No food made today is right for all dogs.  I have heard many salespeople for dog foods make ridiculous claims as to how prefectly nutritious their traditional food products are for any dog, regardless of their dog's medical condition. All pet owners must first realize that foods are not created equal.

I opened Thomaston Feed (in the early days we were called ‘The Outpost Supply Co.) in Dec of 1992. At that time I was a High School Physics and Environmental Science teacher as well as training hunting dogs and breeding Labrador Retrievers (AKC Registered “Labmates Kennels”). I wanted to continue in a dog food and supply business, one that did not, or so I thought, would demand as much of my time. My wife and I were raising two young boys and the demands of my profession gave me very little time to spend with my young family.

I finally decided in 1997 to leave my teaching position to devote my energies to my business and my family.

To date I have continued to breed Labs and my love for them continues to grow.

I soon changed the name of my store to Thomaston Feed and Grain in respect of ( Thomaston Feed & Supply) the local feed store that was located in the same building  since the early 1900’s.

In 1997 we suffered a devastating fire knocking us down for about 5 months. During that tumultuous time I worked out of a 40’ storage trailer using flashlights for lighting and a ceramic heater to keep us warm through the cold winter nights.

Soon after that my wife and young son’s came down to help me rebuild my business. I also asked my nephew Brian and sister in law, Vicki to help out. Together with our 7 labs we are truly a family run business.

 The early days were trying times, $50 a day in sales, 9 years later we are honored and privileged to be the largest holistic dog and cat food business in the Northeast!

If you need any information on holistic dog or cat supplements or foods we are the store for you. To date, we carry 15 of the 22 best of the best dog foods as described in Whole Dog Journal (2005).

I (We) look forward in speaking to you to help you decide what food (or supplement) your best friend is in need of.

Thomaston Feed “Experience our Service” it’s our motto and philosophy in business.
