SaskPets is Saskatchewan's Pet Community! Online Pet Directory, Local Products and more!
(1)

SaskPets was created to build a community to connect pet owners with local businesses, products, services, rescues, activities and events that are all about our special family members, our pets! We love to see people supporting other local businesses as much as possible which is why SaskPets has listings of only-local businesses within Saskatoon and a 30km radius. We want to help make it easy for

pet owners to search and find what they are looking for locally as much as possible. Whether you are looking for a handmade dog collar, a new groomer or vet or want to find out which stores and patios are pet friendly. This directory doesn't just focus on dogs and cats but also birds, reptiles, small animals and fish, because they are also beloved members of the family.

Local Business Feature: Passing Paws Aquamation

Passing Paws is a small family business that provides Pet Aftercare services using an alternative to cremation for pets that have crossed the Rainbow Bridge.

Aquamation uses water to return the pet back to nature. It is a gentle process that takes about 20 hours, the only solid remains are the mineral ash of the bones which are then processed into a powdered consistency and dried for several more days before being returned to the owner. Passing Paws provides both private and shared aquamation options.

The family behind this small business are Lisa and her two daughters Courtney and Brooklyn. They have been involved in the Pet Inudusry for years and started Passing Paws in 2017 after hearing about a greener and gentler way to respect a Pet whom has passed as well as Mother Nature.

Passing Paws works with a variety of Vet Clinics in and around Saskatoon and if your Vet is not one of their partner clinics you can request it directly through your Vet and have them contact Passing Paws. Along with the Aquimation process, Passing Paws also has a variety of Pet Urns and other keepsakes to help memorialize your Pet.

Fun Fact: Along with Dogs and Cats, Aquamation is gentle enough for small pets like rabbits, hamsters, reptiles, birds and more.

Featured Adoptable Pet from Regina Cat Rescue: Jana & Jaxon

Jana and Jaxon are a super sweet bonded pair that were left behind by their owner to fend for themselves on the streets. Fortunately they were found by RCR's Community Cat Team with a single kitten in tow. All three were brought into care with RCR and placed in foster homes and are very grateful to be safe in a home again.

Both cats are very relaxed and affectionate. Jaxon is a master head butter and purr machine. Jana is gentle and laid back. They both love attention and playing with toys. Jana and Jaxon love snuggling each other and their people, and are eager to find a true forever home that will give them the love and adoration they deserve.

Happy Halloween! If your pet is dressed up today share a picture below.

Let's talk about Bully Sticks, Bull Pizzles, Pizzle Sticks... What are they? They are a natural chew for your dog made from...Beef/Steer Pen*s. That's right, you read that correctly! Some of you may have known that already but many people do not. Now why would you want to give your dog one of these? Well they are a natural, highly digestible chew, decently tough and few dogs will turn them down. Plus, chewing is a natural dog behavior that produces "feel good" chemicals in your dog's brain, such as dopamine, serotonin, and endorphins. Chewing can also promote a strong jaw and help keep their teeth clean. When looking for a Bully Stick for your dog my recommendation is to purchase from smaller, local pet stores as they are more likely to carry quality products. Look for ones that are 'less stinky' (I smell them in-store myself😉), otherwise your house will smell pretty unpleasant when your dog is chewing on it. Or, if you get a stinky one, make it an outside chew! Always supervise your dog while they are chewing on it, and wash your hands after handling them. They are a higher calorie chew (but low in fat!) which means they are best fed occasionally. Is this something you give your dog?

Local Business Feature: @primalpawsyxe Primal Paws YXE is a small business in Saskatoon that makes and creates freeze-dried treats and meal toppers for dogs and cats. Primal Paws YXE is located inside the Gather Local Market on Ave B South in Saskatoon. The outside market area is pet-friendly, but unfortunately due to food services, pets are not allowed indoors. Along with their freeze-dried products, Primal Paws YXE also carries a variety of other pet products including other treats and accessories from other small Saskatchewan pet businesses. Primal Paws YXE freeze-dried treats and meal toppers are made with locally sourced ingredients. Due to the freeze-drying process, they retain most of the natural flavors and nutrients of the raw ingredients, making them extra tasty and nutritious. Freeze dried products have a great shelf life without having to use preservatives and are easy and convenient to use. They have a variety of treat and meal topper options available and continue coming out with new products so check back regularly! You can purchase products in-store as well as online. Fun Fact: The wall art at their in-person store was done by a local artist that specializes in pet portraits -> @bhillstudio

They are based in Regina but are at the Saskatoon Farmer's Market on Koyl Ave Saturdays from 8am - 2pm and Sundays from 10am - 3pm. They have a variety of treats, chews, accessories and more for dogs and cats!

Did you know Sheep (and Donkeys) like swiss chard!

Do you think your Dog would enjoy a Burger cookie?! Last time I was in Saskatoon and stopped at Barley + Blossom - Pet Boutique I picked up a few different fun and unique treats for my pets to try out. One of them was the Meaty Bubbles I shared a few weeks ago, another was an Iced Cookie shaped and decorated like a burger. The cookie was made locally in Saskatoon by a small business, Happy Puppy Co. They make and create healthy, natural, fun and unique iced cookies in lots of different designs for different seasons and holidays. They also make custom doggy cakes for birthdays and other occasions. Has your dog had the pleasure of enjoying one of Happy Puppy Co's treat creations?
