Please visit each site and see which products you like better. I want to sign up inder one but can't decide between the two. They each have an equal number of pros & cons. So I figured I'd take a poll. smileys/smiley2.gif

My first impression of Petlane was that they didn't have enough variety for me. Shure Petsseems to haveawide varietyof items, in many categories. So I picked Shure Pets in your poll. I didn't look at the biz opp infofor either but I would choose Shure Pets based on the fact they have more of a variety. The only thing I noticed with Shure Pets is they don't have pet categories, for dogs, cats, birds, etc.


I personally do most of my shopping at www.partypetshop.com (http://www.partypetshop.com). We are big pet lovers (right now we have a Basset Hound, Blue and Gold Macaw, cat and turtle).


Best wishes with your decision!

I also chose Shure Pets because I like their cat stuff better. Seeing as we own cats, that is what I would care about more.


Good luck with your decision!

I actually liked Petlane better. I thought they had a great variety of pet products (mainly cat and dog). Their website look appealed to me more and was easier to navigate. I liked how they seperated the cat and dog items, whereas Shure Pets had all the toys together and you had to sort through them yourself to see what was for a dog and what was for a cat.


It looks like the kit is more expensive with Petlane but you get a good variety. They also carry an exclusive line.

I voted as a "customer", since you seemed to look at the career info for both companies and you know your pros & cons. I think you were looking for a "consumer" viewpoint anyway, weren't you?


I picked Petlane because of the products-not just cat & dog stuff, and it was grouped by pet and categories. Their Web site also looked more professional and was very easy to navigate. They did a great job explaining parties & benefits & stuff to me.


Good luck deciding!

I voted for Shure Pets because they had a better selection. ButI have to admit, even though I'm a huge animal lover (2 dogs, 2 cats, and fish) I thought the prices on both were too high. Even with free products as a host, I can't see paying that much for things when I can run to PetSmart or even the grocery store for the same products. Sorry. smileys/smiley5.gif But I wish you the best of luck in your venture whichever you go with.

Well, I like Shure Pets business plan better myself and the host benefits are much better. So, I guess that sells me on them a little more than the other.

I like Petlane better. The reason being the cat food!


I just changed from Science Diet to a natural pet food because of the ingredients, and the cat food Petlane has looks like it has the good ingredients I'm looking for. I also like the auto ship option. I am moving to the land of driving 30 miles to a petstore,so I would definately go for the auto ship!
