Barker and Meowsky

"Moose & Me"

Last October at Camp Dogwood, Casey and Gus had the distinct pleasure of meeting Moose, a black lab from Iowa, and his person, Trevor Meers. Moose and Trevor were working on a piece for Midwest Living Magazine that examines the joys of vacationing in the Chicago area with your best friend. “Moose & Me” appears in the June 2009 issue of Midwest Living (on newsstands now!). This fun article reminds us that traveling with our best furry pal is a great idea, features our favorite dog camp and mentions your favorite dog and cat-centric shopping locale and some happy Labrador campers.

Moose, Trevor and their adorable family stopped by barker & meowsky for a quick shopping excursion on their way downtown. One of Moose’s cute little girls picked him out a new Sea Turtles collar from our “Life’s a Beach” collection. Looking good Moose! In the Trip Guide you’ll read about barker & meowsky: “This leading pet boutique in Lincoln Park offers treats, leashes, beds and more without the precious attitude that accompanies many such stores. Say hi to Labs Gus and Casey, loyal Camp Dogwood attendees.”

Gus, Casey and fellow Camp Dogwood beach game Team2 players feel that Moose contributed greatly to their big win in the “Kibble Relay”. So, “hi” right back at you and thanks Moose and Trevor!
