Ask Me Where My Wiener’s Been…

I have to say that one of the things I like best about my job is when I open up my e-mail to find a new order and the exciting moment that follows when I get to see where in the world I will be sending my jewellery!

I recently bought a map and started to mark on the map where I have sent my doxie jewellery! I brought the map with me to Wienerfest and it was a real conversation starter. I was told by previous customers places they had sent my jewellery or places they intended to send it. I even had a woman tell me she was going to send my business card to the breeder where she got her dog back in Germany!

So here is my list of places I have sent S’wag so far. If you have purchased a piece and sent it somewhere (or you live somewhere) that is not on our list we would love to hear about it! I think S’wag has travelled more places then I have! I can’t wait to see where S’wag will travel to next!

I Let My Wiener Play at Wienerfest!

June is definitely the most wienerful time of the year. Do you know why? Because all month I get to make and polish new pieces, and design new work all in anticipation of Wienerfest! On June 23rd my excitement bubbled out of me in shreiks and giggles as I witnesses the largest gathering of wiener dogs!!! I want to squeal right now just thinking about it!

This year Wienerfest was held at its spacious new venue in Embro, Ontario. There was more room, more vendors and more wieners! We (My sister attended with me again this year!) had a great spot in the shade next to wiener wares a company that make hilarious printed shirts.

We had a fantastic time meeting everyone and all the dachshunds! We even recognized some familiar faces. One of my favourite things was that people recognized S’wag as well! We even got to meet someone who bought a piece of dachshund jewellery from me over 4 years ago before S’wag was even born! It was amazing!

The countdown is already on to next years Wienerfest!  Join us Saturday, June 22nd, 2013!

Follow the yellow brick road to stardom?

Does your pup have the cutest face in show business? Is he the next Uggie?

We came across this casting call – CBC is doing a TV Show to find Dorothy to star in an upcoming production of Wizard of Oz…

And, if you know the story like we do, you know, who’s Dorothy without Toto?

So, they have a casting call for the little pup too!

There’s an open casting call at Woofstock in Toronto! Saturday June 9th, from 9am. St. Lawrence Market Neighborhood, Toronto.

They are looking a well-trained and loveable pooch in any breed. Does your dog have what it takes?

Good luck! Let us know if you are taking your dog to the auditions! We’ll cheer for you when the show airs!
