Eye Candy of the Week: Preuss Pets

It’s been a banner year for Preuss Pets in Old Town and its owner Rick Preuss. In August, the World Pet Association honored him and the store for a lifetime of advancing the pet industry with the title of retailer of the year. Preuss himself was also honored with a lifetime achievement award. And last week, Top of the Town voters declared the shop as the best Eye Candy in town.

A former car dealership, the brightly painted pet store edifice includes a towering waterfall display and a rainforest facade painted on the outside wall, a mural from a local artist. 

Preuss looks back on 40 years of ‘magic’ between people and pets
