INTRODUCING: THE WHOLE DOG MARKET!

The DOGUROO Pack is passionate about enhancing the lives of pets and their parents.  Providing a convenient and comprehensive selection of the best dog and cat products available is just one of the ways we plan to achieve this goal.  Over the past few years, our in-house retail and nutrition experts have been busy carefully researching and selecting the very best products for you and your pet.  After all, as parents ourselves, we only want what’s best for our pets.  That’s why we’re excited to officially unleash The Whole Dog Market!

The Whole Dog Market is the retail ingredient in the DOGUROO Whole Dog Experience.  However, our commitment to the DOGUROO customer pack goes beyond the products themselves.  Our goal is also to provide the kind of service, selection, and education that makes stocking up at The Whole Dog Market convenient for you, and ultimately beneficial for your dog.

We will continue to develop The Whole Dog Market located within DOGUROO on Northside Drive.  We are also in the process of opening a stand-alone The Whole Dog Market location to make buying the best products available even more convenient!  Stay tuned!

NEW FOOD LAYOUT!

Our pack of pet food enthusiasts recently rearranged our selection of all-natural food by category. Now it’s even easier to choose and rotate among like-brands! The rows of dry/kibble pet food in our lobby are now labeled and organized into the following categories: Grain-Free, Limited Ingredient, and Maintenance. Within each category, the brands are arranged in alphabetical order. Raw and dehydrated formulas remain next the the self-service dog wash. Please review the category signs at the end of each aisle when looking for your pet’s food and do not hesitate to ask a member of our pack for assistance – we’re happy to help!

The new Group Puppy Classes at DOGUROO include a series of 4 seminars that rotate so you can start anytime! During Weeks A-D, your puppy will learn to be Obedient, Confident, Playful, and Respectful.  Choose from 2 or 4-session packages and complete Training with your puppy as your schedule allows!

Whole Dog Obedience – Tuesday evenings (6:30-7:30pm) or Saturday mornings (9-10am) :

The new Obedience Group Classes at DOGUROO allow you and your dog to begin and complete Obedience Training at your own pace, without having to wait for a new class to begin or clearing your schedule. Based around a core Obedience curriculum, these new group classes allow you to drop in anytime for personalized attention and graduate when you and your dog are ready to show off your new skills. Choose from 1, 3, 5, & 7-week packages!

P&G recently expanded their pet food recall, which now includes certain IAMS and Eukanuba formulas with “Best By” dates from July 1, 2010 to December 1, 2011. These varieties have the potential to be contaminated with salmonella, and parents are encouraged to discard these foods as a safety precaution. CLICK HERE for a list of affected formulas and stop by DOGUROO for safe, all-natural pet food alternatives.
