The mission of this business is to provide specialized pet products and services to their customer base, and to service those customers to meet their needs for healthy, happy pets. Pets are an important part of many peoples lives, and this business strives to ensure that their part of the pet-owner relationship is of the utmost quality. Their objective is customer service . By that, they mean 1) that we will provide sound advice to all customers regardless of the type of pet they own, 2) that we will supply effective products to fulfill their needs and the needs of their pets, and 3) that we will special order any and all types of small animals and their products through our breeders, distributors, and manufacturers to satisfy our customers needs for all types of pets, unlike our competitors. The following reiterating quotes from the owner reflect the business philosophy; We are saltwater and freshwater aquarium experts. We pride ourselves on building and maintaining healthy, happy aqua-environments to support this ever-growing hobby. However, we place the same expertise and emphasis on all of our other small animals, providing the highest level of customer service to ensure a superior quality pet-owner relationship. The economy downturn did not affect the pet business as much as others because people still had to care for, feed, and maintain their pets as they had to do with the rest of their family. A GREAT FAMILY BUSINESS!!!
