I was wondering where everyone buying puppy or dog food from
online? web sites...?
Local boutique
Chain stores like Petco, Petfood express...

We buy ours from a local boutique pet shop, sometimes from Pet Valu (local pet food chain).
We use Wellness Core, which we usually get at Petsmart or Petco.
I buy from petflow.com on an auto-ship schedule every 6 weeks. I make the minimum purchase amount to qualify for free shipping. On the occasion when I run low before the next shipment, I buy at local pet supply boutiques (at a much higher price!) to hold me over till the petflow shipment arrives.
I used to buy from chain store pet food express but then got to know there is another local store have almost $5- 10 lower priced for puppy food.
Since Theo is getting bit hesitant to finish his food now a days thought of switching to Orijen or Acana but notices none of the local store have it.
Local, local, local! I try to buy local no matter what product I am buying. I would rather spend more and keep the money in our county and support small business owners. I have a choice of about 10 boutiques now that sell 90% of our recommended foods :)
I buy from a locally owned feed store that only sells good foods.
In my area, we have a chain of stores called Hollywood Feed. They only sell premium brands of food, treats, and toys. Such a great group of very knowledgable people in their store. Most of their brands have a "Buy 12 and get 1 free" promotion going. When that free bag is calculated into the cost, they are cheaper than anyplace else that I can find including Chew.com and Amazon. Besides, I love the personal service that we get there. They now know us by name and always give us a big welcome when we come in of course, that may be due to the fact that we spend over $300.00 a month there!! (Remember guys - we have 6 dogs, plus we are fostering 2 others - - plus one King of the House Cat) All eating quality food and treats from there.
The feed stores do often carry a good selection of premium foods, and many people aren't aware of that. Star (Goldie's mom) found some of our recommended brands at a wild bird seed & supply store in her area, where she never would have thought to look.
I feed Acana and used to buy the food at a local store. For the last few months I've been ordering online through Wag.com (they deliver in 2 days for free), or doggiefood.com, or petfooddirect.com, or petflow.com, whichever is cheapest at the moment.
I was buying from a local pet boutique store. I really respected the owner and her knowledge about dog food. But they moved away and the store closed. So now I go down the freeway a little longer to Danville Pet Store. It is another local small business. This owner also seems to really know her stuff. I prefer to support these businesses so if the prices go a few dollars one way or the other I am not paying that much attention right now.
