Dogtoberfest
Dogtoberfest Austin has been a pinnacle of pet-themed events over the last decade. 2017 marks the 10 year anniversary for this fun event. Not only does this even bring out hundreds of dogs and their people every year, but it benefits a variety of local rescue organizations. We had a great time meeting so many passionate dog lovers and getting to know several new small business friends at the variety of booths lining the walkway at the Domain.

We ate some delicious food, enjoyed watching Katharine McPhee blow us away at the PBS Soundstage and laughed for hours at The Second City (unfortunately, no celebrities showed up, but wow! the talent at this comedy club was great). As always,

Turbo-mode: ON
You know that feeling when you accidentally drink 4 red bulls instead of coffee in the morning? Well, I think this pup can relate!

Peace, Love & Pit Bulls
Peace, love & pit bulls really is a fabulous combination! Yesterday, we loaded up Panda Bear and headed out to meet up with our friends at Love-A-Bull to celebrate Pit Bull Awareness Month. This is an organization that I have known and worked with for years, they not only rescue dogs, but also advocate for dogs of all breeds to be treated equally.
Later this month, they will also be hosting their annual Pit Bull Pride Festival, so keep an eye out on our calendar for more fu
