Denver's Dog Police Are Trolling for Fines

Beware!!!! One of our customers received an $80 ticket from Denver's dog "police" today in Cesar Chavez park, across the street from our store. Because she didn't have her dog's city registration tag with her there is another $80 tacked onto her fine. The city is clearly out of money and scraping by by sending their non-furloughed employees out to stalk unsuspecting dog owners frolicking with their dogs at empty parks. Unless you've got money to burn (and contribute to Denver's coffers) you might want to stick with the designated dog parks. There is a great dog park at 46th and Sheridan - near our store. Not only is this completely fenced in and safe for your dog but you will have a great time meeting other like-minded, dog people! If you're tempting fate, consider purchasing one of Ruffwear's Quickdraw leashes. These velcro around your dog's collar and can be quickly released if the dog police jumps out from behind a bush. At less than $20, it will save you a considerable amount of money if you don't end up with a ticket!

Santa Claws is coming to town.... and stopping at Mouthfuls

Bring your dog(s) and kid(s) to Mouthfuls for a festive holiday photo with Mr. and Mrs. Claws.

Kittens found a new home!

Despite our amazing amount of snow, Mouthfuls was open today. Even better.... the kittens found a new home! These darling little babies went home with one of our favorite customers, who has actually become a very good friend of ours. She's fully equipped to handle them and we can't wait to hear how they do as they grow up. Now that was worth spending an hour digging out the driveway, driving through ice and shoveling out the store! Note to everyone... sometimes the most amazing experiences in our lives present themselves in the smallest little packages, when we least expect them. These little babies are so lucky to have been found before the snowstorm and have a happy life ahead of them.

Darling Kittens Found Near Mouthfuls

This darling little boy and girl were found abandoned in an alley near Mouthfuls a few days ago. Thankfully, they were found by a couple of well-meaning women before this heavy snowstorm! We're guessing they are between 4-6 weeks old and they are already happily lapping up Wellness canned kitten food and using the litter box. We'd love to have them find a home together but it's most important that they go to a good home! The kittens will be in the store most days in the near future until they get adopted. If you're interested in taking a look at them, give us a call at the store first to make sure they're in the store. Once they're adopted, we'll post another entry on the blog to share the good news with everyone!
