Spring has arrived in Minnesota, and at Paws Inn Pet Essentials in Waconia, we’re celebrating the season with a focus on wellness, cleanliness, and the little moments that make pet ownership so rewarding.
Whether you're a dog lover hitting the trails, a hamster parent refreshing a habitat, or someone who cherishes their very first pet photo—this one’s for you.
Pooper Scooper Week: Why Clean-Up Matters More Than Ever
Pet waste might be an unpleasant topic, but responsible cleanup protects our environment and our pets. Pet waste can carry bacteria and parasites that contaminate water supplies.

- Biodegradable poop bags like our new Messy Mutts line
- Hands-free scooping tools
- Natural, safe outdoor cleaning sprays
🌱 Messy Mutts Biodegradable Poop Bags
- Made from eco-friendly materials that break down naturally
- Durable, leak-proof, and sized to fit standard dispensers
- A simple way to reduce plastic waste on every walk
Spring Deal: Buy a large Wondercide spray, get 1/2 off a small bottle!
