Spring at Keep On Wagging! has been great!  We’ve been out and about sniffing new people and dogs all over North Carolina, South Carolina and Georgia.  We’ve been to dog shows, street festivals, a crab festival (yum, yum, yum by the way) and a strawberry festival (again, yum, yum, yum).  We’ve even been to a Pet Fest and a Paw Jam (whatever those are…)  And now we’re getting ready to go to Virginia for the first time.

Yep, we’re headed North… okay, not too far north this time, but still north of my beach in South Carolina… I wonder if they speak the same language way up in Virginia?  Anyway, if you haven’t had a chance to put your paws on any Keep On Wagging! stuff yet, this might be the chance you’ve been waiting for… Hope to see you there!  …Oh, Wait a minute, I guess it would help if I told you when and where in Virginia… (;>)–

If you’ve never been to an AKC Dog show you’ve missed out on a great experience.  I can almost guarantee that you’ll see breeds of dogs you’ve never seen in your neighborhood dog park.  Hope to see you there! (now I can say it…)  By the way, we will be heading up and down the East Coast in the coming months.  Checkout our Events Page to see where we’ve been and where we’ll be next.

And of course, since I have you here… Thought I’d give you a peek at one more t-shirt design we’ve just released to my website.  This design is called Wherever life takes you and it goes to the very heart of the Keep On Wagging! spirit.  We’ve got this one in Adult Lt. Green (my favorite) and Ladies Flo Blue.

Keep On Wagging! wherever life takes you

… and you thought our Keep On Wagging! at the Beach design was fiction?  Nope, we love the beach and we definitely love crabs, especially cooked crabs dipped in a little hot butter (like the one that’s been baking in the sun in our at the Beach t-shirt design…

This weekend we’ll be celebrating Blue Crabs with tens of thousands of our closest friends at the Blue Crab Festival in Little River, SC.

If you’re in the area make sure you stop by, eat some crab, listen to some great beach music and maybe even do a little shagging while you’re there.

… oh, yeah, and of course, you’ll be able to pick up one of our Keep On Wagging! at the Beach t-shirts (or one of our other great design) while you’re there…  See you in Little River!

Keep On Wagging! (and Shagging!)

Woof! Woof! Circle, Circle….wag, wag… I am SOOOOOO excited about the news! Matter of fact, I’m so excited that I almost piddled while I was pawing this email out.  (that would have been so embarrassing…)

Anyway, as I was about to bark, I have GREAT news to share… it’s the type of news that could change your life forever (well, maybe not THAT great but still pretty good)… the great news is…  … … coming up (everybody say it with me…) “After the Break”

— break —

Looks like it’s now after the break so I can give you the great news… Keep On Wagging! has just released more new designs on my website!

What?  You thought the great news was that everybody who read this email was going to get a free new car?  Nope, sorry, that’s Oprah’s Goldens who can afford to give away free cars… I know we Golden’s all sort of look alike but…

Wow, now you’re probably bummed out that you didn’t win a car… that didn’t work out quit like I thought it would…   Anyway, since you’re still reading I think I’ll go ahead and show you the new designs that are now available at www.KeepOnWagging.com.  I’m pretty sure they’ll make you forget about that whole free car thing.  (;>)–

The Eat Sleep Fetch design says, well, it pretty much sums up my life… ain’t it great being a dog? (;>)– We’ve go this new design available in the Ladies Lagoon Blue and the Adult Ice Blue.

Will Work for Treats features my buddy Lucky and one of my newest friends, Calvin (AKA “Little Lost Dog Jack”  You may remember that my people found Jack (err, Calvin) lost behind our house… he stayed with us for a couple of days until we found his real home.  He made such an impression on us that he made it onto some of our new designs.  If you missed the whole ‘Lost Jack’ story you can read about it at my blog. We’ve got this design available in Adult Crimson and Ladies Blossom.

And lastly, Dog Park features me and a bunch of my friends doing what dogs do at a dog park.  This design includes some of my old friends like Tia the Lab and Chiquillo the Chihuahua as well as new friends like Calvin and Lucky.  Dog Park is available in Adult Blue Jean.

And, since you didn’t win the free car (again, sorry to get you all excited) I’ve got my people to throw in FREE SHIPPING for the next few days on your next order over $30 (order by 5/17/09).  When you checkout use Coupon Code: NOTACAR and then select “Free Shipping” as your Shipping rate.

Part I – “The Ride”

(at LOONNGGG last I’m back to share a new adventure… I’ve been on some great adventures since the last one I shared but with all the stamp licking and belly rubbing appearances at events I’ve been too busy to share them… this one is pretty long so I making it a two-parter  … I can hardly wait to see out it turns out… wait a minute, it was my adventure so I guess I already know how it turns out… don’t worry, I won’t spoil the ending for you… hope you enjoy… Max)

And so another adventure begins…

I hope we’re going for around the neighborhood… I really need to go around the block and pee on that hydrant in front of Lucky’s house… he’s marked my hydrant twice and I keep missing his… last time I was outta pee before I got to his house (yes, it’s true… there actually is a point when I can’t pee anymore… fortunately it usually on lasts a few minutes) I keep trying to pace myself but he’s way on the back street and there are just so many things that need to be peed on before we get there… this time I’m going to hold it util I get to his street… sniff… sniff… peeeeeee… okay, now I’m going to hold it… Continue reading ‘Max the Golden Retriever Goes Camping – Part I’
