Double Dog Dating - Alaska, Molly Brown, Casper & Bullet
Posted by tamara under: Doggie Profiles.
Last night around 7PM I went to go do my rounds checking on everyone. I was very quiet so I wouldn’t disturb everyone and get them barking. In the yard was Alaska, Molly Brown, Casper and Bullet all laying in a circle facing one another and very close like they were hanging having a conversation. I ran to go get my video camera but by the time I got back they were up and barking. Sometimes its hard to get the best moments, however I wanted to at least get a video of the four of them. Molly Brown and Bullet definitely have a connection. It was love at first site!

Petsmart - My Personal Thoughts & Wellness Dog Food
Posted by tamara under: Woof Street Journal.
I have nothing against commercialism to a point and everyone is entitled to be successful in their business. Still I feel that we lose that small town charm when we go overboard. We often forget that their were hardworking businesses that helped build Danville in the first place. Maybe its my romantic ways that drive me to want to support the local community so that we all can flourish.
My issue today is with Petsmart. Sure its cool to be able to take your dog to a public venue. Petsmart carries just about everything for a variety of pets. With the addition of dog grooming it truly has become a one-stop shop.
When Petsmart opened its doors last year (I forget the actual date) I went with a handful of flyer’s ready to post them on a community board or see if there was some way they could support a local dog boarding business. I learned from the manager (and certainly not a friendly way) thats Petsmart doesn’t refer any type of businesses nor provide any community resources. I admit I was a bit taking back by this. The very least they could do is offer a community bulletin board.
