JACKSON, Wyo. — The building that once housed Bubba’s is now your pet’s paradise.

Teton Tails moved into the new space on 515 W. Broadway and has been open for business since Sept. 16.

The new shop is about 800 square feet bigger than its Pearl Ave. location and every inch of it has a purpose. Teton Tails now offers a self-serve dog wash and grooming station for large and small dogs, complete with all sorts of soaps and shampoos. A pastry case displays dog treats that look like they could live in Persephone. Cats have more food, toys, and other cat things to choose from. Toy dogs have their own section of the store.

“I feel like we have more room for our products to breathe,” said store owner Amy Vignaroli.

Amy hopes the new shop can grow into more than just a pet store. She wants it to one day be a social hub for pets and their parents. She imagines hosing doggie social gatherings in the back of the shop, and even utilizing the outdoor space in the back.

In a matter of time, maybe. For now, the team is settling into their new home and the doors are open to the public and pets every day from 10 a.m.–6 p.m.
