Hello from DallasDogLife!
Well, it's finally here. Cool temperatures have made their way to DFW and it's becoming necessary to bundle up before taking your dogs on their morning walks. Chewy, my Pekingese and only long-haired dog, loves this time of year. He gets a renewed energy (and possibly inflated ego) from walking comfortably while Buster, Fudge, and I shiver. At least I'll be able to try out some of the latest canine fall fashions on the two short-haired pups.
The 2010 DallasDogLife Business Directory is coming along quite nicely! I anticipate that it will be ready on December 1 and I'm currently taking pre-orders. The price will be $10 per directory, which includes shipping, and a portion of that amount will go to a local rescue organization (to be determined). Please email me at info@dallasdoglife.com if you are interested in purchasing this directory and I'll make sure to send you a link to order when it's ready. For businesses that would like to order in bulk, please email me about discounted rates.
Featured Review: Protecting Max - Your Pet Sitting Partners
www.protectingmax.com
As much as we'd like to spend most of days at home with our pets, sometimes busy schedules, long work hours, and travel mean that our beloved pets are home alone for a majority of the day. Thank goodness for pet-sitters, who come to our homes to spend time with our pets, feed and walk them, and take care of house-sitting duties like taking out the trash, bringing in our mail and watering our plants. While there are many pet-sitting services available throughout the Metroplex, the Mid-Cities is lucky enough to have a company who is not only dedicated to providing you with quality pet care, but also helps other pet-sitting businesses to become better and more successful. Read the entire review here.
