Super Cute Raincoats

So we spent the week in the northern mountains of Quebec, about 3 hours north of Montreal. Beautiful lake, lots of wildlife and nice weather. But let me tell you the nights are getting cold! About 5 degrees Celsius. Throw some rain in the mix and we are in fall weather. Amazing how fast the summer goes. Hey the kids are starting school this week! Anyways while we were walking in the evening around the lake and it started to drizzle I thought about these raincoats for dogs.

The Dogit 2011 Clothing Collection for large dogs offers an assortment of raincoats, hoodies, polo shirts and tank tops for medium to XX-large sized dogs in fun, fashion colours.

You can get the red one here

You can get the blue one here

Smaller sizes are available. Contact me and I will get them up for you.

A little R&R.....

Hi all I won't be posting for a week as have decided last minute to head into the mountains for a week with the family. School starts soon and with all that has been going on haven't had the time to spend with the kids, so a week with no distractions (ie no internet access!) should be an experience. Cleanse the soul a bit. The website won't be up yet but amazon.ca will be functioning 24/7 as usual.

Anyway yesterday listed a few new parts in the morning. This one sure was the hit of the day, price sure can't be beat. We did a comparison search and with our discount and shipping included, nobody is even close.

Fluval Mini Power Compact Lamp, 13 Watt

The Fluval Mini Power Compact Lamp, 13 Watt, is a replacement light for the following tanks: Hagen Fluval Nano Shrimp Habitat, 7.9 gallons and Hagen Fluval Flora Aquatic Plant Kit, 7.9 gallons

Can't add pictures for some reason and have to go..... but check it out here

Have a great week and talk soon!

Our new website....almost.....

Ok this is the deal...as you have probably figured out, we sell discount pet supplies. We have been around for a long time and have been doing this kind of thing on a commercial level for a lot longer than we have on the retail level. Our businesses have been around for over 25 years. Our online selling history goes back about 5 years, starting with industrial products, then more commercial products and in the last few years online sales direct to consumers. We have been buying end lots, overstock, discontinued items and the like and storing them in our multiple Canadian and US distribution warehouses. We literally have millions of dollars of inventory that we sell to resellers primarily and now directly to online buyers. Mostly Amazon and the like, globally. Pete's Pets is a new branch of the same model. We had an opportunity to acquire a huge amount of inventory, with a continuous flow of new product. But most importantly we have personnel with vast expertise in the pet industry. It is an exciting new venture and we will enjoy the learning curve. What we have is fantastic, new, quality items and tremendous expertise in handling inventory, shipping and customer service. We are excited to start it off and look forward to servicing your pet supply needs (at ridiculously low prices). We are in the process of building our website at www.petespets.ca and would love to hear any comments you may have to make it a great buying experience. We're crazy busy right now and it might take a little time to get it up and running fully but you can always find our products on our amazon webstore here.

Thanks for everything

Cheers Pete

Pete's Pets ships to Canada FROM Canada

Just to be clear (because sometimes there are so many add-ons of freight, duties and tariffs when buying online from the USA) Pete's Pets sells to Canadians in Canadian dollars and ships from our distribution warehouse in Quebec, Canada.

Oh yeah and WE PAY FOR THE SHIPPING - ALWAYS

Take this example. It is one of the most popular items we sell, But, at the same time its one of the most complained about because "I can buy it cheaper on amazon.com" . The question is can you? Here is a real life price check at 7:21 am on August 5th, 2013.

This is a great product first of all, it's the Fluval G3 Advanced Filtration System:

Check out on Amazon.com on sale for $247.85:

Ends up costing you $401.29

Now check out Pete's Pets on Amazon.ca, btw the cheapest by far at $345.92:

Oh yeah with the discount(for the month of August)ends up costing you $311.33.

I consider $90 a heck of a lot of money, and a heck of a difference. Be sure you see the totals before you make your decision. The marked price is not always what you end up paying.

By the way, if you are interested in The Fluval G3 these are the specs:

Hagen Explorariums

These are super cool for your reptiles. Inexpensive, attractive and simple set-up.

The Exo Terra Explorarium is extremely easy to setup. Simply remove it from the carrying case, undo the two side buttons, then hang it in your preferred location. The durable nylon provides optimal ventilation and allows ultraviolet rays from fluorescent UVB lights, or the sun, to penetrate deep inside the enclosure.

- Easy and fast to setup

- For indoor and outdoor use

- Extremely easy to transport

- Extra-strong nylon mesh

- Optimal ventilation

- Escape proof

- Equipped with hanging clip for plants, glow lights or branches

What you cannot quite see for the image is actually how big these things are. It is a huge terrarium, quick release, full screen for indoor and outdoor use, the small version measures 12-inch diameter by 18-inch height and the large version 24-inch diameter by 36-inch height. But at the same time fold down flat if not in use or to transport. Brilliant idea.

$33 small, $70 large, how can you go wrong?

You can see them and buy them here
