This morning, we had the opportunity to talk to the amazing folks at News 4 Great Day in St. Louis!

Our CEO, Mark, gave pet parents the run down on the details of our Halloween Paw-ty's this weekend at ALL Treats Unleashed locations, shared some ideas for what to include in the purrr-fect "Boo Basket" for your furry friends, and gave a heads up to our Cottleville Pie Eating Contest on November 7th!

Leo, Mark's dog, made quite the impression and throughly enjoyed his time in the spotlight (or maybe he just enjoyed the slice of pumpkin pie, we will never know).

Thank you SO much to Great Day St. Louis for having us today!
