[NAME],
Hello from DallasDogLife!
Father's Day is this Sunday, and we at DallasDogLife want to take this opportunity to recognize all the men out there who are fur-dads to the Metroplex's pooches. While DDL's readership is primarily female, I do see a lot of interaction and activism from the guys and we just want you to know that we appreciate you! (Incidentally, for you single dog dads, AskMen.com ran an article that lists dog parks as a great place to make a love connection. Just sayin'...)
On to this week's updates!
Featured Review - Avenue Barket
www.avenuebarket.com
A few months ago, when I first passed by the then-empty storefront next to Buffalo Exchange on Lower Greenville Avenue, I was thrilled to see a temporary sign announcing a new retail store that would carry "holistic, natural, and organic" pet supplies, especially in an area like the M Streets where dogs abound. On May 1, Avenue Barket opened its doors to the public and has been making themselves at home in this dog-loving community. With its large selection of dog foods and treats, along with the incredible affordability of their products, Avenue Barket is sure to have something for everyone who stops in for a visit.
