This month at Metropawlis
We hope you and your pets enjoyed your Independence Day weekend! Summer
is here, along with lots of new products, VIP deals and pet-friendly activities,
including a celebrity book signing and the opening of Milwaukee's newest
off-leash dog park! Read on...
There's always something new to find at Metropawlis! Stop by to
see some of the newest and coolest things for your pet:
New Treats from Three Amigos: Locally-owned Three Amigos Dog Bakery
has rolled out some great new items for Summer!! Treat your dog to some
delicious treats including "Poochie Pizza", "Bark-B-Q Piggys",
and Barkin' Banana Biscotti".
Loopies are Back! Last Summer's favorites, Water Loopies, are back!
Water Loopies are covered with bright durable neoprene, they're easy to catch
and grab, they float--no matter how much water they absorb--and they're machine
washable! And new this year are Rope Loopies. The rope is solid all the
way through--even if your little biter gets through all the plush, he or she
will be left with six loops of rope so thick, it is nearly impossible to break
apart.
Leather Studded Collars: These collars combine the best of both worlds
by utilizing a balance of heavy duty nickel plated brass studs and spikes.
Available in black and many other colors. These collars make a great addition to
your dog's collar wardrobe!
Petstages Dog and Cat Toys: Petstages offers developmental toys for
dogs that provide hours and hours of chewing pleasure for your dog! Durable
material designed to stand up to even the toughest chewers. And for the cats,
try the new Kitty Chase, which offers lots of fun sounds and motions for hours
of interactive play. The soft plush handle is easy to grasp and the three
fingers will give kitty triple the fun.
We
interrupt this month's newsletter for a special request. David Ray,
brother of Metropawlis co-founder Augie Ray, has been a huge help in creating Metropawlis--he
even invented the boutique's catchy name! David is now a Shorewest REALTOR
specializing in pet-friendly condos in Brewer's Hill, downtown, the Third Ward,
and nearby neighborhoods. If you are interested in buying or selling real
estate in Milwaukee, we'd ask that you call David at 414.961.8314 X110 or visit DavidKnowsDowntown.com.
Mark
your calendar for the Milwaukee celebrity event of the season: Meet local
canine celebrity, Stinky the Bulldog, on Saturday, July 16th
from 10 am to Noon. He and his owner, Jackie Valent, will be meeting fans
and signing books at Metropawlis Pet Boutique!
This children's book is a great story that focuses on Stinky's move to a new
neighborhood and his quest to make new friends, but he encounters some people
who don't want to be his friend. Kids will learn a valuable lesson about
friendship and not judging someone on the outside. This book is a great gift for
a child to add to their Summer reading list, and you can purchase the book and
get it signed by the author on July 16th at Metropawlis.
