Woofstock and more!







This year on June 12 & 13, Toronto is hosting another Woofstock in the St. Lawrence Market area of Toronto! Woofstock is a really amazing event where the streets are closed and dogs are allowed, it's always a warm and wonderful weekend, and all the patios allow your dogs to join you at your table! I'll be setting up a booth there this time and I'm so excited! Check out the website at www.woofstock.ca for tons more information! It's the largest outdoor pet event in North America and it's free to get in! Last year we did the Pug March and worked the Pugalug booth to raise rescue awareness, and this year our booth with donate to some rescue organizations as we did at Pet Fun Fest and the All About Pets Show! I'll post some options up on the facebook fanpage and let the fans decide the winners this time around.















Some more great news for Peachy Keen Pets is that our products will also be found at PET POD, a great little pet boutique at King Street just west of Bathurst. A fabric ring will be left there, like all the stores carrying PKP, and you can do custom orders straight from the shop, try stuff on, and browse a great store.


We are also offering e-giftcards if you would like to give the gift of cute and quirky pet accessories! You can offer a card with a monetary amount, or specific items, like a collar and leash combo! A sample is below! Spring is puppy season, give the gift of fun and functional items for furry loved ones in your family and for your friends!


I can't stop using this picture of Hummus for everything PKP related! This face is the face of adorableness, and giftcards, thank you cards, and coupons so far... it is also a cure for the blues. Don't you feel better just looking at him?

Pugs for Earth Day

Okay I know I'm a day late to post something about Earth Day, but I came across the video from my friend Gord, I think it might be the greatest video I've ever seen. Check out this pug doing his part for the environment.

In other news, we have officially added another store that will be carrying Peachy Keen Pets at the start of May! Kingsway Pet Supplies is in Kingsway Village, close to the Royal York subway stop in Toronto. No pictures yet as the store is under construction, but we'll post some photos and info when they open!

Miso is a curious little creature, and he likes to stick his face in there while I try to take product shots when my wonderful photographer friend, Megan Battersby, isn't available. When she's around, he and Hummus are the stars of course!
You can see that Miso doesn't approve of my DIY methods!

A Whirlwind 2010!!

Peachy Keen Pets has been busy!

We had a great booth at the All About Pets Show over the Easter weekend and the turnout was incredible! Meeting so many great people and some really cool dogs, the weekend went by in a flash! We debuted some cool new fabrics, made our first doggie seatbelt, and showed off the NEW adjustable leashes! It was such a good time I decided to sign up for Woofstock so I can meet more of you in person, and take some pictures of your dogs in their PKP!

Below are pictures of some All About Pets customers, including our first BUNNY customer!
