The
path towards holistic pet food and supplies was a
personal one for
Sunflower Pet Supply owner, Beth Iverson. Beth had
been around animals her whole life: she grew up with
horses, dogs, cats, rabbits, and chickens. A couple of
years ago she and her husband decided the time was right
to buy their very first dog. They chose an adorable 8
week old German shepherd puppy, and named him Connor.
Connor was a wonderful addition to the household, but
from day one, odd health problems plagued him. His coat
was dry, his digestion was poor, and he had a difficult
time gaining weight - even though he gobbled up all of
his food.
After
numerous veterinary tests revealing no obvious answers,
Beth finally decided to research her dog food as a
possible cause. What she found astounded her. She could
not believe such a “reputable” big-name brand could use
such poor quality ingredients, needless fillers (corn,
wheat, etc.), questionable preservatives, as well as
many other concerning ingredients.
After
furthering her research, she found an entirely new line
of premium quality foods that used superior ingredients,
safe protein sources and healthy grains, lots of fruits
and vegetables and only natural preservatives. She made
the switch…and the results were amazing! Connor’s skin
problems cleared up, his digestion improved, and his
overall happiness soared.
The
only problem remaining was the high prices she had to
pay and long drives she had to endure to find stores
that carried these premium brands. Most of these
products cannot be found at the large chain stores.
This is when Beth envisioned her own holistic pet
supply store.
She
opened
Sunflower Pet Supply
in November of 2007 with the goal of providing a
holistic approach to pet needs at a reasonable price.
Sunflower Pet Supply
offers a full range of premium pet food for dogs and
cats as well as unique products and accessories for
dogs, cats, and horses. Located in south Tempe at the

assisting their customers with selecting the best
products for their individual pets. “We believe that
our animal companions deserve the same opportunity to
have a happy and healthy life as we do, and that begins

says Beth.
