A ribbon cutting by the Early and Brownwood Chambers of Commerce was held Wednesday morning, September 21, at 9:00 am to officially welcome Petco to this area.

Petco opened its second Neighborhood Farm & Pet Supply location at 201 Early Boulevard in Early.  To commemorate this milestone and introduce the community to the new Petco pet care center’s unique offerings, they invite families, pet parents and pets to join the grand opening and Petco FamilyFest.

During FamilyFest on Saturday, there will be a pet portrait studio, trivia, lawn games, food trucks, pet adoptions, dog training demonstrations, prize wheel and more.  Also scheduled Saturday is a $25,000 Petco Love check presentation to Corinne T. Smith Animal Shelter of Brown County.
