The Woof is a Gold Member of Green America with a laser focus on sustainability in both food and policy. Our local store-to-door delivery service is a customer favorite, providing a convenient and affordable method for having foods (including frozen raw diets) and litter delivered right to your home or office for a very reasonable delivery fee ranging from $3 - $8.
Our delivery area covers a 10 - 15 mile radius from our current store location. The Big Bad Woof also partners with local rescue organizations such as the Humane Rescue Alliance and the Animal Rescue Corps to hold fundraising events, collect donations of pet supplies and co-run adoption clinics.
Our WoofClinic program gives free professional information directly to the community. Animal specialists in health, behavior, and training come to the store to present and answer people's questions about animal well care. This gives everyone the opportunity to be a better pet owner.
