What's in a name? Well, our name — The Animal Store — comes from a wonderful poem written by Rachel Field:
The Animal Store — by Rachel Field
If I had a $100 to spend,Or maybe a little moreI'd hurry as fast as my legs would goStraight to the Animal Store.
I wouldn't say "How much for this or that?""What kind of dog is he?"I'd buy as many as rolled an eye,Or wagged a tail at me!
I'd take the hound with the drooping earsThat sits by himself alone;Cockers and Cairns and wobbly pupsTo be my very own.
I might buy a parrot all red and green.And the monkey I saw before.If I had a hundred dollars to spendOr maybe a little more.
