It's also been a crystal shop, and a t-shirt shop.)

How on earth does one make a high-end pet store? In the middle of a shopping district that is connected to theme parks? At DtD Orlando it might be feasible.. but getting pets in/out of DtD anaheim seems ridiculous. Does snookums ride the tram to get there? Maybe the idea is no pets being sold or visiting the store - but what pet store or boutique has no live animals at all? Even the most ridiculous high end diamond studded collar places have snookums come in for a fitting.

(Like how DtD Orlando is opening a Little Miss Matched).

They also had some merchandise specifically featuring Disney dogs or cats. When I saw that, I also found myself wishing we had something similar on this coast.
