In this episode, Carly and Sherry unpack what’s really shifting in the pet industry as we move through 2025.

They cover:

• How Gen Z is changing the way we sell (and what they expect in return)
• The latest trends in pet nutrition—and what’s actually moving off shelves
• Why supplements aren’t a bonus anymore—they’re becoming a baseline
• The luxury pet space is booming—are you cashing in?
• The cat is out of the bag: feline ownership is up, and they’re finally getting their retail moment
• Plus, the treat and toy slowdown: what’s happening and how to pivot

It's a no-fluff convo about where we're headed, what’s working, and how pet pros can stay ahead. Whether you're on the sales floor or behind the scenes, this episode will give you the insights (and edge) to thrive in the new landscape.

Retail is changing. Let’s evolve with it.
