Natural Pawz and Heights Urban Dog Join Forces to Bring Natural Pawz Heights to Houston, Texas

Dog lovers in Houston, Texas have come to love the dog boutiques, Heights Urban Dog and Natural Pawz, and now the two are combining forces to bring customers Natural Pawz Heights.

Partnering was only natural since both stores are locally owned and operated, and provide customers with natural pet food brands like Precise, Innova, Solid Gold, and The Honest Kitchen. "We all share the same vision of natural pet products, putting four-legged customers first and we enjoy being active in the local pet community," said Biff Picone, co-owner of Natural Pawz.

Natural Pawz Heights: a Shared Vision

"Coming together to create Natural Pawz Heights will allow us to benefit the Heights pet community even more. In addition, it will allow me to focus on my passion: pets, nutrition and rescue. We plan to continue to host adoption and fund raising events for the benefit of the animals in our community as well as some new and exciting things," said Teresa Bues, owner of Heights Urban Dog. "Biff and Nadine care about your pet's health. They carefully select products, continually train their staff, and want to be a resource for customers," added Bues.

According to Nadine Joli-Coeur, co-owner of Natural Pawz, both Heights Urban Dog and Natural Pawz have referred customers to each other's stores. So they've really been working together for a while and Natural Pawz Heights will just be an extension of that relationship.

Natural Pawz Heights will continue to provide natural cat and dog treats such as dehydrated yams, beef jerky, bully sticks, and Fruitables.
