During Covid, we did curbside pickup and delivery only. One afternoon I was answering the phones, taking orders, and a regular customer called with a very unique request: Along with her dog food and treat order, she asked if I’d stop at the liquor store and pick her up a bottle of vodka! I politely declined, hung up and just shook my head. We did deliver the dog supplies and she stayed a customer for quite awhile, even though I didn’t drop o the Tito’s! — Michele S., Flemington, NJ

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.
