I am very happy with this store - but, more importantly than my happiness, is that my dog loves this store! Great food choices and treats. And, a very handy dog park.

Horstman & Son's, it's a friendly atmosphere. Kevin is very knowledgeable about the food and care of are pets needs. They have the BEST FOOD available and if they don't have it they will order it for me..

I love shopping here, the staff is so nice and personable. My puppy loves it too. They have a nice fenced in dog park out front as well. Shop local!
