Just a reminder that when you place an order with us, you're supporting a small #independentbusiness ❤️🐾

In the world of online shopping it's so easy to just assume every website is some big company.

But there's just one human behind Thoughtful Pets, me!

I had a chat with the #dogs and decided to set them some #NewYearsResolutions. Time will tell if there is any improvement, but I'm NOT holding my breath 😂

Let us know if your pets have any resolutions this year! 🐾

I am tentatively back in the office this week, catching up on emails and starting to process orders placed over Christmas.

As it's #NewYearsEve, I've also been prepping the dogs for the upcoming fireworks. Here's Walter in his anti-anxiety snood that helps him keep calm at this time of year 🐾

With the holiday season just around the corner (!!), please make sure you're aware of our updated opening hours.

As always, I recommend placing orders sooner rather than later to help account for any seasonal delays with couriers and Royal Mail.

Just a reminder during #fireworks season;

Soothing your pet and giving them attention is NOT a bad thing, and doesn't reinforce fearful behaviour. Our pets look to us for safety and happiness so providing them with comfort when they are stressed or anxious can really help ❤️🐾

This is Reggie. He was just told about daylight savings time. More like daylight starving time. 13/10 (TT: melandreggie)

"Get your paws off the walls!" should not be a sentence I have to shout regularly, but here we are...

A perfectly packed parcel with pup for scale.

(Say that five times fast >.<)

One of the last parcels going out for the week. Thank you to everyone who placed orders, and I hope your pets enjoy their goodies!

It's happened. I've received my first email about pre-ordering stock for Christmas...

Welp. Guess it's officially Christmas season for us retail people XD

Reason
12,543,539 why you need a cat (or 8). The frequency of cat purring is between 25 & 140 Hz
—the same frequency has been shown to aid in the healing of broken bones.

No stock take is complete without a bit of company! My bff's dog Winter is hanging with me today and double checking my counting skills.

I think he secretly wants to steal a treat or two...

It's the start of a new month (how the heck did August even sneak up like that?!), so it's #stocktakeday!

Lots of SANA Dog in stock at the moment and this has slowly become one of my best sellers <3

This sassy pup is Walter, who has been a member of our family since 2023.

Walter is a typical Australian Cattle Dog. Loud, has strong opinions & spends most of his time being a silly gremlin.

He loves to be involved in everything I do, so he's always inspecting our deliveries & out-going parcels!

Meet Stella, our wonderful rescue pup who we adopted back in 2013. There's a bit of German shepherd in there, a bit of collie, and a bit of mystery~

Stella LOVES water and swimming is by far her favourite activity. She's also my chief taste tester for Thoughtful Pets as she's a bit of a fusspot...

Here's a quick introduction so you can know a little bit about me and what I do!

My name is Sally and I own The Thoughtful Pet Food Store, a small online store that sells a hand-picked collection of eco-friendly & quality products.

I'm animal obsessed & super passionate about pet nutrition!

Myself and my little business have finally made it to BlueSky! Going to take a moment to figure everything out here, but I'm so looking forward to it all!
