We wanted a pet food based on sound scientific principles and truth, not marketing hype. -Dick Van Patten Pet
I remember how my mom would take me on the subway from Queens to Broadway. We'd go to the offices of casting agents. Many doors were slammed in our faces. I was just a boy, but I remember that well. -Dick Van Patten Mom
If I was good each week, my father would take me to a different pet store each Saturday. I had a snake, horny toads, turtles, lizards, rabbits, guinea pigs... I kept my alligator in the bathtub until it got too big. -Dick Van Patten Pet
