The Sanders Team
Sanders Fodder was established by the Sanders family in 1979.
46 years later, the business was sold by Matthew and Jane Sanders to AIRR (Australian Independent Rural Retailers) and continues with local and long term team members to provide a reliable source of product, service and advice for all animal needs.
The business has evolved with the times to include safer handling practices and innovations in technology and processes to build an ‘old fashioned’ business model into a vibrant and productive business which services the needs of the Mid- North, Riverland, and Northern Adelaide metropolitan areas of South Australia. We have the advantage of spacious, easily accessible parking away from the main road and busy shopping precinct.
Having been associated with the AIRR since 2009, this move gave the store more buying power and access to better products in range and quality. This proves to be an important asset when vying for market share increasingly taken by department store and large chain outlets. Hence our ‘Tuckers Pet & Produce’ branding and quarterly catalogues.
Our team are locals and involved in the local community through involvement with clubs and volunteer organisations. We also support many local animal groups and shows through sponsorship each year.
The stone building in which Sanders Fodder is located, was built in the 1870’s with quite an interesting history. Read More about our History

🚨 Parvovirus Precaution Notice 🚨
We are currently seeing an increased number of parvovirus (parvo) cases in our community. This includes not only puppies, but also older unvaccinated dogs.
If your pet is showing any of the following symptoms:
• Vomiting
• Diarrhoea (especially bloody)
• Lethargy or weakness
• Loss of appetite
• Fever
It is very important that you list all symptoms that your dog is experiencing when calling for an appointment so we can best direct the situation.
👉 Please remain in your car upon arrival and call the clinic to let us know you’re here.
Phone number: 7231 3000
This is a precaution to help protect other patients. Parvovirus is highly contagious and can easily spread through contaminated surfaces.
We kindly ask for your understanding — please don’t be offended if you are asked to wait outside. This is clinic policy to prevent contamination of our waiting room and consult rooms, and to keep all pets as safe as possible.
Thank you for helping us protect our patients 💙 ... See MoreSee Less

🐣🍫 Easter Treats Can Be Toxic for Pets – Keep Chocolate Out of Reach! 🍫🐾
With Easter celebrations in full swing, it’s important to remember: while chocolate is a delicious treat for us, it can be dangerous—even life-threatening—for our pets.
🚨 Why is chocolate toxic?
Chocolate contains theobromine and caffeine, which pets (especially dogs) can’t process effectively. Even small amounts can lead to serious illness.
⚠️ Signs of chocolate poisoning include:
• Vomiting or diarrhoea
• Restlessness or hyperactivity
• Rapid breathing or heart rate
• Tremors or seizures
✅ How to keep your pets safe:
• Store chocolate well out of reach
• Remind children not to share treats with pets
• Keep Easter egg hunts pet-free
📞 Worried your pet has eaten chocolate?
Contact us on 7231 3000 immediately—early treatment is critical.
Let’s make Easter safe and happy for every member of the family—especially our furry ones! 🐶🐱💛 ... See MoreSee Less
