This past Saturday, we celebrated our Share the Love event at Döghaus. We wanted to show you how grateful we are for having you in our family. And we had a blast! We only wish we could have thanked every single one of you, from those who came to share the love, those who dropped us a message, and everyone who makes our community so special every single day…
So we thought we’d do just that!
Our team got together and talked about what we appreciate most about our large family. And although we couldn’t fit it all into one post, we thought we’d share some of the top reasons why you mean so much to us.
1. We love seeing our furry pals
Never a day goes by that we don’t consider ourselves the luckiest people in the world because we get to meet, greet, play, cuddle, and give treats to our furry friends.
Whether they’re visiting while out on the town or making an unexpected detour halfway through a walk, it always brightens our day to be able to say hello and exchange a paw shake or a meow for a treat.
2. We love being a part of your dog’s and cat’s life
As part of a big family, we have the absolute joy of seeing your dogs and cats grow up: your pup’s first birthday celebration, refitting your dog’s harness because they’ve grown too big for their last one, talking dietary changes in your cat’s ever-changing culinary palate…
We love that we can share in the joys, the pains, and all the zoomies as we watch our family grow.
3. We love the community we’ve built together
We’re forever being reminded that our family extends beyond the claw-marked countertops, the nose-smudged windows, and the busy notice board of the store.
We’re a community of like-minded neighbours who won’t stop at spoiling our cats and dogs rotten. Together, we’ve built a space to share ideas, offer feedback, give encouragement, and lend a helping hand where needed. Whether it’s to shine a light on a local rescue, or receive assistance in times of need (#GreatDoghausFlood2018, anyone?), we’ve always got each other’s back.
4. We love how much you care (Fergus & Wilbur love it, too)
Because this wouldn’t have been complete without Fergus or Wilbur having something to say: the cookies, cuddles, and love that all of you give them is more than we could have ever asked for.
We know we have the best of friends when you treat our loved ones with the same love and respect as you treat your own. And when Fergus and Wilbur can’t get enough of you and wiggle their bums as soon as they see you walking through the door, it warms our hearts to no end.
5. And most of all… we love you!
We wouldn’t be where we are today without you. From your smiling faces, cat lady jokes, and stories of what your dogs have gotten up to, to your knowledge, compassion, engagement, and never-ending support, we’re so grateful for how much you’ve enriched our lives.
From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for being part of our family.
Happy Valentine’s Day!
Love,
The Döghaus Team
