Speck’s Pet Supplies has opened its seventh store which is its first to serve the Zionsville and west Carmel communities. This locally and family owned company has six other locations in the greater metropolitan area including Anderson, Brownsburg, Greenwood and Geist. Another store will open in Fishers in April.

“Our newest pet nutrition center has already been enjoying a welcome response from the Carmel and Zionsville communities,” Mike Floyd, the store’s manager, said.

Speck’s has been serving the Indianapolis area for more than 20 years. The name of the store came from the founder’s champion hunting dog named Speck.

The store specializes in dog and cat nutrition and carries a wide selection of foods, treats, baked goods and supplies to meet a variety of pet needs. Speck’s has many foods that address special needs such as weight, allergy, breed specific and age related issues. It also stocks an extensive selection of holistic and organic brands.

Mary Ann Dalton, Speck’s marketing and special projects manager, explained that being customer centric is what makes the store different from their competition.

“We carry a wide variety of products that our competition doesn’t carry or keep in stock. If a customer has a special need or order request, we can take care of them and order in the product that they are looking for.” Dalton said.

“Our food companies come to our locations and extensively train our associates on the foods and treats that we carry. When a customer comes in and has specific questions, our associates can answer those questions and make recommendations based on the customer’s needs,” Dalton said.

Most of Speck’s locations assist local rescue groups and humane societies by housing cats and dogs that are up for adoption in their stores. They also host groups for various adoption days. For more information on adoption dates and times, visit: www.speckspets.com.
