🐾 Celebrating Independent Retailer's – Why Small Matters (Especially for Your Dog!) 🐾

Hi from Betty’s Paw Store!
I’m Betty, the human behind this little online Natural Dog Treat business and I wanted to take a moment to celebrate something close to my heart: Independent Retailer Awareness Day, coming up this July.

You might be wondering—what’s that all about?

Well, it’s a day to shine a light on small, independent businesses like mine. The one-person bands. The passionate dream-chasers. The dog crazy ladies. It’s about supporting the folks who pour their hearts into their small business', who remember your name (and more importantly your dog’s!), and who are doing things a little differently—with love, care, and often, a few muddy paw prints.

Why It Matters—for You and Your Pup

Here at Betty’s Paw Store, I specialize in natural, healthy dog treats. Our treats are 100% natural and have No weird ingredients. No nasties. No additives. Just honest, tail-wagging goodness.

Every order I pack, every treat I make or source—it's all done with intention. I started this because I wanted better for my own dogs, and I know so many of you feel the same way.

When you choose to shop with independent retailers like me, you’re not just buying a product. You're supporting someone who truly cares. Someone who's probably up at 11pm labeling treat bags by hand while their dog snores nearby (true story!).

How You Can Support Small Pet Businesses

🦴 Shop small – Whether online or at local markets, every purchase from a small biz makes a huge difference.
📣 Spread the word – Share your favorite finds with fellow pet parents.
💬 Leave a review – Honest, kind words mean the world and help others find us too.
🐶 Engage – Tag us in your pup pics, join the convo, or just say hi!

A Big Thank You

Whether you’ve been with me since the start or just discovered Betty’s Paw Store, I’m so grateful. It’s your support that keeps the lights on, the treats stocked, and the dream alive.

This Independent Retailer Awareness Day, I hope you’ll take a moment to support the little guys—whether it’s me, your favorite local bakery, or a handmade soap maker down the road. We’re all in this together.

With love (and lots of treats),
Betty 🐾
