Hey everyone
I'm gonna start up a natural dog store, doggie daycare, day hikes, cageless kennels type place and would love some feedback. 1st - where? I'm west coast right now but have no ties. I'm looking for smallish town, hippie, dog lovers (aren't we all).
2nd - what else? how would you like you dogs to be pampered? Mine seem to like a long hike and a cool floor to lay on afterwards but I know there's more.
3rd - good idea? It feels right to us.
Thanks

Mesa, Montana, Kat, Ryan

It's not a small town but I think people in Minneapolis, Minnesota would be into something like that. It's a very liberal/hippie town especially around "the lakes" and South Minneapolis. There's lots of green space and people are friendly so it does have a lot of the same benefits as a smaller place.

Or maybe Iowa City, IA? It's a university town and I think they might accept something like that.

Also, Northfield, MN has two colleges and a population of 15,000. It still has a cute downtown area (although the chain stores are coming on strong... the suburbs are coming!)

My all-time favorite is Woodstock, Vermont. You could also try Burlington if you think the business would be better there.

Okay, and my dog is a pushover. She likes space to run, dogs her own size to play with, and peanut butter. Boy, does she like peanut butter....

I think if you had your own special gourmet dog treats to send home at the end of each dog's stay that dogs loved, that would seal the deal.
