Eco-friendly pet supplies
We offer pet products made from recycled materials, organic ingredients, and locally sourced components. Our selection includes biodegradable poop bags, reclaimed-material toys, and sustainably harvested cat litter alternatives. Every product undergoes environmental impact assessment before being stocked.
Organic pet foods
Our food selection features USDA-certified organic options, grass-fed meats, and cage-free poultry without artificial preservatives. We specialize in raw food diets and grain-free formulas meeting AAFCO nutritional standards through third-party laboratory testing.
Raw diet options
We provide frozen raw meats, bones, and complete raw meals from trusted suppliers like Primal and Stella & Chewy's. Our staff offers guidance on balanced raw feeding protocols and safe handling practices for optimal pet health.

Over 60% of our inventory comes from Oregon-based manufacturers using regional ingredients. This reduces transportation emissions while supporting local businesses creating innovative pet products from Pacific Northwest resources.

We love Green Dog Pet Supply! We have been coming here for years and they are always knowledgeable about whatever we are struggling with for our dog. They do the research on all their products so that you can shop with confidence that you are only getting the best options for your pet. The bulk treats are amazing and for a smaller shop, the selection is always great.

This place has become our favorite pet store in PDX! Even though we live quite a distance from the store we happily drive here because it's the friendliest pet store in town. They offer toys that are not destined for the landfill, and high quality pet food and treats. A friend once told me that if I got a puppy, that this store would become my new Nordstrom, and she wasn't wrong. Do yourself a favor and check them out, and if you're like me, you'll find your pets store nirvana! The people who own/work here love dogs and you can feel it.

I called yesterday to place an order for curbside pickup. Amazing positive attitude and when I picked up today, there was a note attached with 4 $1bills and two complimentary treats bc she went back into our file and found that there was a small price difference. I would have never known that. They are truly so welcoming and helpful!

Green Dog is great. They are very friendly and helpful every time we visit! They have lots of healthy treat options for the pups and know their products well. We were able to pick up a cooling vest for our big fluffy dog in hopes of making her a little more comfortable on walks during these hotter months. They helped us figure out sizing and shared some info/reviews about the vest while we were in the store :
