🎁 Giant raffle baskets made possible by our amazing brands who donated so many goodies for a great cause!
🧡 Wonderful conversations, incredible deals, giveaways, and so many familiar and new faces!

To our brand partners who showed up, donated, offered amazing deals, and spent the day connecting with our guests — THANK YOU! To our team, who worked tirelessly the last few weeks to make everything run smoothly — we couldn’t do this without you. And to every single person who shopped small, donated, entered the raffle, adopted, or simply came out to celebrate with us… YOU are what makes Local Paws so special. 🥹

Six years in, and we’re more grateful than ever to be part of this community. ❤️

💚 Our guests have BIG hearts, and we're so grateful! 🐾

Thanks to your incredible generosity, we've had 15 raffle winners and raised over $3,000 so far for our four amazing nonprofit partners! 🎉 And guess what? The month isn't over yet! There's still time to make a difference for pets and people in our community.

Here are a few easy ways to join in on the giving:

🐾 Drop your change! Bring in your spare change and add it to our donation jars for our four nonprofits throughout October.

🦴 Donate supplies! Bring in new or lightly used pet food, toys, and supplies that we can pass along to our nonprofit partners at the end of the month.

🛍️ Shop our clearance section! You can snag a great deal while helping support our community, too. Purchase an item from our clearance section or anywhere in the store, and we'll add it to the donations for our nonprofit partners.

🎁 Share the love from your tote! Have items from your Customer Appreciation Event tote that your pet can't use? Bring them by Local Paws, and we'll happily donate them on your behalf!

Every little bit adds up, and we're so proud of what our community has already accomplished together. Thank you for showing up for these organizations and the pets and people they serve. ❤️

Brightside Animal Shelter
Jericho Road
Herding Dog Rescue of Central Oregon
Redmond Senior Center

Let's keep the generosity going through the end of October! 🐶🐱

💚 THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU! 💚

Our 6th Annual Customer Appreciation Event wouldn’t be what it is without the incredible community of people and businesses who show up for us year after year!

🐾 To all of our amazing brand partners — thank you to everyone who joined us in person and to those who couldn’t make it this year. Your continued support, generosity, and enthusiasm help make this event so special. We’re especially grateful to our brands for graciously allowing us to extend our sale to TWO FULL DAYS this year instead of just one day like years past! That extra day gave our guests even more time to shop the deals and celebrate with us. We couldn’t do it without you!

🩵 To our sponsored brands — THANK YOU for helping us spread the word and make those highly coveted Local Paws totes happen again this year! Your support helped us make this event even bigger and better, and we couldn’t do it without you.

🚗 To High Desert Vision Source — thank you for graciously allowing us to use your parking lot on Saturday! Having the extra space made such a difference in bringing this event to life.

🐶 To our amazing nonprofit partners — thank you for being there on Saturday and for the incredible work you do throughout the year. We’re so proud to partner with organizations that make a real difference for animals and people in our community. We’re better together!

And, of course, THANK YOU to our guests who came out, shopped local, supported our vendors and nonprofits, and celebrated six years of Local Paws with us. ❤️

It takes a village to pull off an event like this, and we’re so lucky to have such an incredible one right here in Central Oregon. From the bottom of our hearts, THANK YOU for being part of the Local Paws family! 🐾

❤️ Our team is the REAL reason Local Paws is so special. ❤️

After an incredible weekend, we’re feeling extra grateful for the amazing people who make Local Paws what it is. 🥹🐾

These guys and gals are some of the hardest-working people you’ll meet. They show up, work their tails off, stay professional through the busiest and craziest days, and genuinely care about the people and pets in our community. They’re knowledgeable, kind, eager to help, and always looking for ways to make someone’s day a little better.

This weekend was a BIG one, and watching our team come together, support one another, take care of our guests, and give it their all made us incredibly proud. We heard so many wonderful things from guests and vendors about our team, and we couldn’t agree more. ❤️

Local Paws has never just been about selling pet food. It’s about community, relationships, and the people who make you feel welcome the moment you walk through the door. And we’re lucky enough to have a team that lives that every single day.

To our team: THANK YOU. For your hard work, your heart, your patience, your hustle, and for caring so much. We see you, we appreciate you, and we couldn’t do this without you. 🧡

We’re so proud of the team we’ve built and so grateful to do this alongside you. Here’s to the people behind the paws! 🐾

🥹🐾 SIX YEARS OF LOCAL PAWS! 🐾🥹

Swipe back in time with us to where it all began… our trailer! ❤️

Six years ago, Mark and I opened Local Paws with a big dream, a whole lot of passion, and a tiny little trailer to call home. In October 2020 we opened Oregon's first dog food truck. We had no idea just how much this little adventure would grow or how many incredible people (and pets!) we’d meet along the way.

Fast forward six years, and here we are! 🥹 From those first days in the trailer to the community we’ve built today, we are beyond grateful for every single person who has supported us, shopped small, told a friend about us, brought their pets in to say hello, and made Local Paws part of their lives.

To our loyal guests who have been with us since the trailer days, THANK YOU for believing in us from the very beginning. And to everyone who has joined our Local Paws family along the way, we’re so happy you’re here! ❤️

Local Paws has always been about more than pet supplies. It’s about community, connection, and helping you give your pets the very best. And we wouldn’t be here without YOU.

Here’s to six years of wagging tails, happy purrs, amazing memories, and so much more to come!

Who remembers shopping with us in the trailer?! 🙋‍♀️🙋‍♂️ Tell us how long you’ve been part of the Local Paws family in the comments! 👇
