    Shopping at BIG DOGS

    We rode the bike to Galveston today to the strand and went to Big Dogs..they had everything 40% off in the store!
    I bought Gracie a pink princess leash (says its not easy being a princess) and a pink princess ball. I also bought a little pink stuffed doghouse with big dog inside but its mine and sitting on my desk. Hubby and I bought matching Big Dog PJ pants..and I got a mug that says same as Gracie's leash. I just love that store. Wish we had one right here close by. They had the cutest dog dishes that said "Talk to the Paw" but only had purple, blue and black...you know I would have to have pink!
    Going to look up the website and see if they have pink in stock. Also got on their mailing list for the catalog.

    I LOVE that place! I shopped at an outlet store on my vacation. Got a Tshirt that says "I love my big dog and my big dog loves me" , another Tshirt that has cop dogs on the back that says" Bad dogs, bad dogs, what ya gonna do?" The dog they're arresting has a tatoo that says "bad to the bone". Also got a sweatshirt that says "All I want is everything. Is that a problem?" That store is so much fun. Oh, got a squeaker toy in the shape of a star that says Angel on it. It's on my bed.

    I did the right thing by setting you free
    But the pain is very deep.
    If only I could turn back time, forever, you I'd keep.
    I miss you


    I hear you whimper in your sleep
    I gently pet you and say, no bad dreams
    It will be alright, to my dog as dark as night.

    Fur as dark as the night.
    Join me on this flight.
    Paws of love that follow me.
    In my heart you'll forever be.
    [/SIZE]



    How I wish I could hold you near.
    Turn back time to make it so.
    Hug you close and never let go.

    WOW That store sounds AMAZING, it's probaly a good think we don't have one around here, I would spend way to much money there

    Gracie is so cute, I'm sure she loves her new collar and leash. Can we see some pictures of her sporting her new collar ?!

    I never knew what this store was. Once Alden and I took a vacation and it seemed like we saw several people wearing tshirts that had BIG DOGS on them. We couldn't figure out what it was.

    I'll have to check out the website!

    Its a great place...
    Gracie just got the leash...she already had a new collar that is pink with her name spelled out in rhinestones..and I paid a pretty penny for that one so it better last! lol

    I have several pairs of boxer shorts from there with the Big Dog emblem and a couple of t-shirts and 2 sleeveless blouses..

    We live about 40 min from Galveston which is the closest one to us. Its located on The Strand and we go there quite often in the summer.
    On another forum I am on they said they had a big parade this weekend..it was in Santa Barbara where the main store is based. And its a big deal there, they said.Every thing was on sale at remarkable prices...I thought 40% was pretty darn good for here! lol

    Big Dogs is such a great store.

    There used to be one in Victoria. There were only 2 in Canada, both here in BC. The other store I believe was in Kelowna wasn't doing well and had to close, and because of this the one in Victoria had to as well even though business was good there. I miss it so much!
