Businesses have recently embraced pet culture. With nearly 393 million pets nationwide, it’s obvious why. Rok Straps made stretchable leashes for dogs that like to pull, using the same materials as their stretch cargo straps. Louis Vuitton, Ralph Lauren, and Coach all make high-fashion designs for dogs. Stores also cater to pets by having special pet areas, local events, and even holidays.
Tractor Supply Co. host adoption events for local animal rescues and offers discount vaccinations and wellness clinics. Some fast-food restaurants even have a secret special menu for pets. Dairy Queen’s Pup Cup is a dish of vanilla soft-serve, topped with a dog treat. Americans greatly value their pets when in 2018 Americans spent $72 billion on their pets and were willing to give up eating out, vacations, and even saving for retirement.
