🎉 Celebrating 10 years of Blue Barn with Lauren! 🎉

Many of our longtime customers may remember Lauren from her years helping customers throughout the store at Blue Barn. In recent years, she’s moved upstairs into an office admin role, helping keep things running behind the scenes.

At home, Lauren has an African Fat-tailed Gecko named Launcet, who apparently enjoys crawling on her phone and scrolling YouTube shorts 🦎📱

Coworkers know Lauren for her “Batman utility belt” level collection of snacks and random items, and according to Lauren herself, she has also never lost a fight against a Bengal Tiger 😂

Her current favourite product is Bosco and Roxy’s dog cookies:

Thank you, Lauren, for being part of the Blue Barn story over the last 10 years! 🐾

🌞 As warmer months approach, it’s important to support our farm friends’ electrolyte balance and hydration.

🧂 Our salt blocks and loose salt help support:
• Electrolyte balance
• Hydration and water intake
• Muscle and nerve function
• Normal digestion and mineral intake

Some options include garlic for added benefits or sulphur to help deter flies.

💧 Always place salt licks where fresh, clean drinking water is available.

✨ Stop by Blue Barn to learn more about which salt option is right for your animals.

🎉 Celebrating 5 years with Jitendra at Blue Barn! 🎉

Jitendra has been part of the Blue Barn team for five years, bringing knowledge, positivity, and plenty of personality to every shift. 😀

Working at Blue Barn, he quickly found a passion for organizing, inventory management, and learning everything he could about pet nutrition and products. Over the years, many customers have come to appreciate his product knowledge, recommendations, and friendly conversations.

One of Jitendra’s favourite things about working at Blue Barn is the community and the connections he’s built with coworkers and customers over the years. 🐾

Thank you, Jitendra, for five amazing years of hard work, learning, and dedication. We’re so happy to have you as part of the Blue Barn family! 🤩
