This One's for the Dogs

This one’s for all the dogs out there.

We have gone around Chilliwack, looking for the best pet stores and services around. Read below to discover the places we visited, and others on our list that we are planning to try!

The Scruffy Tail Pet Food & Supplies Ltd.

This quaint pet-friendly shop on Promontory Rd in Sardis offers a wide selection of raw dog food, Canadian-made products, treats, and toys for your canine friends. Their friendly service, knowledgeable staff, and commitment to only the best quality brands will have you coming back to Scruffy Tail over and over again!

Fergie’s Doggie’s Delight Pet Bakery

This adorable doggie bakery is exactly the type of pet treat shop you expect to find on Mill Street in Central Village (Downtown Chilliwack). They offer a selection of holiday themed cookies, birthday cupcakes, training treats, and even a cookie line called “Tommy’s Choice” created in collaboration with a local boy that raises funds for the BC & Alberta Guide Dog Charity. Fergie’s Bakery has two resident pups who are ready to greet you with a wagging tail!

Oly’s Pet Connection

Located in the same block as Freshco, just off of Yale Road in Downtown Chilliwack, Oly’s Pet Connection is a small chain pet shop with two other locations - Abbotsford and Mission. The difference is in the details at Oly’s. They not only carefully curate their product selection with a mix of bigger brands and locally made items, but they also curate their knowledge by attending seminars and keeping up to date in the world of all things pet-related! Also, if you are ever looking for something specific that you can’t find in stock, just ask! The staff at Oly’s can probably order it in specially for your furry, feathered, or scaly friend!

Here is a list of a few other pet-related places that we would like to try out. Have you visited any of these businesses? Do you have any additional pet shops or services that you highly recommend?
