Shop 'til you drop

We hope your Black Shopping experience was more eventful than ours. No early morning runs to PetSmart for any door buster specials. As a matter of fact, we spent most of the day on the couch. But Mom was pleasantly surprised to find that the check from winning the BigDog.com Howl-o-ween Photo Contest had arrived via snail mail, so we hit the computer for a little online Black Friday shopping.

After checking out some of our favorite shopping spots and then comparison price shopping via Shopzilla, we ended up at Five Star Fido and purchased two new Chocolate Cuddle Soft Lounges to replace our dilapidated Fido Fleece beds. Don't worry. The bed is not made of chocolate. Mom knows that chocolate is not safe for dogs. Chocolate is the color of the beds -- at least for the time being -- until they become covered in drool and dog hair. Daddy Dawg is particularly happy about the  removable, machine-washable cover which will make his weekly house cleaning chores much easier.
