Stone’s Pet Shop
1122 Forest Ave., Pacific Grove | (831) 375-4471 | stonespetshop.com
Dogs and cats, like their humans, try to resist the big-box stores and support local goods and services. And when it comes to getting pampered, eating right and amassing the newest bouncy balls, Stone’s Pet Shop gets five out of five paws. The store does crazy dog hair-dos, like a full wash and blow-out and even temporary fur/hair dyes. (A simple wash is just $12.) As for food choices, even the pickiest kittens can eat sustainably; Stone’s carries Open-Farm brand pet food, which is made from humanely-raised animals and free of grain. That’s conscious consumer living, for animals too.
