Rock The Spring Season

Spring is almost here and everyone is ready to come out the darker fashion colors and into something lighter and brighter. It’s been a while since we’ve added new accessories and we’re excited to present some fabulous fashion finds for our human customers.
Skulls are always on trend and our multicolor skull scarves in Spring colours are sure to add that special finish to your wardrobe. They’re super large and light and can be worn in so many ways.

Another great accessory is our dog collar inspired pyramid stud cuff It makes a statement with four big and bold gold studs. You’ll see a lot of celebrities wearing them both in a casual and dressy way.

Funny Bones Sponsor Highlight

Each year the Funny Bones Foundation holds it’s annual Sammy Shore’s Funny Bones All Star Comedy Jam. This event just keeps growing and we have some amazing and generous people and companies involved in it. One of those companies is K9 Carry All. I met the owner of the company through Twitter and eventually met at Super Zoo in Vegas. Never underestimate the power of Twitter and other social media platforms. So a simple tweet ended with K9 Carry All making a custom leash/collar for the Funny Bones celebrity swag bags.

We love our pets so much and getting a personalized product makes that product just extra special. The process of supplying K9 Carry All with the Funny Bones logo image, quantity, and shipping was so seamless. It was exciting to open up the box and see how wonderful they looked, the quality was beyond my expectation. Another unique aspect of the product was that is was a collar and leash in one with a hook on the end. You could use it to secure your dog, clip it to a belt while you run, or add another leash to it for extra length. Or even wear it around your neck…wink wink.

The closure was a sturdy one and had a great look too. You can buy regular retail from their store or participate in their wholesale programme if you are a company that needs a walking billboard. I see the custom logos as a great way for rescues to raise funds.

If you love a good quality product that has great function and form then you need to visit K9 Carry All. They carry many other products that I’m sure you will love too!

Thank you K9 Carry All for your support for the Funny Bones Foundation in Vegas.

And It’s A Wrap!

2010 has been a huge year for Vegas Rock Dog where we have experienced massive business growth, produced and participated in many fundraising events, had the media spot light beamed on us, and expanded our social media circle.

We want to thank the many friends, customers, business associates, media outlets, venues, and social media experts who have helped us this year.

If it wasn’t for these fine establishments we would have never had a home for our events this year.

Palms Hotel, Las Vegas for allowing Funny Bones to have a home to raise over $16,000 for pet rescue through Sammy Shore’s All Star Comedy Jam.

Pete’s Duelling Pianos, Las Vegas allowing us to host a Tweet Up with The Culinary K9 to raise funds for the Las Vegas Hot Diggity Dachshund Club and Rescue.

Espresso Culture and Cuisine, Las Vegas for not only being the host venue for Vegas Rock Dog’s Yappy Hour but also making their coffee shop the premier pet friendly place in Vegas. They boast a pet bathroom, poop bags, water for your dogs, and treats and it doesn’t get anymore pet friendly than that.

The Queen Vic Pub, Las Vegas, for hosting the very first British HI-Tini event and selecting the Las Vegas Hot Diggity Dachshund Club and Rescue as the recipient of the funds raised through their raffle.

The Blue Martini for being the gracious host venue for the Open Bar 4 Charity where funds raised for four charities including the Las Vegas Hot Diggity Dachshund Club and Rescue.

Sponsors

Events come together due to many people having a passion for dogs and what would we do if we didn’t have our sponsors? In a year where many businesses were trying to keep afloat there were so many that still showed support for our events.

A big thank you goes to every single one of our family members, our friends, our customers, our followers, and fans for supporting our business and supporting and encouraging the difference we have tried to make in the world of dog rescue.

Thanks go to Leilani, Barbara, Sloane, Jordan, Stacey, and Kathy at the Las Vegas Hot Diggity Dachshund Club & Rescue for allowing us to adopt them as our favourite rescue. They’re “Saving the World One Wiener at A Time”.

A special thank you goes out to two young ladies who we admire and can only imagine the difference they will make in the world. Sloane and Jordan you absolutely rock!

Our final thanks go to Leilani the President and Barbara the Director of Rescue. Words really cannot express fully how much they mean to us. Their dedication and passion is immeasurable, how they do what they do each day for these dogs is beyond explanation. Every dog that comes into their rescue is a lucky dog….because they get to go to their forever homes.

We wish for everyone in our lives a fun New Year’s Eve and a rocking 2011 and lots of kisses and belly rubs for all the Vegas Rock Dogs we know!

Land of the Wieners

Last weekend hundreds of wiener dogs descended on Vegas for the 7th Annual Hallo-Wiener. The Las Vegas Hot Diggity Dachshund Club and Rescue hosts this annual fundraiser to bring monies in to support the rescue of this funny little breed. As you may have seen on the national news Las Vegas is ground zero for home foreclosures and in turn the rescue community has seen a massive rise in abandoned, surrendered, and neglected dogs. So it’s with this in mind that rescue fundraisers take on a more serious note than ever before. It’s a simply equation, the more monies raised the more dogs will be helped.

Our company Vegas Rock Dog “adopted” this rescue as one of our main causes. For the past three years we have participated as a vendor and I have been a judge also of their legendary costume, belly rub, and kissing contests. This past year we’ve been heavily involved in signing up vendors, securing raffle and silent auction prizes, and getting the word out to the community. Clearly all the work of the rescue staff, club members, friends, and volunteers paid off on this day as the attendance was spectacular.

The weather as always is perfect in the month of October and that’s why Vegas become saturated with pet related events. I believe that Hallo-Wiener is the most fun with many elements to it. As I mentioned earlier I’ve been a judge for the contests and each year the judging gets more and more difficult as the costumes get more and more creative. The belly rub contest is always cute to watch and judging which dog is the most in heaven from the belly rub and attention is a hard one to judge. Similar to the belly rub the kissing contest can get pretty wild as those little sausage dogs lick away at their owners faces. I wonder if they know if they’re competing for a prize?

One element of the day is wiener racing. It has to be the one thing that these little dogs absolutely love to participate in. Now don’t think for one minute that those little legs can’t run because not only to they run but they become airborne as they see a familiar face cheering them on at the finish line. You’ll see many techniques at the wiener races adopted by the owners to get their dog to run down the lane to that finish line, there’s a lot of screaming, squealing, toys squeaking, and treats being waved.

The Hallo-Wiener event has it all, races, contests, auction, raffle, food, and vendors and I suggest you put it on your calendar for next year….you wiener dog will thank you for it.

Woof woof!

 

Something To Bark About

We’ve been wrapped up in many dog related events recently and wanted to take a moment to share with you what we’ve been up to.

Or most memorable event has been our launch of Yappy Hour. We have friends who own Espresso Culture and Cuisine in Las Vegas. Most people who know us will tell you that Espresso is our home away from home for great coffee, hip music, relaxing decor, and a great place to hop on your computer and do some work. I’d talked to Ryan the owner if he was interested in making his large shaded patio pet friendly. Now as dog lovers pet friendly doesn’t mean your dog can sit on the patio, it means having access to a pet bathroom, poop bags, water bowls, and dog biscuits. So from this simple conversation a launch event was planned.

The evening was better than we had expected with more than 100% of the RSVP attending! We had drinks specials for the evening, Yappy-Tizers for the dogs, a raffle to benefit the Las Vegas Hot Diggity Dachshund Club and Rescue where we raised $300, and doggy goody bags for all the celebredogs that attended. My favourite part of the evening was our “green carpet” kindly donated to us by Green Living Services. We personally are customers of GLS and can vouch for their superior artificial grass products. Yappy-Tizers were provided by The Culinary K9 and those pups loved them. Our pet photographer for the evening was Unleashed Las Vegas. Without Claudine we would not have these wonderful memories of our event.

Below is a video of our event.

Due to a great interest in socializing with your dog Espresso have now added a regular Yappy Hour to their weekly happenings. Yappy Hour is every Saturday 6-9pm and if you’re on the patio with your dog you can ask for their drinks and food specials. As I said earlier your dog is definitely accommodated when you visit Espresso.

Any events that we produce are always a success due to our sponsors and this event was no exception. We wanted to list the wonderful and generous pet loving sponsors that made Yappy Hour so much fun.

Hallo-Weiner 2010

The Las Vegas Hot Diggity Dachshund Club & Rescue main fundraiser Hallo-Wiener 2010 will soon be upon us and we’re already starting to spread the word. The event will be held Saturday October 9th, 11am-3pm and located at the Kellogg-Zaher Sports Complex and Dog Park in the Summerlin area.

I love this event as the weather in Vegas is so fabulous at that time of year. Last year there were 600 attendees at  Hallo-Wiener with the famous Hallo-Wiener costume contest and wiener races being the main attractions.

This year I’m working on getting as many vendors as possible to attend this super fun time…I once again will be a vendor. Each year we aim to raise more funds than the previous year and we do that through event sponsorship, vendors, raffles, and admission to the event.  All ways in which you can participate are very reasonable. Please take a look at last year’s video courtesy of 100.5 Jack FM who were last years sponsor and we are delighted to say they are sponsoring our event again this year.

It’s easy to see why our event is so popular.

Fashion and Function For Fido

As you probably know,  I love fashion for dogs and for the most part dressing our dogs is an extension of our own fashion sense.  However, there are some items out there that truly have a function and can benefit your dog.  Recently my little Thornton has been suffering allergies that were so severe that putting a tank top on her prevented her from taking her ever so limber back legs and scratching her sides.  She had a cone for a while to prevent chewing but it didn’t prevent her from using her back legs. So a tank top or tee-shirt can be an aid and so can boots and shoes for dogs.  Here in Vegas we experience the most extreme of heat and the pavement and asphalt retain the heat through the day. Only a couple of weeks ago I was talking to a couple with a German Shepherd and their dog started to lift his feet in pain from the heat of the parking lot.  The couple said to me “We don’t know why he does that”.  I know what you’re thinking but believe me common sense isn’t that common.  So I told them it was burning his feet and to pick him up and either choose not to bring him out in the heat or get him some boots.  Now the boots not only protect in the heat but if you walk anywhere that has rough terrain such as trails they serve to protect from anything that is rough and sharp.  I’ve looked at many version of boots and shoes and my favourite one for function is the Grip Trex design from Bark’n Boots TM.  I like how they really mimic the shape of a dog’s foot and the traction, protection, and ventilation that they offer.  They can be washed and you can purchase liners for them. They are known as the all terrain, all conditions, and all seasons boots.  If you care about the well-being of your dog and live in a hot climate or you love your trail walks these are the boots for your fido.

Shine On Shine Pet Photos

I was fortunate to meet and work with Grace Chon of Shine Pet Photos a couple of weeks ago. I got to meet Grace who was voted LA’s Top Pet Photographer through a friend who is a celebrity in the dog world herself and that is Laura Nativo. If you were a fan of CBS’ Greatest American Dog, you will definitely remember the handsome Preston Casanova the furry man in Laura’s life. It was Laura’s email about a Vegas casting for one of Grace’s projects that put me, my husband, and my dogs in front of her camera.

Grace’s project is currently under wraps and I shall update when the time is appropriate, however I wanted to share with you the experience of working with Grace. You know the old saying “Don’t work with children or animals”?, well in this instance Grace needs to keep working with animals as her work is not simply getting a dog to look at a camera, it is art, and it is art that is changing the lives of dogs and their owners.

My rescue dog Thornton was lucky to be cast for Grace’s shoot and what was exciting was the fact that we could choose a location that was personal to me and my dog.  My husband and my furry family are big fans of coffee shops that allow dogs on their patios. My absolute  favourite is Espresso Culture and Cuisine. Being British I miss the aesthetic of European coffee shops and Espresso satisfies that need for me with great design, superior service, and most of all exquisite coffees.

It was an 8am call which for any fashionista is a tall order to fill. I’d brought a few collar selections for Thornton as she is quite the fashionista herself and with Grace’s expertise the pink collar was to be the one. Our request to shoot inside was granted which thrilled us since their decor is fabulous and we were well into triple digit temps in Vegas.

I knew it would be a test for both of my dogs as Thornton was going to be in the shoot with Jim and myself and my Galaxy would be observing. Vanessa, Grace’s colleague on the project had the task of keeping Miss Galaxy comfortable and relaxed while we did our shoot. I have to tell you it didn’t feel like a shoot at all. We stepped away from giving commands and the “leash” was handed over to Grace who had a super sweet way of getting Miss Thornton to move the way she needed. Grace had my girl focused yet relaxed and Thornton was happy to please her. Similarly Vanessa was doing the same for Galaxy who warmed up to her in an instant. You would have thought that with the early morning coffee drinker traffic, hissing and popping coffee machines, music, and a stranger directing your dog; that a hope for the best approach would be adopted. Despite these many distractions it was easy to see how Grace has earned her reputation. Her aura and communication skills are off the chart….she had us all sucked into her world including the staff and regulars who were super buzzed about that a shoot as unusual as this was happening in their neighbourhood coffee shop…and coffee probably played a part in the buzz too.

I have to say I was proud of both of my dogs as it had to be challenging for them and I was relieved that we didn’t have any embarassing moments that would ban me from my home away from home…ha ha. We got to look in the camera at some of the shots and we were amazed. Grace’s photography is of a level that is real, real life settings, real life emotions, and the capture of the very real personalities and souls . The goal isn’t to get all parties in the shoot to look at the camera at once and snap away; it’s to capture a moment in time that will leave a lasting impression and showcase the unique personality of your pet that you would recognize in an instant. Contrived is in no way a part of Grace’s work. We were honoured to have had this experience with her…personally it was the highlight of my year.

Grace’s work goes beyond the camera as she also zooms in on pet rescue and flashes a light on an ever growing problem. She takes her weekends to take head shots of rescue dogs in various rescues known as her “Extreme Dog Makeovers“. These photographs are powerful in getting the dogs adopted….her Extreme Dog Makeovers are responsible for many adoptions and fairy tale endings for both dog and owner.

If there was a way to describe GRACE  it  would be:

Gifted + Rare + Artistic + Compassionate + Engaging!

Please pay a visit to Grace’s site and see the full scope of her company Shine Pet Photos and her blog is certainly worth subscribing to if you are in love with dogs, rescue or photography.

Twitter and Pete’s Dueling Pianos Working in a Charitable Way for Las Vegas Dachshunds

A great friend of mine Beth and a true friend to the Las Vegas pet community was a lucky winner through Twitter today. She was fortunate to win a customer appreciation party for 100 people at Pete’s Dueling Pianos in Las Vegas. After chatting about the party we felt it would be cool to make it a Tweetup since that was the way in which Beth won the party.  Then the conversation turned into being charitable and why not take the opportunity of having pet lovers make a difference and give a helping hand to one of the hardest working rescues in Las Vegas. So from Pete’s Dueling Pianos wonderful customer appreciation party there was also another a pay it forward to help others.  The chosen rescue was the Las Vegas Hot Diggity Dachshund Club and Rescue. There are many pet charities in Las Vegas but a lot of the hard working smaller rescues are often overlooked as their exposure is not as prominent as some of the larger rescues who tend to have more funds to advertize. So with that said in the matter of an evening Beth who is the proud owner of  The Culinary K9 and Vegas Rock Dog cooked up a fantastic evening to raise funds through Pete’s Dueling Pianos customer appreciation party and THE CULINARY K9 & PALS Tweetup 2 Benefit the Las Vegas Hot Diggity Dachshund Club & Rescue

Between Beth and Sam the owner of Vegas Rock Dog and their generous pet loving friends and business associates they in a matter of hours had sponsors donating to the raffle. The proceeds from the raffle will directly benefit the Las Vegas Hot Diggity Dachshund Club & Rescue. If you are interested in donating a product or service to the raffle you can email contact@vegasrockdog.com

Twitter A Fabulous World Community #Pawpawty Helps Animals in Need

 

Twitter has proven that you can create communities made up of people from all over the world by sending out a tweet. Still fairly new myself to Twitter I will say there is a learning curve as to all the wonderful things you can do with this new phenom. Yes a simple message with only 140 characters is more powerful than you can imagine. An example of creativity by one of the anipals on Twitter is Frugal Dougal who created the #pawpawty. Frugal Dougal is a 13 year old cairn terrier. On a daily basis I would see the hashtag #pawpawty but hadn’t grasped the concept of the hashtag reference. So I sent out my tweet this morning asking someone to explain the #pawpawty. I would like to send a shout out to @sylviedog and @dogstories for hipping me to the #pawparty and a great article that made it all very clear. #pawpawty was created by @frugaldougal and about once a month, a virtual party is organized to raise money for animal rescue organizations.  Hey I thought I want to be a part of the #pawpawty after all if there’s a pawty I want to be invited. Frugal Dougal is from England and I’m a Brit living in Vegas so I felt an instant connection to the mother land and to the cause of #pawpawty site. You can join the pawty here http://frugaldougaldog.blogspot.com and donate here http://www.justgiving.com/frugaldougal I loved the idea of #pawpawty and bringing people from all over the world together for a worthy cause and instantly wanted to be involved in the next rockin’ paws in the air #pawpawty. I intend to donate a Vegas Rock Dog TM gift to the next pawty as that is an exciting part of the event and I urge you to get involved. Here’s the full article link here and if you’re on Twitter follow us @ www.twitter.com/vegasrockdog
