NATURE’S PET MARKET, SHERWOOD AND WILSONVILLE, OR

Like mother, like daughter. Jennifer and Maisie Flanagan find purpose and peace — both professionally and personally — in caring for animals. Jennifer and husband Matt own and operate two raw feeding-centric Nature’s Pet Market locations, with Maisie serving as general manager of both. And the Flanagan family’s urban farm lists among its residents Nigerian dwarf goats Drew Brees (above) and Buckley, Nubian goat Simon Le Bon, Collies Lilo (above) and Sully, Pekingese Ginger (above) and Gizmo, Russian Donskoy Winky (above), Domestic Shorthair Sally, Pug Mei Mei, Tibetan Spaniel Ted and Toy Australian Shepherd Frankie. The many pets and their people, which also include other daughter Quinnell, spend much of their time on the farm simply enjoying life in each other’s company.

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.
