Hounds in the Header: In the Green!

Spring is right around the corner, and soon all dogs (and cats) will be able to enjoy lying on a carpet of green grass, just like Cody (beagle) and friend Bella (doxie). Cody belongs to Rebecca of Little Paper Boutique. Cody will soon have a new friend! Any time now a little people brother or sister will join the family! Congratulations, Rebecca...and Cody! :)

Happy Valentine's Day from the Etsy Beagles!

The Etsy Beagles team wishes everyone lots of puppy love this Valentine's Day! Our Hound in the Header is Velvet, whose owner runs the Etsy shop, CiaoHound. Nothing like some good treats for your favorite furbaby this month! Velvet is also involved with the Etsy team petsjubilee, and her owner is the Team Captain. Many of our Beagles Team members are also members of petsjubilee. Check out their store for some great pet sampler boxes! Also, take a peek at all the great Beagles team member shops from our sidebar list here!

Happy New Year from the Etsy Beagles!

Time to ring in the New Year! Our hound in the header, Hunter from Hunter'sHideaway and CutiepieCompany, is all ready to party and welcome 2012 in beagle-style! Everyone on the Etsy Beagles Team wishes all of you a wonderful New Year!

'Tis the Season!

Flash is hanging out on the front porch a lot lately, waiting for Santa, of course! The Etsy Beagles Team wishes Happy Holidays to everyone! Don't forget to do your Christmas shopping at the great Etsy shops belonging to our Beagles team members! Links to our shops are on the sidebar.

Hopefully, the Beagles Team will soon have a new captain! Don't worry, me (MsAnomaly) and Flash will still be active on the team.

"God bless Us, Every One!"

August Hound in the Header

I hope everyone has had a great summer thus far! As we approach the fall season, it's time to just relax and enjoy the end of summer; just like Roxie, our new hound in the header! Roxie is a sheltie who shares her life with Beagles team member Pawsalicious. Visit this shop for great pet items, including Roxie's favorite cookies! Our team has been pretty mellow during last month's HOT weather, but we are ready to start planning our fall team challenge/blog giveaway. Check our blog for details, and have a great August!

Hounds in the Header say Happy Father's Day!

What better way to celebrate Father's Day than by featuring many of "man's best friends" in our blog header! This wonderful group belongs to team member Billie Rosen, our one-woman shelter! Although this photo was taken a while ago, Billie's menagerie constantly changes. Many have found new homes, and new animals have joined Billie's family as foster pets. Billie's beagle, Sophie, is a permanent member of her family! Can you see Sophie in the photo? (Didn't know this would be a "hidden-pictures" header - LOL!) Happy Father's Day to all our Dads from the Etsy Beagles Team! We'd like to remind you to check out the link to our Yowl-o Pawges, a list of all our team members' shops, by category. It will make shopping for Dad a walk in the park!
