PetSmart itself did own majority shares, initially, though they fully operated as separate entities. PetSmart sold off all of its own stake in Chewy a few years ago though. BC Partners also owns CenturyLink but no one would say PetSmart owns them. This is one of those things that makes my eye twitch because I have to listen to it EVERY day from customers who are certain they know more than the lowly swordless female (who they're usually certain is also lying to them about being the one who runs the place because again, swordless female in white male America). I can't tell you how many times I get "oh sweetie you must be new..." I've started responding that I'm running on year 16 with the company so they can make that call themselves....
