RETURN POLICY | Animal Nutrition and Grooming Center

At Animal Nutrition Center, we want to make our return policy as convenient as possible for our customers. Our goal is to find the products that best suit the needs of you and your pet. We encourage you to ask questions and are happy to discuss any concerns you may have at the time of purchase.

Online Returns:

Orders can be cancelled within 1 hour of placing them. After the 1-hour cancellation window all cancelled orders are treated as returns and will incur return fees as outlined in this policy.

Returns are accepted within 30 days of purchase.

To be eligible for a return, your item must be unused and in the same condition that you received it. It must be in the original packaging with tags attached.

Open or used Dog or Cat Food is subject to our Picky Eater Guarantee*. Food items categorized as Dog or Cat Food include dry kibble, cans, wet pouches, freeze dried and dehydrated food, treats, and supplements.

Defective items will be replaced only if they do not operate properly due to a manufacturer defect. Items are not defective if the desired results were not achieved, as behavior and other results are not guaranteed. (i.e. bark collars, repellents, etc)

Animal Nutrition Center does not guarantee toys against destruction or chewing, and we do not give refunds for chewed or destroyed toys. Contact the manufacturer directly if you have questions regarding toy destruction guarantees.

To complete your return, we require a proof of purchase with your original order number. Email orders@animalnutritioncenter.net

Sale items are not refundable. “Buy one, get one free” offers require all items to be returned to get full credit.

Return Fees: In Store Returns are Free.

If you have any questions or concerns about our return policy, please contact our staff at (916)782-7300.

In-Store Returns:

Returns accepted within 30 days of purchase with a valid register receipt or Customer Loyalty Account purchase record.

Customer Loyalty Program Members have an extended period of 60 days to return purchases and do not need a physical receipt, if the purchase was made under the Loyalty Account number.

Refunds will be returned to the original payment method only. Cash refunds are not offered for credit or debit card purchases. Checks are subject to a 10-day waiting period after purchase before a refund can be given. We can refund cash on a purchase paid by check after the 10-day period.
