Passport to Meaford

The Waggin' Tail is participating in an exciting new promotion in the Town of Meaford called "Passport Meaford". It runs from Sept. 1 - December 31, 2011 and 24 local merchants are taking part.  There will be 500 passports available free of charge at various locations (the Waggin' being one) and over the 4 months passport holders are invited to drop in to any of the merchants and receive a promotional offer and a stamp saying that they were there.  Once you have 8 stamps you can enter for a draw for one of two fabulous prizes.  Either $500 Meaford bucks to be spent at the 24 businesses or a package for a night out with accomodations, dinner, lunch and a show all offering some of what we do best.  If you see this, come in after Sept 1 and get a passport.  Hope to see you soon, there are only 500 passports available!

Cheers,
Joyce and Sparky

I can't believe it is already mid-August!

Where is the summer going?  But I guess that happens every year.  It has been a great one at the Waggin' Tail Cafe, I have met many fabulous dogs with their very interesting owners.  As you will see in the photos we had our first birthday party, my friend Krista was celebrating for her best doggie companion "Gazoo" .  The handsome Gazoo turned two and had 4 or 5 of his friends and their human companions along with a human relative or two to join the party.  We had a cake and lots of presents, "happy birthday Gazoo"!
I have brought in a line of "human footwear" by the name of "DAWGS"................with a name like that how can I resist.  Besides, after buying my first pair, and not wanting to take them off for at least a week, I new they were a winner.
I would like to thank "On the Bay " magazine for their fantastic photo and coverage of the Cafe in their summer issue.  You are an awesome magazine I am very grateful!
Remember that we would love to help you celebrate any special pet events and hope you are already planning your 4 legged hallowe'en costume for the party.
We are starting a "customer wall of fame" here at the Waggin' Tail as well and if I forget to take any doggies picture please remind me (my memory is not what it used to be) as I want to have photos of all of Sparky's friends. There was a very sad event in our community recently in which we lost one of our sweet friends, I was very thankful to have a few photos from the shop to offer in memory.  Love you Maggie, all of the very best Wayne.  We are thinking of you.
Stay safe everyone and bye for now. Thanks so much to all of our wonderful past and future patrons and hope to see you soon.
