Pierce's Paw Paradise

Giving back isn’t just for humans. Our four-legged friends can get involved, too! 🐾❤️

A little throwback to when Pierce’s Paw Paradise hosted a BringFido event to raise money for F.I.S.H. of Sanibel-Captiva!

Whether it’s hosting a fundraiser at the pet store, our family participating in beach cleanups, or me grabbing a microphone to emcee or auctioneer at events around the islands, giving back has become a big part of our lives.

I recently wrote an article for the Santiva Chronicle about something I truly believe: You matter more than you know. You don’t have to do something big to make a difference. You just have to show up!

Hope you’ll give it a read and feel inspired to get involved, too!

🐾 Meet Watson and Grey! Two little characters who made our day!

Watson is a 10-year-old rescue with a rough past but a VERY happy present! ❤️ He’s traveling across the country to visit Mimi and Pop, and this sweet boy is absolutely showered with love!

And then there’s Grey! 😂 He wasted no time making himself at home, picking out his own bacon chew and settling in for a snack. Shhh… Mimi and Pop weren’t looking! 🤫🤣

This wonderful family, visiting from Florida’s east coast and out west, brought so much sunshine and laughter into Paw Paradise today!

Seriously, how lucky are we to meet such fun people and their adorable pups?! 🐶💕

Meet Bailey, the Teddy Bear Pom! 🐾❤️

Bailey stopped by Paw Paradise and picked out an Etta Says Flavor Fusion treat, but apparently shopping wasn’t enough.

He also decided he’d like to become our newest employee and walked himself right behind the counter. 😂

Treat secured. Job application submitted. We’re still checking his references. 😊🐶

Thanks for visiting us, Bailey! Come back anytime… although next time we may have to put you to work! 😂

🚨 SQUISHY ALERT! 🚨

Okay, these may have absolutely NOTHING to do with your pets… but we couldn’t resist. 😂

We just got in a HUGE assortment of new squishies at Pierce’s Paw Paradise! Glittery sea creatures, rainbow squishies, glow-in-the-dark squishies, giant cheese, popsicles and all kinds of weird, wonderful, ridiculously satisfying things to squeeze.

For the kids. For the grandkids. For your desk. For stress relief. Or because adults need squishies too. 🙋‍♀️😂

Just one important reminder: these are HUMAN toys, not pet toys, so keep them away from those curious paws and teeth! 🐾

Stop in and find the one you can’t resist!

We may have a squishy situation over here. 😂😂

Giant cubes, sea creatures, tiny cuties and SO many more… we just got a TON of new squishies in at Pierce’s Paw Paradise!

And apparently they’re multiplying because new ones keep arriving every day. 😂

Stop in and see which squishy you absolutely cannot live without. Fair warning… choosing just one might be impossible!

Oh my goodness, OLIVER!! 😍🐾 I cannot with this little face! We are obsessed and he might be over his new toy.

This sweet little guy is just 9 weeks old and came in ready to SHOP! 😂 He checked out plenty of toys, but in the end, Lamb Chop stole his heart. ❤️🐑

We were so excited Oliver and his family stopped into Pierce’s Paw Paradise today. Seriously… how are we supposed to get any work done when customers are THIS cute?! 🥹

Enjoy your new Lamb Chop, Oliver! Come back and see us soon! 🐶💕
