It’s National Dog Day, and there’s nothing like celebrating the occasion by cuddling up next to your fluffy friend. The Southlake Style team loves to do the same thing with their own pets. As you appreciate your favorite four-legged pal on this special day, check out some of our own styler’s canines and learn what they love so much about them.
Sparky and Rory, Golden Retrievers
“Sparky’s a people lover, especially once you show him you can give him a good pet. Rory’s a food lover — especially once you show him you’ll give him a treat or biscuit. Together, they’re living their best life with us.”
- Mike and Nicole Tesoriero, Publisher and Sales and Marketing Director
Kenlly and Kandy, Golden Retrievers
“We got Kenlly six years ago, a month after our other golden retriever had passed. She is a sweetie and loves her walks and snuggles. Kandy we got three years ago, and she is actually a sister of Kenlly. She is a wigglebutt and loves to swim. They are inseparable. Two golden retrievers are better than one.”
- Kelly Rose, Office Coordinator
Braxton, Red Heeler Brittany Mix
“Braxton is a 6-year-old, mascara-eyed, kangaroo-jumping, Frito-toed momma’s boy. He loves sunbathing and yelling at neighbor's dogs and family cows. He prefers being the little spoon, is the most attentive when someone is upset and his favorite toy is Mrs. Piggy. Oh, and golden female dogs are his type.”
- Kristan Borges, Marketing and Events Coordinator
Mocha and Buster, Boston Terriers
“Mocha is a bright-eyed and energetic rascal that loves running around and playing in the backyard. She loves people, food even more so. Buster is very timid and shy at first, but he will love on anybody once you break through his comfort zone. These two are easily the wackiest, cutest dogs you’ll ever meet.”
- David Dunn, Staff Writer
Audrey and Bacall, Basset Hound and Border Collie Lab Mix
“We got Audrey and Bacall around six or seven years ago. Bacall is such a sweet yet crazy dog. Whenever we give her treats, she eats them in less than two bites. Unlike her sister, Audrey is thoughtful, cautious and anxious, but she’s also one of the sweetest dogs ever.”
- Lizzy Spangler, Contributing Writer
Tot, Cavapoo
“Tot recently turned 2 and is nothing but trouble. She is the epitome of a lap dog and enjoys hiding tennis balls around the house. She is all things cute and cuddly, and in her spare time, she enjoys begging for food and playing with her sister, Cassie.”
- Brandee Champagne, Business Development Account Executive
