When a dog turns 13

Happy April Fools Day!

The note below was written to our customers in an email blast on April 1, ,2012.  This was our inaugural April Fool's Prank.  There was no such Bark-Mitzvah!  :)  Thanks for having such a great sense of humour.  Here's a little online special to our valued customers.  These two days of daycare will never expire.



...Marley recently turned 91... but in human years that's 13... so his parents decided to throw him a bark-mitzvah on this special ocasion.  When they approached me about renting the Woof & Shloof facility for this purpose I have to admit I was a little surprised... but I could quickly tell that they were genuine because they requested a Sunday (aka, not the Sabbath).

Rabbi Weimaraner led a beautiful service... it was the first of it's kind in Toronto (that I'd ever heard of anyway).  It wasn't a huge gathering, but nearly 45 guests attended (7 or 8 dogs and the rest humans).

Obviously this whole story is a little silly, but it's true and I couldn't make it up if I tried.  I am so grateful for the opportunity to attend such a fun and loving ceremony celebrating the wonderful life of this dog.  If you've never heard of a bark-mitzvah, then you have to check out some of the highlghts in the video below.
