Well, we’ve jumped on the bandwagon and joined twitter. So far, we’re enjoying the short spurts of conversation. Join us! We’ll be tweeting about shop news, life in general, and our crazy kitty whose antics never get old.

And shhh… don’t tell anyone, but we just might use twitter to ‘clear’ our shelves of some older/discontinued collars. Yes, you heard me, we will be giving away free collars to our twitter followers. So pay close attention, you don’t want to miss it!

This week our featured pet is Stella, a beautiful blond lady from down south. We saw photos of Stella when she was just a wee-one, and now she’s grown enough to fit in one of our Big Dog collars! They grow up too fast, I tell you… however, in Stella’s case, she’s just as cute now as ever.

Anything else special about your pet? She ate a full sized toad the other night in one bite… it was an interesting experience.

P&P Stylist Says…
We’ve got a thing for blonds. Especially those with eyes like Stella. We also love daddies that are not afraid to put their girls in pink! The preppy lady that she is, we think Stella would look darling in our Amelie Argyle Big Dog Collar. For days when she’s more devil than preppy little angel, the sassy pink stripes in our Diva Stripe Big Dog Collar might be more fitting. And because a girl can never have too many collars, the Pop Flowers Big Dog Collar would be a perfect addition to her collection. Too sweet.
