After Bo hurt yet ANOTHER toenail, I decided to stop by Three Dog Bakery on Ventura in Sherman Oaks to pick him up a little treat while I was out shopping today. This bakery was adorable! Not only did they have a delicious-looking selection of homemade treats, but they also offered cute toys and a accessories from local vendors. I caved and bought Bo a new toy... a cute rope octopus named Elton by Jax and Bones, which donates a portion of the profit to The Rescue Train. To add to the excitement, they gave me a free sample of their homemade kibble as well.
According to their website, the company was founded on 1989 by two guys and their three dogs. Beginning as the world's original bakery for dogs, Three Dog Bakery has become one of the nation's leading producers of all-natural foods and treats for dogs.
It was a very successful trip and I will definitely go back the next time I am in the mood to spoil Bo!
While there are a bunch of fun ways to show your pooch that you love him this Valentine's day, there is one event in particular that you absolutely can't miss! The fifth annual Bulldog Beauty Contest is a HUGE event where hundreds of bulldogs come to compete for titles like "Most Beautiful," "Best Smile," "Best Booty," "Best Legs," and more! While only pugs, bulldogs, and French bulldogs are allowed to compete, all pups are invited to attend and enjoy for free. There will be vendors, adoptions, prizes, and fun... not to mention the biggest seller for me: a bulldog kissing booth! Who wouldn't want a slobbery, stinky, love-filled kiss from a handsome face on Valentine's Day? :)
Entry fees and donations will help support Haute Dogs. Go check it out and Happy Valentine's Day to you and your pups! xoxo
Good news for the downtown LA crowd today! The soon-to-be-opened Los Angeles Brewing Company on Broadway will feature a "dog check" where patrons will be able to drop off their pups in a gated yard area for puppy playtime before tasting one of the LA Brewing Company's 100 beers on tap. The owner, Ralph Verdugo, loves dogs and good beer... man's two best friends. I will definitely be checking this out when it opens next month!
