Drew’s K-9 Korner

Drew is very knowledgeable about quality dog foods and supplements. Drews K-​9 corner is the only place I can get NUTRISCA brand dog food, a very high quality kibble .
They have a good selection of leashes and collars and some good books on dogs.
Drew and his wife are very knowledgeable and passionate about local dog issues and veternarians.
They schedule anesthesia — free teeth cleaning at their location for an affordable price.
Support local merchants and go to Drew’s K-​9 corner.

Wow! Thank you guys! Got Coco’s teeth cleaned and I picked up the best dog food!
If you want to shop isles looking for dog outfits (no shame– I do often) this is not the place; if you want the best dog food available, at the best price (yes, I called around) come here!

This is an AWESOME Pet store. You can tell the Owner of the store ginuienly cares about his dogs, and yours as well. Drew is one of the nicest people you will ever meet. Hes extremely knowledgable and great to talk with. He has an amazing inventory in the store and only serves the best quality items. I live in San Bruno and even though its a commute, this is the only place I go to get my pet supplies. Thank you Drew!

I dont have a dog but I was looking for a certain size ceramic water bowl for my bunny that I couldn’t find at other pet stores and I had seen this place while walking around the neighborhood so I figured I might as well go look at what they had.
As soon as I opened the door, their dog ran up to us barking! And the owners just laughed & said come on in, but the dog kept barking and was blocking the small doorway. I just yelled over him and asked if they had the bowl I needed. They said no and I left.
I get this is a dog store, and maybe some dog lovers would have appreciated that greeting? I found it off putting and a little scary. You really shouldn’t have your dog barking at customers, or if he does, at least seem concerned and move him out of the doorway?! I wonder if maybe he smelled the rabbit on me and he went a little crazy, but I was more concerned with the owners blasé attitude than the fact the dog actually was barking, that’s what dogs do.

Well, a little background info before I begin my review.
I have a Golden Retriever who is about to be 4 years old this April of 2013.
Great, healthy pup, no health problems to be concerned about, when I first adopted him at 10 weeks, I started him off with Nutro. For about a year when my financial status was not so great, I switched him to Pedigree to save money, but after that year, I put him back on Nutro, feeling like it was a healthier diet.
I just moved to San Francisco from Las Vegas right before Christmas.
I still had a new bag of Nutro so plenty of food for the holidays.
But now it’s late January and I’m almost out of food so I fire up Google and discover that there is no Petsmart around here, hahaha.
I called Pet Food Express first and asked him if they had any Nutro Large Breed Adult dog food, they said they were all out.
So I look for the next closest pet store, and find Drew’s K9 Corner.
I called and asked them for Nutro, and in an appalled sort of tone, they suggested I reconsider the diet I’ve been choosing for my dog, and start switching to a holistic diet.
I asked her to explain «holistic» and over the phone she told me all about the difference between diets like Iams, Science Diet, and Nutro versus holistic dog foods like Orijin and Nutrisco.
I asked her for the prices of these holistic foods, and considering the same size bag was only $ 10-​$ 15 more than the Nutro I had been buying, I decided the health benefits were probably worth the extra 50 cents per pound.
I asked her what time they close and she said they closed at 6pm (which is was 6pm when I called) but she said they’d stay open for me to come in and check out their foods.
I get there a few minutes later and Drew was there to greet me. He was very kind and informational. He told me everything I needed to know, and then some, about holistic foods, raw diets, and a brand called Honest Kitchen. He even gave me free samples of it before I had even decided to buy anything.
I also appreciate that he explained all of the benefits of leading holistic brand called Orijin (also the priciest brand that they had) and after explaining to me why it was such a good brand, he did not try to persuade me to buy it just yet.
He told me it would be better to start with the Nutrisco because it’s components are not as complex as Orijin, and since my dog is not used to holistic foods, the Nutrisco would be easier for him to digest in the beginning.
It’s nice to know that he was considerate of everything including my dog’s digestion of the new diet. I like Drew and his wife, they are very nice and very eager to share a lot of information with you for you and your dog’s benefit.
I only gave 4 stars because I think it would be unfair to give them 5 stars when they are the only pet store I have been to here in San Francisco.
If I go to other pet stores, and still like Drew’s K9 Corner better, I will come back and update my review :)

I’m fortunate to have Drew as my neighborhood pet store. He’s extremely knowledgable and carries only the best. His dog Bella is super sweet and they are both very hospitable!

This is a fantastic family run pet store, selling only the best quality pet treats, food and supplements. Our Weimeraner had been suffering from stomach problems and we had tried everything when we found Drew’s. Drew recommended us trying a gluten free version of Honest Kitchen. Problem solved! Drew and his wife could not be nicer people who truly care about our pets and their owners. Thank you!

This place rocks. I feel lucky to have found it, I wish I had found it long ago. They have a good selection of the quality pet foods you are looking for. If you have high standards with what you serve your charges, shop here. The staff (Drew) is very knowledgeable and helpful.

There are limited pet shops in this area, and as my usual one was closed, I had to seek elsewhere for my cat food. I first off asked if they carried the type I was looking for, which is a good brand but not holistic. The employee (owner perhaps?) was immediately forcing his ideals down my throat and telling me I should switch foods. This may be what some people want when it comes to customer service but its not for me. I worked many years in the pet industry myself, as well as studied animal nutrition in college, and I have come to the conclusion that while holistic foods are great, there are also good quality foods within the bigger brands that are less expensive and are a good compromise. On top of this, he sold me cat treats that I just discovered to be almost two months past the «best before» date. In closing, I will not be returning. Pet’s Corner is much preferred.
I do respect the owner of this shop for carrying only high quality, holistic and generally morally-​sound pet food brands.

My pup rottie had persistent loose stool and drew worked with me to fix the problem. i found out about this location when i was searching around for stores that carried orijin. drew recommended «honest kitchen perfect form enzyme supplements» and the pup didnt take it well. (threw up the whole day). He sounded genuinely concerned and offered me store credit when I returned the supplements. He generously gave me half a bottle of another enzyme supplement that he has been giving to his dog, Bella for free and that seemed to solve the problem!
Thats the kind of customer service that you won’t be able to get from pet food express or petsmart

Bad Bad customer services.
maybe he knows lots of holistic food but. services NAHHHHHHH…
I got this coupon from some company to get 1 free dog foods but there was section that I have to indicated the certain store so I choose this store. cuz he carry lots of HOLISTIC FOODS SO…
He refused the coupon!!! even it indicated his store address and everything… reason that he said
«Company they never send me money back!!!»
This is pretty darn ridiculous that he gave up the long time customer over the coupons!!!
Have A GOOD business Drew
Can’t believe he running that business over some yrs…

I initially found Drew’s when I was doing (a lot) of research on what to feed my new dog – a one yr old rescue Lab. Drew’s is one of the few places that carry Primal (a raw food), which I had heard good things about. I found the owner to be very knowledgeable and super helpful about the brands they carry. He is up on the latest kinds of high quality dog food and only carries food made from US or Canada (so nothing from China, etc.). I really appreciate his help in finding the right food combo for my dog and that he carries the best brands. No they aren’t cheap but the price is the same as other similar dog food stores and if you want cheap dog food, there are lots of options out there elsewhere. I think the owner and his wife are great and I like supporting a local small business.

I kept walking around and around the area looking for this hole in the wall and finally found it! They have a good variety of quality pet food. As a first time dog owner, I did a lot of research about all the best stuff to feed my dog. I came here, and the owner recommended a pretty good dry dog food (supposedly the best out there in the market is Orijen)…but it was pretty pricey too! Apparently, they only carry good food because crap like Iams, Science diet, and Purina isn’t available.
The owner talks a lot though. I acted dumb for the most part because he seemed to be so interested in what he was saying. Sometimes, I felt like he was bullshiting and just running his mouth but I can filter out about 50−70% of what he says is good info. He was really nice but because he likes talking so much, he came off a little condescending at times. His wife was pretty nice too, but she has about five pounds of make up on which can be distracting especially while her husband talks and talks and talks… haha, it’s hard to stay focused; I usually end up day dreaming…
They’re generally a really nice couple and they have the sweetest old dog. I guess, if you’re stuck in a store all day… you’d crave for interaction from the outside world too!
I’d come more often if things weren’t so expensive…

Whooaaa. This guy knows his stuff. I have walked by this store so many times and have simply missed it! Inside is a tiny store specializing in holistic pet food and products. Drew is very very knowledgeable and loves to chat. I learned so much!

Drop by them for the first time when I was walking with my baby dog, and stopped by to check out what kinds of product they have.
For the first time I got to know various holistic pet food. human graded high quality food for your pet pals!!! I really love it and as well as my baby!!! He does not eat ordinary kibble food anymore because he knows this stuff way~~~ better!
Tried their anesthesia-​free dental care to dogs and cats cleaning program and disappointed, don’t know what they did, my baby still had plaque on his teeth, wonder if they just brushed his teeth only, have no idea… will not try that again.

After supporting Petco for far too long with their standard kiibble which includes animal by-​products, grains and quality standards that barely meets livestock feed requirements — I was completely delighted to speak directly with Drew who walked me through the various brands of holistic food available today. He has a wealth of knowledge about the different nutritional needs of different ages, breeds and sizes of dogs — in addition to information on all of the major brands, and their manufacturing processes.
I don’t think our dogs will be quite so interested in our food any longer, as now they are very excited to receive some Orijen and Honest Kitchen dehydrated food. Spending a little extra on some high quality food and supporting a local institution is well worth it. Give Drew a visit, your pet will thank you.

If you feed your cat Fancy Feast, look elsewhere. This small store specializes in holistic, organic, and all-​natural pet foods for cats and dogs. Their selection of food and treats is extensive, and the owner is very knowledgeable about feeding your pet a natural diet. They don’t have a large selection of accessories (leashes, beds, etc.) but they have some basics to choose from.
The nicest thing is that although the products are top-​of-​the-​line and organic, their prices are extremely competitive. Worlds Best Litter sells for far less than at big box stores, and the food prices are on par with or less than other specialty pet stores.

I just couldn’t feed my dog kibble anymore. I was not ready for a full blown raw either. I mean, I personally was, but my tiny refrigerator was loudly objecting. So I found something awesome: The Honest Kitchen (Taa-​daaa!!).
It is dehydrated raw food, easy to prepare, easy to store, and it will do wonders to your dog energy, coat, and shape. Oh, and k9 corner carries it!
It is family business and owners are very lovely and knowledgeable. They are all about raw and holistic and natural and organic. You know, the type of stuff that everything should be made of :) They carry entire line of Honest Kitchen, and have lots of frozen raw patties options as well. Another product they carry is grounded bones/​organs/​muscle in a tube form. You just slice a piece and add it to your dogs food for a nice raw kick. Doesn’t take too much room in the freezer either.
So, love your dog, go with raw, visit Drew’s K-​9 Corner.

Recently I decided to try a more natural diet; bazillions of bananas and good blender required. Not one to dive in before some basic analysis, I needed a subject. Since it would be horrible of me to do any kind of testing on a bunny, I thought I’d use the dog.
Off to the webernets I went to find out more about kibble alternatives. Lots of google later, I found Honest Kitchen. Do your own research about your dog’s diet and health, but this stuff rocks.
Ordering off the internet worked for a while, but my forgetful prickishness kicked in at one point and I found myself with a day of food left and no placed order. Shit. Fade to black.
Galloping in comes Drew’s K-​9 Corner. I’ll spare the half-​ass, pathetic excuse for prose I’m inclined to tap out and cut to the chase.
This place is great. The product selection is thoughtful, the assistance very able and the experience carries a feeling of accomplishment for your dedication to your pets health.
(no animals were harmed in the making of this review; no experimentation was done, I just wanted to find my pup healthier shit)

So much better than your generic, large pet store!
The owners here are great, they’ll tell you everything you need to know about the products you are thinking of purchasing, which is more than I can say for any other pet store I’ve ever been to. They’ll make suggestions about products for you that match your pet’s needs, and don’t sell anything that could potentially be harmful for them.
I wandered in here after doing a search for a specific dog food brand that I was feeding my girl, and they explained exactly how to use this food, the benefits of it, etc.
After talking to them for a while (I think I ended up hanging out in there for like half an hour or so), I found out that they were thinking of starting a doggy daycare since their own dog was getting lonely and didn’t have any company. I promptly jumped at that opportunity since I was looking for a daycare that would provide individualized attention to my pup (she just came back from training, see previous post) and was thrilled to learn that they would be willing to take her in and provide the consistency in training that I was afraid she wouldn’t get elsewhere.
Today is her first day there with them and they were at the store bright and early at 7:45 am (even though they don’t open until noon). She’ll probably be playing with only their dog today, so she may not be quite as wiped out at the end of the day as she would be if she went to a bigger, more popular daycare, but I’m okay with that because I know she’ll get that special attention and consistent training that she needs.
Stop in there if you want some really good pet products, and if you’re looking for a daycare without too many dogs running amok, ask them about it. Your kid could become a playmate of mine!
UPDATE:
So I picked Keala, the wee one’s name in case you didn’t know, or wanted to know, up from the store yesterday and she was as happy as a clam. Even though she only got to play with one dog, she was just as pooped out as she would’ve been if she went to another daycare with more dogs running around. So suffice it to say I’m a happy mother!
