They soon moved over to the pet industry producing some of the toughest leashes on the planet.

Dog Songs…

Dogs play a huge role in our lives.  We worship the ground they walk on and we honor them in our everyday lives and rituals.  One of the most overwhelming ways we show our gratitude for our best friend is through songs.

Over the next few days I will post a new song to share with you.  I would appreciate you adding your own in the comment section
below.  The only requirement; the song must discuss a dog in it somewhere.

Today’s song is QUICHE LORRAINE by The B-52’s

Dogs Name: “Indy”

City: Denver, CO

Breed: Potcake

Likes: playing!

Favorite Toy: Stuffed Lamb

Favorite Treat: chewy rawhides

Favorite Walk: where ever we go!

Best Trick: Camp Counselor “Qyain” says it’s good that my mom found Michele at Denver Dog Works because she can help me figure out the world and not feel so scared. I don’t like it when people walk up behind or suddenly go in front of me too closely – I have nipped and bitten people on their ankles. Michele and Kyle are working to help me gain confidence.

Arrival Story: I first came to Denver Dog Works to learn how to handle anxious situations, boundaries, and to utilize obedience, manners, loose leash walking to be confident.

Bio: I am 1 years old and my mom traveled to the Turks and Caicos Islands to rescue me. You see I’m not a purebred or a pedigree. I’m fun-loving mutt. You can learn more about my breed by clicking on the breed tag above.
