For people from out of town, this place is a "Sams Club" for any pet you might have or want. It is the largest pet shop on the E. Coast. I never return from a journey without a trinket for the pup.
And that is the agenda for the day. Please let me know who is coming, so I can put together a list.
Thanks so much.
