We want to make it easy for you to treat your pets to the best this holiday season. Here’s our gift guide to some of our favourite products, to help make sure there is something under the tree for your furry companion. And, to spread the love to Canadian Shelter Animals this winter, we are matching donations! With every PetsEssentials purchase, there is an opportunity at checkout to donate to Redemption Paws - we’ll make sure your impact is felt, by matching your donation. If you love giving extra, consider buying an organic, handmade MiaMuji toy this holiday.
