Find Healthy Pet Foods

List your Independent Pet Food Store on TAPF!

Independent Pet Foods Stores are owned by pet lovers just like you.  Often times, these business owners learned the hard way about the quality of some pet foods; their frustration and/or heartache led them to opening their own business to sell high quality pet foods and provide necessary education to pet owners.

Many of these business owners know more about pet food ingredients and pet food quality than most veterinarians.  If you have a question about any product they sell – they have the answer (or they will go directly to the pet food company for your answer).

They are NOT paid representatives of pet food – they are Independent, Educated, and They Care!

By purchasing your pet food from these businesses, you are supporting a local business in your hometown; NOT a huge corporation more concerned with profits than your pet.

Independent Pet Food Stores have a personal relationship with every customer.  If the worst would happen and your pets’ food was recalled, the Independent Store Owner would be one of the first notified by the pet food company; You would be second.  These businesses provide Customer Care large retail outlets can’t come close to!

And…each of the stores that are listed here are showing their support for this website and the advocacy work that we do!
