Pattie’s store started with a need to help her Chesapeake Bay Retriever, Ernie, who had developed cancer! Instead of chemotherapy and drugs, Pattie began a raw food routine for her dog. Finding no raw food or supplements easily available, Pattie decided to fill this niche from her garage. Ernie lived a long and healthy life and Pattie is now celebrating her 15th year in business! With a passion for animals, Pattie truly wants what’s best for your pet!
