Massachusetts Avenue is now home to a new pet store in Buffalo. Tango’s Pet Store opened last Friday at 246 Massachusetts
Avenue on the corner of Normal Avenue. Michelle Giomundo, the store’s owner, plans to expand the store in the
future and sell live animals, but for now it remains exclusively a pet supply
store.
Giomundo lives next door to the shop and saw a need for a neighborhood store
like this. As for walkability, the next pet store is a pretty good hike away from Giomundo’s neighborhood, and she felt this type of store would succeed in the area. According to her, the store has been popular in its first week.

I stopped in to Tango’s Pet Store — named after Giomundo’s blue and gold macaw — earlier this week to look around. I wasn’t exactly sure where the shop was located, but the wonderful murals outside (shown above) set it apart from the landscape of the neighborhood.
The shop offers affordable food and supplies for all types of pets, including
dogs, cats, fish, reptiles and exotic animals. It is open from 10AM to
6PM Monday through Saturday and 10AM to 5PM Sundays.
