PAWSH MAGAZINE | A New Breed of Dog Magazine

{by Becky Valentine} Polka dots make me smile. They’re just so fun and playful, I can’t help but be happy when I see them.  Which is why I chose to make Polka Dots this month’s Pawsh Pattern, and lucky for me there seems to be no shortage of polka dot themed dog accessories.  From collars and leashes to beds, toys, and bowls, bright and colorful polka dots are on everything your pup could ever want or need.

Check out where to get these fashionable and fun polka dog accessories below:

1. Colorful Polka Dot Collars from Etsy

I think the orange polka dot dog bed from Joss and Main is my favorite.  What’s yours?

It would be enough to make any heart burst, but what I adored most of all was the fact that each of these replies were honest, raw examples of true love. Today I would like to share five of these great love stories with you…

Earlier this year I shared with you a new initiative called ‘Pawsh Pictures‘ to help Toronto-area families in financial need receive free pet photo sessions. I pledged to donate one free pet photo session a month (shot by yours truly) so that families can have photos of their beloved furball to cherish forever. (more…)
