Smoochable Accessories for Valentine's Day

As Valentine's Day quickly approaches, Athena has been preparing to be the smoochiest dog in all of Portland.  Our friends over at Our Waldo Bungie have been helping to outfit Athena in the sweetest of Valentine's fashions to help her to receive lots of kisses on February 14th.

Just Dog Gone Cute Collars

As many of you know, we were the lucky winners of a Just Dog Gone Cute ribbon collar during Our Waldo Bungie's recent Giveaway-a-Day.  After lots of ribbon suggestions from Kelly (Just Dog Gone Cute's master mind), we decided on a Valentine's themed collar with "Hoo do u Love?" ribbon for Athena.

This collar is perfection with its pink and red sparkly ribbon that shows off Athena's lovable personality.  I just want to smooch her up when she wears this new collar!

Not only does Kelly create adorable ribbon collars for holidays, special occasions, and everyday fanciness, she also makes "Adopt Me" collars that would be perfect for any dog looking for their forever home.  We are totally smitten with Just Dog Gone Cute!

Tiennot Knits Bow Ties

Also featured in Our Waldo Bungie's 2012 Giveaway-a-Day were Tiennot Knits Sweater's newest line of knitted bow ties that the very handsome Chick and Doodlebug from Love and a Six Foot Leash modeled.  Athena definitely felt the smoochies coming on when she saw those handsome fellas wearing their very dapper bow ties.  She was ever so excited when her very own girly bow tie arrived in the mail!

Not only is this bow tie just the cutest thing I've ever seen, it's a PERFECT match to Athena's custom Tiennot Knits Sweater.  Athena has modeled it all around town already and everyone stops to admire its fanciness.  I especially love it when she wears it on her head like a headband because she looks just like Miss Hello Pitty.

Seeing as Athena has TWO Valentine's collars to wear on heart day, we might just have to extend it to become heart week so that she can get some good wear out of both of her new accessories.  I just know she's going to get lots of extra smoochies in these cuties.  I'm thinking even her new daycare boyfriend, Timber, might even send her an extra box of Sweathearts when he sees her wearing these adorable collars.

Will your pooch be sporting any Valentine's fashions this year?

Love It: Tiennot Knits Sweater

Athena's grandma (my mom) loves her granddog Athena.  She especially loves to buy lots of things for her.  So, of course when Emily from Our Waldo Bungie visited Portland in October, my mom HAD to place an order for a Tiennot Knits Sweater.  After much discussion while eating at the food carts, we decided that Athena needed a sweater that would scream "I'M A GIRL!," so we went with pink, green, and yellow for the yarn colors.  I call it Athena's girly Oregon Ducks sweater.

Athena definitely looks like a girl while wearing this sweater!

Tiennot Knits offers a variety of styles of sweaters as well as many yarn colors.  I specifically wanted a sweater that wouldn't have to go over Athena's head when putting it on, so it was just my luck that Tiennot came out with the Eshe style right before we ordered.  The sweater is so easy to put on Athena with two large buttons that attach at her chest and one that attaches across her stomach.

Since receiving our sweater over a month ago (this post is far overdue!), Athena has worn her sweater out and about on the town and around the house.  She was even featured on our local news while wearing her Tiennot Knits Sweater.  Everyone always stops to compliment the beautiful workmanship of the sweater.  People also just stop to appreciate a pit bull wearing such a fancy sweater.

If you have yet to check out Tiennot Knits, you can find them on Facebook where you will see loads of pictures of dogs wearing their custom sweaters along with instructions for placing an order.  These one-of-a-kind handmade sweaters are custom made to fit any size and breed of dog.

You know you want one too =)
