Vacation Preparation

DSC05470 I have been excited about the opening of our St Paul location for quite a while. It's been a ton of fun and hard work getting everything planned and prepared for the opening. While the focus is on opening the new spa I hope that it will continue to be business as usual over in St Louis Park. Stop by Paws on Grand to get the first look at the new Bubbly Paws!

As much work as opening a new store is, Franklin and I are also getting ready for a vacation. We love to visit extended family in Michigan and relax by the lake. There are a few things we can't live without in the hot summer months and in particular when we are spending most of the day outdoors or in the water.

We love the Flea the Scene spray that is a combination of sunscreen and insect repellent. Though Frank is always kept on flea and tick preventative it keeps the worst offenders off and prevents itchy bites. Swimming is a great low impact exercise for older dogs and Frank loves to fetch so we must have a floating Orbee ball from Planet Dog. Stunt Puppy's Dry Collar is great for lakeside fun as it never gets smelly or holds water and wipes dry in an instant.  After all that fun nothing says Northwoods like an antler chew. These are great for vigorous chewers as they are difficult to break or split and gentle on dogs with sensitive stomachs.

While we will miss all our Bubbly friends, Franklin and I are excited for a little R&R before the excitement of the opening of Bubbly Paws St Paul Dog Spa!
