PetSmart, Inc. (PETM) is the largest specialty
retailer of services and solutions for the lifetime needs of pets.
The first two PetSmart stores open in Phoenix, Arizona in 1984.
The company makes the decision not to sell dogs and cats, but to
find homes for shelter pets through in-store adoption centers. Now
the company operates more than 850 pet stores in the United States
and Canada, a growing number of PetsHotels and Doggie Day Camps,
and is a leading online provider of pet products and information.
PetSmart provides a broad range of competitively priced pet food
and supplies, and offers complete pet training, grooming and
adoption services; and provides a full line of equine products
through State Line Tack.
