May 11th, 2011 by Thea

Have you seen Brewster? This adorable puggle was last seen on Tuesday afternoon on the corner of 1st Ave N and Galer.

He has a microchip, but no collar, and is greatly missed by his owners. If you or anyone you know has any information about Brewster’s whereabouts, call 206-617-2235, or respond to the posting in the forum.

Update 11: 20 a.m.: Bewster’s owner has just notified us that he’s been found and is on his way home now.

All the Best Pet Care hosts doggy chow cook-off benefiting senior dog rescue group

February 16th, 2011 by Thea

The Upper Queen Anne All the Best Pet Care hosted an alternative, natural dog food feast called “Let Us Cook for Your Wolf” for Valentine’s Day on Monday evening. The event benefited Old Dog Haven, a group working to help Western Washington’s senior dog population through adoptions and senior dog placement.

Two guest chefs, All the Best owner Susan Moss and Julia Forbes, of “The Dog Talk Show“, specializing in canine cooking, served up a scrumptious dinner for Queen Anne’s dogs. The event only raised $110 dollars, but All the Best marketing coordinator Stella Brockbank says it was well worth it.

“So many cute faces attended,” she wrote. “Thanks to all our Queen Anne customers who attended this fun event for a great cause!”

Dogs have their day at the market

August 6th, 2009 by Heidi

It was the first ever Dog Day at the Queen Anne Farmer’s Market this week.  Not every market allows people to bring their pups but as director Julie Whitehorn summed it up, “Queen Anne loves its dogs.”  No questions asked.  From the looks of things, the four-legged friends didn’t mind a bit. 
 
This little doggie went to market.

So did this one named Roxie.

Who knew cats aren’t the only ones who like fish?  Lorene from Two If By Sea Foods handed out pink salmon for a treat.  There were also special biscuits made by Dog Mountain Farm and pooch pics from Chris and Emi’s Photography.  The Seattle Humane Society’s Maxmobile was there to adopt out pets, too.

At the end of the evening, pet boutique Mes Amis chose a king and queen canine and awarded prizes.  He’s a little camera shy but 11-month-old, “100%-mutt” Django was crowned king of the pack.

She may not be an actual cougar, but Django’s queen IS a 9 1/2-year-old boxer named Maddie. 

Next week is Wellness Week at the market.  Check their website for updates.
