Caught in a Weak Moment at Deco

Dear Deco Fans:

Yes, I admit. I was caught in a weak moment at Deco. Bailey came up to with the rope toy in his mouth. I don't know what got into me, but I grabbed at it. I've never played tug of war with any dog, EVER!!! Let alone Bailey. 

I know, he was just getting under my fur today. He took another wool toy today. He grabbed at my ears. And he even nipped at me. I just wanted to take his toy away even if it was just for a few moments. 

Alas, my mom caught it on tape. What can I say?

P.S. I'm sure it won't happen again.

Buy Now Before It's Too Late

Bailey's still up to puppy antics here at Deco. Last week he went shopping in the dollar basket, picked out a stuffed animal and chewed it up.

And now we just got in cool new wool dog and cat toys. But Bailey's already snatched one and chewed it up. If you want one of these, you better hurry in to Deco, because there's only four left. You've been warned. 

Doggy Couture

You'll never guess what Mom brought into the store. If you guessed, doggy fashions, you're right. I do get cold
in the winter and appreciate wearing a warm sweater, but dresses, really? Mom got me to pose in a cape with a hood. I'm not sure about it. What do you think? 

I'm calling all other dogs to talk to their parents about coming in and checking out the dog clothing, because I don't want to be the only one caught wearing a dress or hoody.

Chow,

Welcome to my blog, Tracy Dog Tells All

• Hi, my name's Tracy. I go to work everyday at Deco: Art for Living, a store in Tucson. My job is to greet everyone when they come into the gift gallery. My mom thinks I should have better store behavior. She thinks I bark too much, but that's what a security dog does. I think I'm doing my job. You'll just have to come in (2612 E. Broadway) and see for yourself.

• While you're in the store you'll want to check out all the cool items, there's jewelry, art, bamboo clothing, artist shirts, decorative accents, toys, and pet items. That's my favorite section, because there's blueberry treats for dogs. Mom feeds them to me because of the antioxidants. But I like them because they are so tasty. Sometimes I model, like in the photograph. I'm trying out one of the beds that was created by a local artist.

The Worst Thing Happened

You're not gonna believe what happened here at Deco. One Saturday, when I wasn't working at the store, they hosted a pet adoption day with The Humane Society of Southern Arizona. My aunt, co-owner of the store, adopted one of the dogs. I know just how it happened as if I was there that day. The dog, a brown cocker, pretended to be recovering from two surgeries and acted all whimpy. He just laid there, as I hear it told. Well, she adopted him. "He's still a puppy," they say. What an excuse! And what a pest. He keeps pawing me. I growl at him, but he just doesn't get it.

He jumps on people that come in the store, too. Well, they thought my store behavior needed improving. One day he tiptoed into the western room and grabbed a bendable cowboy. He chewed it up! Can you believe it? Another time he took a doggy purse and chewed it up. I caught him several more times in the act. One more chewing and he's out of here, I tell you. I'm telling all my followers and Deco customers, hurry in while there's still items for purchase.
