|{{notability|companies|date=July 2009}}{{orphan|date=August 2010}}{{advert|date=August 2010}} }} Natural Pawz is a Houston, TX based retail company that sells natural and holistic pet foods, as well as accessories for both dogs and cats. Several locations also offer complete grooming packages. The two owners, Biff Picone and Nadine Joli-Coeur started the company after their first dog, Callie, a chocolate lab, started to show signs of various allergies, which was remedied by switching the food she was eating. Over the years, another chocolate lab rescue named Lucky and a cocker-spaniel rescue named Joey would join the Picone family. On September 19, 2018, Natural Pawz was acquired by Independent Pet Partners Holdings LLC (IPPH).[1] IPPH, headed by Jeff David, owns and operates independent pet stores that are focused on wholesome, natural and holistic pet food and supplies, such as Kriser’s Natural Pet. [2] IPPH has been steadily adding pet stores to its chain. [3] In March 2018, the company acquired 27 stores in Maine, Massachusetts and New Hampshire by adding two pet store chains to its portfolio — Especially for Pets and Pet Life. The company’s current acquisition will see its national store footprint increase to 108 stores and strengthen its presence in Austin and Houston, Texas. Locations
