Best Pet Store Other End of the Leash
Gone to the Dogs Assistant Editor Laura Zolman Kirk and her pup, Winston, shop local at Other End of the Leash
C
o-Owner Diane Groff and resident dogs Makana – also known as Mak – and Foster gave a warm welcome as Winston and I made our way inside Other End of the Leash’s downtown shop. “We love it when dogs and cats come into the store,” Diane says with a fresh-made treat in hand for Winnie. She provided guidance and advice as we browsed through their selection of local, fair-trade and natural food, treats, toys and more. “We like to partner with local vets,” Diane says, “and work very, very hard to source out of the U.S. and Canada [exclusively].” – LZK
