About Us

Welcome to Heaven Sent Healthy Pet. If you are looking for just another run-of-the-mill Pet Supply Store in Wilmington, NC and surrounding areas  you might be in the wrong place. But if you are looking for a revolution in how you feed, heal, and raise a healthy dog, you have found your new home.

My name is Vicky Glisson, founder of Heaven Sent Healthy Pet.   Long before I ever unlocked the front doors of our physical storefront, I was—and still am—in the trenches of canine feeding & health every single day. I don’t just read about dog nutrition on the internet; I live it. I feed 20+ Breeding Cane Corso’s raw, everyday. If you know anything about large breeds, you know they eat a ton of food, and their bodies require peak nutritional support to maintain their joints, muscle mass, and overall vitality. Feeding a pack of that size forces you to know for certain what you’re feeding your dogs has to work, for both you and them.  With that many dogs, it must be affordable and above all the healthiest food on the market. I had to learn the truth about what modern dog food company marketing has led us to believe about what our pets should eat for ‘ a healthy and balanced meal’.  The dog food corporations have all the money, make the rules and sponsor what our veterinarians are learning in college.

Years ago, I went on my own health journey with my family.  We were constantly sick and I was tired of being sick along with my children, all the time.  In my own journey towards better health, I researched and found there was a better way for my dogs as well.  Just like human doctors and our ‘food industry’, I soon realized that the commercial kibble industry and conventional veterinarians were failing our dogs.  That realization sent me down the rabbit hole of herbal health, raw feeding, and natural holistic remedies for dogs. I didn’t just want to feed my dogs; I wanted them to thrive.  They had to be the healthiest possible so they could produce the healthiest puppies possible.

I  soon realized there are so many pets suffering from chronic allergies, itchy skin, dull coats, and lethargy—all accepted as “normal” by the mainstream pet world. It isn’t normal. It’s a direct result of highly processed, biologically inappropriate kibble diets, over vaccination and toxic heartworm meds that are the normal schedule for most pets. I became a Pet Wellness Advocate because I couldn’t keep this information to myself. I have spent years studying the impact of a raw diet, concentrating my experience with 100’s if not 1,000’s of dogs and puppies, and the incredible healing power of organic herbs. When I decided to open a physical Pet Supply Store in Wilmington NC, my goal was simple: to create the space that not only has the answers to many health issues dogs face, but also make it a place that is welcoming for beginners and where people can come for answers without being intimidated. I wanted to build a haven where pet parents could walk in, ask hard questions, and get real, transparent answers—not a sales pitch for the most expensive bag of burnt brown cereal on the shelf.

Building out this storefront was and still is a labor of love. From signing the commercial lease to setting up our meat freezers, sourcing the best ingredients and the absolute best products that actually do the job, healing your pets chronic health challenges. Every decision was made with every pet’s health and longevity in mind. When you walk into our Pet Supply Store in Wilmington NC, you won’t see aisles of artificial colors or chemical preservatives or even 10,000 choices that overwhelm. You will see species-appropriate raw blends, herbal supplements that I have used for over 15 years with my own dogs, Holistic veterinarian created products that work magnificently, and remedies designed to work with your dog’s body, not against it. We have a Mobile Holistic Veterinarian that utilizes space in the store for her out of town clients and we refer our customers to her for their own pets needs.

We are not just a retail space; we are an educational hub. I know how overwhelming it can be to transition a dog from kibble to raw food. You worry about doing it right, managing the cost, and if it will really help. That is exactly why we are here.
