Under the blanket...


The other day I happened upon a blog titled 'Under the blanket' that published a wonderful entry featuring JoeysCoat.  Delighted with the kind "shout out" I wanted to learn more about it. Turns out that the blog is a facet of the company, BlanketID; a company whose inspiration was brought about by visits to animal rescue's and shelter's, in search of a "special friend" to adopt.  

In their words:       

"We were touched by what we had seen, and a big idea took shape; an ID tag that would hold details online and never be out of date, together with a simple system that could immediately alert shelters, pounds, animal control, SPCA and any other local members with details and a photo of a missing pet.
Then, we made it even better; we added tools to print your own lost posters and flyers, GPS mapping of where pets were reported found and even the option to report your pet as Stolen (it happens more often than you think!).
Then we put the idea to work. By adding a small annual fee to the tag (less than $1 per month), we created a way for everyone to give a little back. We even provide a way for our members to choose which organization they would like their support to go to.
Thanks to our fantastic members, over the last three years we have been able to help over 100 organizations that make the world a better place."

Layla in Northern Lights...

I am delighted to share this photo of Layla from Virginia, a nearly two year old Frenchy, wearing 'Northern Lights'.  
As every dog owner knows, each pup is unique, no two are alike.  The same goes for JoeysCoat.      



A one-of-a-kind for a one-of-a-kind!


Seattle Humane Society - Tuxes & Tails...

Founded in 1897, the Seattle Humane Society was the first humane organization formed to serve King County in Washington State. Today, SHS remains true to the original mission - to speak out for those who cannot speak for themselves and to bring people and pets together. Both animals and people alike benefit greatly from the important work they do. It happens through companionship . . .
All healthy and adoptable companion animals who come through Seattle Humane Society's doors are given as long as it takes to find them a home of their own, regardless of age, beauty or infirmity.  In addition to providing medical care and treatment needed, Spay and Neuter services, vaccinations and microchip placement, Seattle Humane Society services include a pet food bank, a visiting pet program, and an animal adventure camp for kids.  
The long and short of it - they help pets and the people who love them. 
JoeysCoat is honored to support the Seattle Humane Society's life-saving work for homeless pets by donating 'Mourning Matthew' - Couture Dog Coat by JoeysCoat - to the 25th Annual Tuxes & Tails Silver Anniversary Gala on May 10, 2014 at the Hyatt Regency Bellevue.
