It is a bad idea to start a pet store if your a hobbyist. It will burn you out and you wont enjoy it. I got myself in a similar situation 5 years ago. Im a bow bunting freak. I mean i seriouslly eat and sleep it. About 5 years ago i took over my cousins outfitting buisness in maine. Although i kept the staff i also was adament about being very much involved even though i live in virginia. So the plan was set. Come bear season i would spend the month there and run things hands on and when moose and deer season comes in ill be back and fourth. Pretty killer gig for a big hunting enthusiast right? Wrong. I was so busy working for my clients and taking care of buisness i only got to hunt myself 3 times. Every year since then i handle things from a far. We are now revamping to include waterfowl and other things so we are taking this season off. Moral of the story. Dont do your hobby as a full time job. It wont be as fun as ya thought it would be.
