Just note that many of these products are “Made in Canada”, not “Product of Canada”, so ingredients likely still come from outside of the country.
Still better than the alternative retailers and brands.
Is also an excellent pet supplier that is focused on Made in Canada.
Very nice! They seem to only have stores in Western Canada, but they do offer shipping 😀
EDIT: I’m realizing that PetValu seems to only have stores (a LOT of them) in Ontario only. So I guess these pet stores all have their own territories? Unless they are American, then they just go anywhere. 🤔
We have a ton of Pet Valu stores in Edmonton
I wonder why their store location map won’t show anything outside of Ontario when I look 🤔
Lots in Nova Scotia as well.
Speaking of pet food, we’re in the process of switching our dog to Inukshuk pet food. It’s 100% made and packaged in Canada and seems really good quality. No recalls in 20 years of production. So far our pup loves it, and its much cheaper than the Purina pro plan we were feeding her.
I recently switched away from ProPlan aswell. As a first time dog owner, I didn’t realize how low quality garbage it is until I had something to compare it to.
We are now feeding him Oven-Baked Tradition out of Québec.
Yeah, this is the first dog my wife and I have had since either of us were kids. It’s been a learning process.
Rens Pets is also Canadian
Nice find! Looks like we have one “close enough” 😀
Rens is part of groupe legault which also owns mondou and produces pet food in quebec
The more I get into Buy Canadian, the more appreciative I am of Quebec. Some of my favourite Canadian brands come from Quebec, and they have a very European sense for urban design needs (puts people, and not vehicles, first). 😍
I’d still recommend shopping with other smaller local companies. I’ve found the exact same canadian products, 25-30% cheaper at locally owned Canadian businesses instead of petvalu. They are EXPENSIVE for almost no reason and refuse to price match.

I wish I had the option!
Within just a few KM, we have two Petsmarts, and at least 3 petvalus. There was an independent pet store just down the street, but they closed down a few years back.
I may have to look again, since we just got used to having stuff brought in from Amazon or Walmart 😵
We live rurally. Our only pet store is actually petvalu and it’s a half hour by car. Sometimes you get what you get.
I’m still mostly shopping at my locally owned store but I’ve always like pet valu.
As a shout out, I recently decided to try First Mate wet cat food as it’s one of the few true Product of Canada cat foods that I could find.
Yup, switched to them a couple of years ago actually.
