jayme, mom Laura, kids Caleb and Emma, and dogs Sophie, Bella, Daisy and Bailey. Store cat Luna serves as his calming presence at the office.
