Buddy Belts at Pet Valu? - Page 2 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

I went to Pet Valu today in Abingdon and was very disappointed to see that they are not going to carry the BB2. I was anxious to check it out. I guess they will be sold only in certain stores?

The picture attached looks different than the one I saw. I'll have to wait until I see one in person.

I googled it. It doesn't even give where it is being sold

It will be available to all current retailers in 2 - 3 months, unless plans change.

Interesting. You are going to have to give us a review of what you think. And also a comparison.

Personally, the only Buddy Belts I will buy are from Kristin. She has exceptional customer service, and I prefer to support her business. We have walked in rain and snow, and Katie's Buddy Belts are still beautiful and in fine shape, so I am not interested in synthetic leather.

I could see how non-leather buddy belts could be good for people who feel strongly about animals being eaten/used or for people who can't afford the leather BB. I'm sure it will have its market

I prefer the leather, but I understand why they might want to include other consumers.

I totally agree. Kristin gives great customer service. I recommend her every time I can for buddy belts. She did say it would be available to all retailers, which means she could sell them. This gives people other options and more business hopefully for her.
