Pack your things

No matter where we go as pups there are some essential items we always need with us. On da days leading up to da event you need to pack your bag with poop bags, some water and a bowl plus da most important thing…treats! You may even need a few other things like a coat in case it rains or I is always like to has my IndieBoho travel mat to sit on.

If you is going to a pawty ensure you has da birthday pups present ready and sign da card with your paw. For larger events where you may be able to spread da love maybe get some gifts like business cards or stickers to give to people and peppers who want to stay in touch. For da Dog Lovers Show I is has some business cards to give my adoring fans and some stickers to help them find me and my shop full of Wally merch!
