To Our Clients, Friends, and the Dogs We Care For,
At HHH Canine Lodge & Ranch, every product on our shelves is there for a reason. We do not carry products because they are trendy, heavily marketed, or popular online. We carry products because we believe in them, trust their sourcing, and, most importantly, trust them for the health of your dogs.
After careful consideration, we have decided to discontinue Open Farm products from our store.
Recently, Open Farm expanded into Tractor Supply Co. stores nationwide while continuing to claim they can maintain the same sourcing standards, ingredient quality, and production practices at a much larger scale. What disappointed us most was not simply the expansion itself, but the lack of communication and transparency with the independent retailers who helped build and support their brand from the beginning.
Independent pet stores like ours were the backbone of their growth. We educated clients, stood behind our products, and built trust in the brand before national retail expansion.
As many of you know, I personally handpick every food, treat, supplement, and product we carry. I take that responsibility seriously. In my opinion, companies cannot scale that rapidly, maintain the same sourcing standards, keep prices competitive, and preserve the same level of quality control without some compromise along the way. With Open Farm now reportedly up for sale as well, I no longer feel confident standing behind the brand the way I once did.
And if I would not confidently feed it to my own dogs, I will not continue selling it to yours.
This decision was made with the long-term health of our clients’ dogs in mind — not profits, convenience, or brand recognition.
We are grateful to all of you who continue to trust us, support small businesses, and value transparency, quality, and education over marketing hype. That trust means everything to us.
Thank you for supporting HHH Canine Lodge & Ranch, Holistic Healthy Hounds, and the independent businesses that truly care about the dogs first.
