While we all work hard to protect our rights to own pets, the industry is growing by leaps and bounds. The pet food industry, the pet population, the pet service industry, and boarding kennels are growing faster each year. The animal food industry is the second biggest food service industry in the country. Dog food sales are off the chart. Dog toys, and sales of dogs and cats continue to grow much faster than the economy. We are winning. PETA, shove that up your collective hats.
