PetSmart is dedicated to developing the most complete nutrition and wellness solutions for your pet. That’s why we’ve created the Healthy Pet Advisory Council™, selected from some of the best and brightest veterinarians, researchers, and pet nutritionists.
The council is committed to providing nutritional education and guidance to the PetSmart team and to helping pet parents make informed choices for their pet’s individual needs.
