Happy 28th Anniversary, Animal Outfitters!

Animal Outfitters celebrated its 28th anniversary on Military Road with special deals, happy pups, and plenty of tail-wagging fun. Locally owned by Cathy and supported by her “Golden Staff,” the pet shop has built a loyal following with unique pet products, quality foods and treats, and the kind of personal service that keeps customers and their four-legged friends coming back.

Yesterday was a tail-waggin' good time at Animal Outfitters on Military Road. The locally owned pet shop celebrated its 28th anniversary on Saturday, October 24, with 20% off everything storewide, including pet food, from 10 AM to 3 PM. After 28 years in business, that's a milestone worth celebrating, and plenty of Fond du Lac's four-legged friends and their humans stopped in to join the fun.

What makes Animal Outfitters special is that it's not a big box store. For 28 years, owner Cathy and her "Golden Staff" have built a shop that specializes in unique items for pets and the people who love them, high-end foods and treats, fun toys, and all the goodies your pets could want. Customers know the staff by name, the staff knows your pet by name, and if you've ever stopped in, you've probably been greeted by their beautiful golden retrievers. That kind of personal touch is exactly why this place has stuck around for nearly three decades.

The anniversary celebration was a perfect example of what makes this shop a Fond du Lac favorite. Great deals, happy pups, and a whole lot of tail wagging. It's the kind of local business that reminds you why shopping local matters, the money stays here, the service is real, and the people actually care about your pets.

If you missed the party, don't worry. Animal Outfitters is open weekdays from 10 AM to 6 PM and Saturdays from 10 AM to 3 PM at 661 S. Military Road. Stop in, say hi to the Golden Staff, and grab something special for your best friend. And of course, Go Brewers Go!

After following the remodel of the old Windjammer East banquet hall, I finally got the chance to check out The Approach at Ledgeview Lanes, and the finished space is impressive. With golf simulators plus games like soccer, football, hockey, basketball, darts and more, Tyler Luedtke and his team have created a place where just about anyone can have a great time.
