Pierre might be a small pup, but he has a big loving heart and ambition.
For his pawty, mom Gladys Delgado decided to go with a tropical theme.
Not only they celebrated the special ocassion but also the launch of pierre's business; http://www.doggonecouture.com/


The dog cake featured Pierre in one of his couture designs.

Pups enjoyed eating the dog cake and posing for pictures at a special hand painted background

For pawty gifts , home made soaps made in bone, paws, palm trees and more fun shapes

Tips from Pierre's Pawty:

1. Mix diferent ocassions together to save on time and money

The Plank was walked by all pups to prove their skills to rule NJ with Captain Topino. Notice how turbulent waters were filled with alligators and sharks.

We learn from Topino's pawty:

1. Choose a theme to make the pawty even more fun!

2. Ask your guests to dress up to the theme. This can make great photos to be used later on for any ocassion greeting cards.

SUMMER BAKED POOCHIE TREATS

Daryll Chester shares this recipes with us.

I was recently asked to come up with a few Poochie treats for the 400 plus pit bulls that were rescued in Mo. from a variety of dog fighting rings. Jackie asked for something nutritious, easy to make and did not have a storage problem. So in honor of the rescue organizations, sponsors and the dogs themselves I have come up with three summer treat recipes. They all will be very cost efficient, help boost the immune system, easy to make and easy to ship & store.
