first, every page should look identical.. I clicked on the pet wash and your advice about getting skunk offand found your logo in the middle of the page ..it should be on top just like your index page...never let your visitors wonder if they are still at the same site...
You need more content on your index page... perhaps you could indicate your product in some detail..
nowhere on your index page did I see you use the word "you".... only "we".... remember, your potential customer wants to know the benefit to him/her..... focus on "you" (the customer).... and tell them why they should buy from you.

I'm not crazy about that shade of green.. perhaps bit less yellow in it...

hope this helps... looks like a very good start... just a few minor adjustments... good luck!

I agree with MaryAnn about the green hue, it's a little too lime. Using something closer to an olive would be more complimentary to the maroon.

Each page changes in regard to your navigation; your nav buttons move from the top to the middle on some pages. When I clicked on your DogWalkBags, the product information displayed at the top and the nav buttons moved below. Keep it consistent from page to page.

Displaying your product info as right-justified is very hard to read. Consider moving your product images to the left and then left-justify your text, keeping with our left-to-right mode of reading.

Good luck with your online venture!

There are some rules about colors. Take a look as this site:

One of many that will help match and coordinate color scheemes...

I am happy with the design and flow of the site. My Interest is more advanced. I am hoping to get input on my code. Thanks for the opinions though!

Then don't ask for improvements if you don't want them - and we won't waste our time giving them. As you probably realise your code is unreadable without line breaks...

do reptile owners speak pretend latin?
There are no names on the products and some of them do need a little explanation.
I would break it down into catagories on each of the pages so for reptiles have food, toys, housing, etc

I know the code has issues. I didn't realize search engines utilized space between lines?

Sorry about the reptile page. It is set up to act as a template. Only the dog and cat divisions are fully in place.
