Paw-Wares
Well it's been a while since I've posted, but Anthony and I have been busy! On March 1, 2009 we became the new owners of Paw-Wares Pet Supplies in Broomfield, CO. Since we already have a big presence in the pet community through our rescue work (wbcrescue.org)... pet sitting (FriendlyVisits.com)... agility... and flyball, we figured Paw-Wares would compliment us well!
Paw-Wares carries dog & cat food (kibble, canned, and raw diets), leashes, collars, toys, treats, and more. We even have some small animal products from Oxbow!
We've made a few minor changes thus far since we've taken over, the first of which was bringing in a freezer and raw diets (yummie!). We now carry Nature's Variety, Bravo and Stella & Chewy's "complete" raw diets, in addition to beef marrow bones.
New brands of food including Wellness and Orijen.
Squeaky balls are in - those are a must!!
A complete new selection of collars & leashes designed by a local woman in Denver (I'll announce those in a later post!).
And we are currently in the process of completely rearranging the dog food room!
Stop by and visit us today! (And bring your pet(s) along too!)

Five Major Myths About Raw Food Diets
From Only Natural Pet Store's October Newsletter:
1. It's Too Expensive – We firmly believe that feeding cheap dog food is a case of being “penny-wise and pound foolish.” A steady diet of cheap commercial dog food is strongly linked to poor canine health, often resulting in costly and hard-to-treat health problems as dogs age. What is really the more cost-effective option? You can spend a bit more for a high quality diet now, or pay dearly later on in terms of vet bills and your dog’s potentially painful and debilitating health problems.
2. Raw Food Is Risky – Generally speaking, the risk of getting sick from eating raw meat doesn’t apply to dogs. As did their ancestors, our canine companions have a shorter GI tract, and produce powerful digestive juices to digest and assimilate raw food and handle any bacteria it may contain. The bacteria that may be present in all raw meats (intended for human or pet consumption) do not usually cause health problems for dogs. In fact, a raw food diet is known to improve the health of most companion animals.
3. It’s All or Nothing – Many people mistakenly believe that feeding raw is an all or nothing deal, but this is not true! If cost or convenience is a challenge, you can choose to feed raw half time, or even just a few times a week. Your dog can benefit greatly from the high-potency nourishment that raw food delivers. Raw food is the natural choice for dogs, and even occasional raw food for your dog can improve their health and longevity.
4. Dogs Don’t Really Like Raw – It’s true that dogs (like us humans) can be creatures of habit, and dogs that turn up their noses at raw food are most likely responding to its “differentness” rather than the nature of the food. Also, dogs that free feed (have 24 hour access to kibble), or those that routinely eat commercial foods laden with artificial taste- and aroma-enhancing ingredients may have lost their natural sense of appetite and instinctive desire for healthy food. Dogs, like people, can get addicted to "junk" food. Given healthier food, many dogs learn to appreciate the vitality a raw diet gives them.
5. It's Too Much of a Hassle – When compared to the convenience of tossing some dry food into a bowl for our dogs, feeding a raw food diet is admittedly a bit more work. But with the convenient portions available in frozen prepared raw food diets, a bit of preparation (i.e., taking the time to transfer food from freezer to fridge to thaw) doesn’t add much to the food prep time. Today’s raw food diets take no more effort than you take handling raw meat to prepare meals for your human family members, and honestly, isn’t your dog worth the extra effort?
