Our Story

It all started in 2005 when my husband David and I relocated our family (2 dogs and
2 cats) from Reno to Central Oregon in an effort to slow down and spend more
time outdoors ( not in traffic).  As animal lovers we wanted to start a pet related
business that encompassed eco-friendly products and healthy food and treats
unique to Bend.   Along the way we discovered how little accurate information on
pet nutrition there is available to the public.  It was disheartening to find such
inconsistency in published literature which discussed the best foods for your
dog/cat.  It was then we knew that  we could at least lend a helping hand to those
confused about pet nutrition.  We do the research on food, manufacturing
companies/practices, and the latest trends out there so you don't have to!


Healthy Paws is a family owned, independently operated dog and cat
specialty/supply store located in beautiful, dog friendly Bend, Oregon.  Our
mission is to provide the best dog and cat products, locally when available,  that are
unique to the area but are also highly durable and functional.  We strive to find
eco-friendly products ( recycled material, durable, organic or natural, and products
that are regional so they don't have to be transported from far away.)  The foods
we carry exceed our standards for excellence in pet nutrition.  We specialize in raw
and grain free diets, many varieties.  Of course, our products have to meet our rigid
selection criteria- we won't bring just anything in because we think it will sell.  It
needs to be unique and the companies have to be reputable.  That being said, we
stand by the products we sell 100%.

Come and see us in  Northwest Crossing.   Bring your pooch and get him a tasty
treat to go ( complimentary, of course!)

Consider adoption and please spay or neuter your pet!
