Mud Bay

We adore animals, and we think that doing so makes us become better people. They will do anything for us, which is one of the primary reasons we participate in Anything for Pets. Anything for Pets represents our dedication to pet owners, our company culture, and who we are as animal lovers. As the industry pioneer in pet care, we base our choices on ways to strengthen the bond between pet parents and their animals.

Animals are more than just housemates. They are related. When we see our favorite dog's tail wagging, we all know the irreplaceable, unwavering affection we experience. We are here to keep our families together, so we are aware of the crippling terror that results when they don't return. Yes, modern technology may offer to aid in that endeavor. 

Petco is a leader in the health and wellness industry, committed to enhancing the quality of life for dogs, pet owners, and our own Petco partners.

When Elsa Wulff bought a little farm store in 1988, Mud Bay was born. Early on, Mud Bay sold a little of almost everything, from locally grown oysters, pop tarts, and folk art to hog feed, fertilizer, and hay. The store was housed in an 80-year-old building on Mud Bay Road, which runs west out of Olympia and spans the bottom end of Mud Bay, one of the southern arms of Puget Sound. The shop also suffered a loss. Lars, Elsa's son, joined Mud Bay as its third employee in 1989 after realizing that his mother couldn't afford for the company to fail.
