Canine Caf\u00e9 Charlotte<\/b><\/h3>\n

Canine Caf\u00e9 Charlotte<\/span><\/a> is located at 125 Remount Road in Charlotte\u2019s South End neighborhood. We love this adorable little shop, in part, for its intriguing history. In 1995, founder Barbara started baking food for dogs when her own dog, TJ, developed an allergy to commercial dog treats.<\/span><\/p>\n

This gave Barbara a bark-worthy idea! She opened a pet treat bakery in Pineville, NC in 1997, so she could help other pet lovers feed their dogs all-natural, hypo-allergenic, healthy food. Since then, the bakery has changed names and even locations, but that\u2019s only because Canine Caf\u00e9\u00a0 became so popular with local residents that it required more space!<\/span><\/p>\n

Today, Canine Caf\u00e9 Charlotte is much more than an on-site pet bakery. The store also offers grooming tools, travel gear, mats, beds, bowls, CBD supplements, and a wide assortment of healthy pet food including grain-free kibble varieties, as well as wheat, corn, and soy-free dry dog foods.<\/span><\/p>\n

Pet Wants \u2013 The Urban Feed Store<\/b><\/h3>\n

A charming retail shop,<\/span> Pet Wants<\/span><\/a> is located at 2324 B Distribution Street in Charlotte. Inside you\u2019ll find a diverse array of pet treats, bones, apparel, leashes, shampoo, food, toys, CBD oil, salves, and ointment.<\/span><\/p>\n

As awesome as all those products are, the real standout here is the pet food. Pet Wants slow cooks pet food once a month in small batches, so pets get fresh food, rather than food that\u2019s been sitting on shelves for months.<\/span><\/p>\n

Plus, Pet Wants\u2019 food contains all-natural ingredients, meaning there\u2019s no sugar, fillers, or animal by-products. Because the store opts to use only the best quality salmon, chicken, lamb and brown rice, your pet benefits, enjoying some of the most nutritious food around!<\/span><\/p>\n

Last Place on Earth Pet Shop<\/b><\/h3>\n

Located in Charlotte at 5655 N. Tryon St., Last Place on Earth is a family-owned pet store that\u2019s been in business for over 35 years. With the pet store\u2019s diverse and comprehensive range of supplies, you\u2019ll find something for <\/span>everyone<\/span> at Last Place on Earth!<\/span><\/p>\n

In particular, the pet store specializes in puppies, freshwater fish, birds, small animals, reptiles, and live feeder rodents. Plus, whether you need help getting a fish tank set up correctly or you just want to pick up a new dog food, Last Place on Earth has knowledgeable staff on hand who will be happy to steer you in the right direction.<\/span><\/p>\n

Let\u2019s Not Forget Pet Palace!<\/b><\/h3>\n

Sure, we\u2019re not actually a pet store. We do, however, provide just about any service you could ever want for your pets, including<\/span> professional grooming<\/span><\/a>,<\/span> doggy day care<\/span><\/a>, and<\/span> boarding services for dogs<\/span><\/a> and<\/span> cats<\/span><\/a>. There are many benefits to boarding<\/a> your pet and booking couldn\u2019t be any simpler! To make a reservation for your pet, just <\/span>click here<\/span><\/a>.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Curious about the full range of services<\/a> we offer? We welcome you to<\/span> visit our Charlotte-area Pet Palace location page here<\/span><\/a>. Located in South Charlotte? We have<\/span> a local Pet Palace there<\/span><\/a> as well.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
