Hound shop in Jersey City caters to particular pooches
Down the block from the dog run at Van Vorst Park, the sidewalk outside Hound About Town is often packed with pooches with particular palates. The walls of the small shop at 218 Montgomery St., are filled with natural, human-grade food supplies for those pet owners who pay just as much attention to the foods they feed their four-legged friends as those they eat themselves.
"It's kind of like the human organic movement, but for pets," said co-owner Donovan Cain who, with his wife Elizabeth, opened the store in April.
When Elizabeth rescued her mutt, Wiley, from North Shore Animal League America nine years ago, she began to research dog foods, and found that many commercial brands contain grains and human-food byproducts with poor nutritional value.
"The inspiration [for the store] was drawn from raising Wiley," she said. Health problems such as diabetes and cancer in pets, said Donovan, have been linked to poor diets.
The store stocks dog and cat food brands such as Fromm and The Honest Kitchen, and the owners are knowledgeable about animals' food-allergy symptoms and can make dietary recommendations accordingly.
In keeping with the popular movement of living and eating local, Donovan said the collars the store carries are made by small manufacturers in New England. "We're a small business and we try to support other small businesses," he said.
Once their small business gets established with its suppliers, the Cains will attempt to reach all corners of the Jersey City canine community with a second location at Hamilton Square they plan to open in late July.
"It's about servicing the neighborhoods," Donovan said. "It's a very walkable neighborhood and almost all our customers are pedestrians. Some of our customers' biggest complaints are having to carry a 30-pound bag of dog food on the PATH."
Elizabeth said some dogs can be very picky eaters, and despite the inconveniences, some owners just can't say no to their pets.
"One thing I really love about being here is that dogs will walk by and check the place out and put the brakes on," Elizabeth said. "They're our best sales people!
