The Highlands Street Fair was AWESOME!

The Highlands Street Fair 2011 was a blast!  This event gets better every year which is why we were so happy to help our friends down the road at Out-U-Go! Denver host an awesome booth.

Thousands of local residents toured 32nd Street in the Highlands to visit with a lot of the businesses from the area.  The Out-U-Go! booth was very popular- hundreds of people enter our raffle to win free dogs!

We’re already looking forward to next year!

Stay tuned for information about Out-U-Go!’s next awesome event- DOGA for Charity :)

Puppy Patience

Mr. Max

Ms. Abbie Gale

It’s been a blast at Out-U-Go! Downers Grove during the past couple of weeks getting to meet and take awesome care of so many little puppies. From cutie pie Abbie Gale to little Mr. Tough Guy Max, we have been saying a lot of “Oh my gosh, your’re so cute and tiny” around here lately.  One thing is for sure, pups younger than one year old are a great test of one’s patience. For example, learning how to walk on a leash comes with walking a couple of steps and laying down for belly rubs or running around crazily all over the place. Another example is learning how to potty outside, which any new pet parent can tell you comes with its fair share of trials and tribulations.

One thing all puppy pet parents should remember when grabbing the SpotBot or picking up pieces of the chewed up remote is, “Patience is a Virtue.” It might take a couple of accidents and mishaps before your pup gets the hang of things, but don’t get discouraged. These little guys and girls may need some extra attention now, but they grow up very fast. Before you know it, you will be at the dog park and your pup will be all grown up, playing with their friends and forgetting all about you!

Doga Anyone?

Out-U-Go! & Boulder’s Natural Animal are once again teaming up to host Boulder’s next awesome outdoor charity event!  Our last event, the Pampered Pooch Spaw Day for Charity, was such a huge success (we raised over $1200!) that we’ve already begun organizing Doga for Charity!  Stay tuned to our Facebook page for the exact date and time, but this awesomely fun and hilarious event will take place this summer outside Boulder’s Natural Animal hospital.

All funds raised will be donated to the Humane Society of Boulder Valley.

Plan on a day of fun in the sun, canine massage, food and drinks and…. DOGA!

Any pup can participate, no matter how long they are able (or not able) to stay in one place :)

The team at Out-U-Go! and Boulder’s Natural Animal are looking forward to keeping everyone posted as more details develop, but based on the level of success we had with the Pampered Pooch Spaw Day, we think you’re in for a treat!!!!

We are thrilled to announce an AWESOME fundraiser for a great cause!  Out-U-Go! and Boulder’s Natural Animal are teaming up to co-host a fun, furry and hilarious event to help raise money for human and pet relief efforts in Japan following the devastating earthquake and tsunami.

With the help of many other local Boulder businesses, Out-U-G0! and Boulder’s Natural Animal are organizing a Pampered Pooch Spaw Day on April 16th, 2011 from 1:00pm – 4:00pm.  This event will take place outside of Boulder’ Natural Animal in South Boulder.

Bring your best, furry friend and come join us for an afternoon of fun times, tasty treats (for humans and pets), doggy massages, doggy pedicures, doggy nail painting, ice cream, food from the grill, music, laughs and an all around dog gone good time.
