February 2015 News & Notes

Whisky is Back!

We are happy to have Whisky back at the shop! After his tragic hit-and-run accident he underwent surgery. Fortunately is was successful! As you can see from the photo he has two casts and has to take it easy for a bit, but he's here with us and we couldn't be happier!

Thank you to each and every person who donated to Whisky's GoFundMe campaign. We met our goal in less than 72 hours! The generosity our customers, fans, friends and neighbors showed us was overwhelming! Whisky still has awhile to go until he's back at 100%, but he will be at the shop most days throughout the week. Come by and give Whisky some love!
