All for Pets operates from its superb location at the corner of Cowrie Street, just one short block from the Sechelt promenade where you and your beloved (pet) take your regular strolls. Here you can find everything imaginable to help you care for your pet, as well as expert advice and a friendly greeting. Owner Erika McLean wants to help. She knows that, as confusing as food do’s and don’ts are for humans, the same overwhelming situation applies when it comes to providing optimal nutrition for your pet. She purchased the business in 2002 and since then, the All for Pets team has seen the pet food industry change a lot. “Over the past fifteen years,” says McLean, “the industry has grown so much that it can be confusing and hard to choose what is best for your pet.” The team of employees likes to keep current. Many have been with All for Pets for years; for some, it was their first high school job, while McLean looks forward to welcoming others back from maternity leave. ALL FOR PETS Kids and dogs love to stop by the store. Dogs get a treat, and kids get to see some non-standard creatures. McLean says, “Yes, we do have fish, quite a wide selection of easy-care and interesting species. During the summer our koi and goldfish find homes in neighbourhood ponds. We often have frogs, hamsters, finches, and budgies. Just let us know what animal you would like, and we will try our best to get it for you. Over the years, many bearded dragons have arrived specially for our customers.” WORDS | NANCY PINCOMBE PHOTOGRAPHY | EDMUND ARCEO Sechelt’s many active older folks enjoy their pets. We asked if All for Pets has products that are especially helpful. “Definitely,” says McLean. “Pets help to keep us active and are great companions, but some days they need more stimulation. We have toys and treat dispensers that will keep both cats and dogs busy. Each dog is unique, and we have a product that will let everyone know about your dog. ‘Bark Notes’ are messages you can put on the collar or leash. Anxious, Do Not Feed, Princess, Blind, and Friendly are just a few of these. Lights for the leash on those dark days and bear bells to let the bears know you are in their neighbourhood are something else we can’t do without around here.” All for Pets takes its role and location in the heart of Sechelt seriously. They support many a long list of causes, such as school events, Rotary auctions, roller derby, SPCA, Gibsons Wildlife Rescue, salmon enhancement, the Downtown Business Association, and the Legion’s Poppy Fund. As well, they send pet food that has been damaged in shipping to the food bank. All this, plus they like to be able to greet everyone, people and pets, by name. summer 2018 43
