Dapper Dog

Introducing our newest Tee, the Dapper Dog. Everyone loves a well dressed puppy, and ours is very sharply dressed with his hat and bow tie. Pick one up in the store and help make a difference for homeless dogs. These tees wont be available long as they are in a very limited print run of under 50.

Dogs in Art

Today I visited the Getty Museum in Los Angeles and had a very good time checking out all of the exhibits. I especially enjoyed the Rembrandt display showing a lot of the work done by both Rembrandt and his pupils.

I was pleasantly suprised when I started to notice dogs in a few of the paintings I saw. It's nice to know that people have enjoyed the companionship of man's best friend for hundreds of years. I though it would be cool to share a few of the paintings here so all can see.

Puppy Vs. Robot

While browsing the net I came across this video on youtube with almost 4 and a half million views. Its very funny and definitely worth a watch.

A Time For Thanks

Happy Holidays to one and all. Now is the time of year that we should all give thanks for those we love and what we have. During a recent trip to visit some family I got to spend a little time at one of the local animal shelters and wanted to share some pictures of the adorable dogs I got to meet.

Looking at these pictures reminds me of why I started this company and why I am so passionate about building a brand that hopefully someday will be synonymous with helping homeless dogs find loving homes.

LA Auto Show Visit

I like to go to the LA Auto Show every year and get an up close look at the new cars that will be coming out in the near future. This year the impact the economic downturn has had on the auto industry was very apparent. Right when I walked in I was greeted by a large open space where the Ferrari booth is normally set up. This set the tone for the show as Lamborghini, Bugatti, and Maserati were also missing from this year's show.

A newcomer for this year's show was Fisker Automotive showing off their impressive hybrids. Both cars were very well designed with slight references to Maserati design cues.

The biggest debut at the show was Mercedes new SLS Gullwing that has been rumored for quite some time. This car easily had the biggest crowd at the show with everyone trying to catch a glimse of the first car designed and built from the ground up by Mercedes performance division AMG.

The LFA, Lexus' first supercar which has a rumored price tag upwards of $400,000 had suprisingly few people checking it out.

Audi had a nice looking electric car on display. Called the E-Tron this vehicle would surely be an attention getter on the streets with its wire wheels and very chrome accents.

All in all the show felt a little less exciting this year. I really hope the economy picks back up and we get the joy of seeing the luxury brands like Ferrai who decided not to come out to LA this year.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING

Happy Thanksgiving from Shilo and myself. We wish all a safe fun day enjoying lots of food and family time. And don't forget to get outside and walk your doggy.

An Afternoon At The Dog Park

I like to take Shilo to the dog park as often as possible since she loves to run so much. I used to have to drive close to a half hour to get to the nearest dog park but one just recently opened up much closer to our house so I have a feeling I will get to take her much more often.

When there is other dogs at the park Shilo loves to make new friends. She loves to chase other dogs running around and I don't think I have ever seen her run out of energy.

After the dog that Shilo was playing with left she just sat around hoping another dog showed up for her to play with. Nobody else showed up so after two hours of playing and running around we went home. I think the next time we go I will have to brings some toys for her to play with just in case no other dogs show up.
