With the loss of my father, these past five weeks have been an incredible journey for me, and for my family. I have faced many challenges in my life, and have always been able to plan and strategize to overcome what was in the way of what I wanted to acheive. This time, only time will help me to move through the challenge of losing someone that I loved with my whole heart. So, the incredible journey continues and I am back to work and will be posting regularly.
My beloved four legged companion Mikey has been on his own incredible journey. He was recently about town searching for squirrels, and visited a few of Seattle’s iconic hot spots…
Along the way he stopped at one of his favorite spots, Trophy Cupcakes (1815 N. 45th St., Suite 209, Seattle, 206.632.7020, www.trophycupcakes.com), to order treats for his human friends. He personalized each cupcake by adding their dogs photographs…
A few other favorite finds…
From faux fur coats to army fatigues there is fabulous fashion to fit any of fido’s moods: Check out Scraps (900 Lenora Street, Suite 120, Seattle, 206.332.9663, www.scrapsonline.com) or visit www.scootersfriends.com for a peak at Mikey’s favorite trench for those intermittent Seattle showers (it’s reversible!).
Dine in style: Glen Ross is a modern furniture designer that recycles left over materials from his designs for his human clients to create a fabulous line of modern pet furniture and accessories.
You can find them at Urban Beast (217 Yale Avenue North, Seattle, 206.324.4400, www.urbanbeast-seattle.com).

Smile for the camera: Is your dog tired of the paparazzi shots, and are you looking for someone to capture their “good side?” For stunning pet photographs call Bev Sparks (206.723.8665 or visit www.dogphotography.com). These are our friends Andrew and Cody…
Check out the July issue of Seattle Magazine or NW Home and Garden for an insiders view of Mikey’s recent fashion fete, and visit king5.com and watch my “Pampered Pet” segment for even more resources for your furry friend.
Thanks again to my friends and family for your support and love, and thanks to everyone that continues to visit my blog and check in!
