NO PUPPY MILL PROMISE
We have heard it. “Where do you get your puppies? Do they come from puppy mills?” It is a cold truth that there are breeders and animal hoarders that place money and greed over the welfare of their animals. We are very proud to report that we do not work with puppy mills. We work with USDAregulated breeders that love their pets and care for them properly. They are better as they are subject to surprise inspections. In addition to the USDA, our breeders are inspected by the state Department of Agriculture, local breeder associations, veterinarians, the American Kennel Club (AKC), Petland, Inc., and our stores. We simply will not condone the mistreatment of animals. We also provide the most recent USDA inspection reports to our customers. As USDA regulated and inspected breeders they are required to have veterinarian care onsite with every animal receiving a health check annually. In fact, there has never been a puppy mill raid on a USDA-inspected and regulated breeder. Even so, we are highly selective and only work with the best.
CANINE CARE CERTIFIED
Momentum is building and many of our breeders are now pursuing the Purdue University science-based Canine Care Certified program of which Petland is a sponsor. This breeder program sets forth rigorous, science-based, expert-reviewed standards for canine physical and behavioral welfare in areas such as nutrition, veterinary care, housing, handling and exercise. There are Five Pillars of Care and breeders seeking to be certified must meet or exceed rigorous standards for physical and behavioral welfare in areas such as nutrition, veterinary care, genetics, housing, handling, socialization, enrichment, and exercise. The Canine Care Certified program provides additional measures of assurance that breeders of certified dogs are attending to their dogs’ physical, genetic and behavioral health, and are committed to continuously raising the bar on the care and attention they offer to their dogs. These standards for adult dogs and puppies far exceed current regulatory programs.
WARRANTY
We want you to know that Petland is the safest place to obtain your next puppy. We also put our money where our mouth is and provide a 14 day viral and a 12 month congenital/hereditary warranty with our puppies. Our consulting veterinarian provides a health check to every puppy before it is available to the public and a free health check to the customer upon purchase.
LIFETIME HEALTH PROMISE
At Petland, we take it a step further. Every puppy is enrolled in our Lifetime Health Program. This program provides the customer with a store credit towards the purchase of another puppy for the original cost of their puppy, exclusive of dry goods and sales tax today, if their puppy dies for any reason, including old age, other than abuse, neglect, hypoglycemia, or a motor vehicle related accident. See the store for full details of this program but it is incredible. Your next puppy could be at no charge!
We take pride in the quality of puppies we provide to the public. We are the safest place to find your next puppy so why not come down and play with a few?

Small Pet Emergency Preparedness
Being prepared for an emergency whether it’s a tornado, wildfire or simply a gas leak, taking your pets with you should be a priority. Having a plan with options in place, an emergency kit and a first aid kit can save precious time if having to evacuate and can bring peace of mind if sheltering in place. Have a plan for your pets in case you’re not home when disaster strikes. Put the trusted friend/neighbor on your list of emergency contacts (including the microchip company) in case you’re unavailable. There are numerous suggestions for emergency kits but here are the basics.
1 | Documents
Have copies of veterinarian records, vaccination records, rabies certificate, medicines, microchip info, proof of ownership/ adoption records, important contact info, pet/s description and recent photos of you with each pet, all in a waterproof container.
2 | Essential items
Keep a two-week supply of food - in a waterproof container if not canned, water and medicine for each pet, collapsible but sturdy dishes, manual can opener and spoon, flea, tick, and heartworm preventative, collar with ID tag, leash, harness and pet carrier.
3 | Additional items
If possible the kit can also include familiar toys, a blanket and a bed, a first aid kit, paper towels and cleaning supplies, plastic bags, a litter box with litter, and stakes and tie-outs.
