Cutest Cover
I loved the chocolate lab reindeer! It was the cutest cover! (Nov/Dec 2017) We put it on our front entry table so everyone that walks in our office would see it! — Cassandra Powers, The Pet Firm, Phoenix, AZ
Great Expectations
I’d like to see a story on average income for store owners, relative to the size of the business. For example, single-door brick-and-mortars, two to five stores, etc. Also rural verses metro locations. What can an owner of a pet-related store or services business expect to make? — Dana Rice, Dog Wild Pet Supplies & Resort, Cooperstown, NY
Kid Training
Would like to hear what other stores might say to customers whose kids who are unruly/touching everything/loud/rude/pulling toys off shelves/etc. — Nancy Okun, Cats n Dogs, Port Charlotte, FL
Bad Reviews
I would like to hear how people handle negative reviews and if anyone had dealt with particularly slanderous types of problems. — Diana Perez, Species Pet Supply, Riverview, FL
