Who Doesn't Love A Dog Parade?



Last Friday was the Northeast Dog Parade. Roxiedoggie was invited to have a booth in the vendors area at the end, and it was a blast! It seemed like there were hundreds of dogs there of every type and kind. I met the wonderful ladies from Sidewalk Dog, and Ken from Stuntpuppy. Roxiedoggie bowls were well received, and I got a lot of great feedback from dog owners. There were samples of Sojos food, and a new dog beer that I didn't catch the name of (blart!), but I think they carry it at Boneadventure.
I also premiered new handmade leashes made from organic cotton. The fabrics are a pink faux bois, and a teal print featuring woodland creatures like squirrels, birds, and foxes.

I am also looking into laser cut leather and felt for really beautiful modern collars inspired by crochet. I'll be posting the organic cotton leashes this week for sale on Etsy, and on Roxiedoggie.com. Thanks to everybody who came out to the parade, I really loved meeting all of you.
