Bigwag Yappy Hour & $5 Friday
Hope this e-mail finds you well. We have just the thing to brighten up this dreary Tuesday. YAPPY HOUR! Tonight's Yappy Hour is Girl's Night. We have free cosmo treats for the dogs, 25% OFF all girl's clothing and you can register to win a One Day Get Away from Angel Pet Sitters!
Next Tuesday, September 29th, is Sam's Birthday. We'll have cake for all dogs. Also, Sam asks that in lieu of gifts you bring a donation for the needy animals at the Humane Society (Sam says he has everything he could ask for!) So here are some things they could use:
Laundry Soap (they prefer liquid but will take any)
Pine Sol
Bleach
Cat/Dog Carriers
Wal-Mart gift cards for gas
Lowe's gift cards
Dish soap
Paper towels
Trash bags
Triple Antibio tic Ointment
Peroxide
Rubbing Alcohol
Used Golf Cart to go between dog park, shelter and proposed shelter
Of course, they will also take monetary donations, they need money to build a new shelter and they are completely dependent on your donations!
In an attempt to keep from cluttering your inbox, I'm also sending out the upcoming $5 Friday for September 25th. All of our Fresh Pet Shampoos & Conditioners will be just $5 this Friday. We have flea and tick, oatmeal and medicated shampoos!
We Look Forward to seeing You!

Bigwag Dog Bakery Friday Update
Happy Friday!
Today's $5 Friday specials are some of my favorite products - our Crypton Cleaners. I am a huge fan of the Crypton Stain Remover for Dogs. It's all natural and has removed spots from my carpet that were there before I moved in! Plus it smells great while doing it. We're also offering the Crypton Disinfectant & Deoderizer for $5! These products are regularly $8-$9, so this is a great savings!
Also, Julie Jarret ask me to pass on this information the next time I put out a newsletter: New Pet Loss group forming - This group will be to support one another through the death of a beloved pet. Whether it be a cat, dog, horse, or any other pet, everyone is welcome. All that I ask is that we be respectful of each other and make no judgments on each other&rsqu o;s beliefs. Everyone experiences grief differently and has different spiritual views. There is no right or wrong, just support. For more information contact Julie Jarrett at 644-9016 or paws4me@cox.net
Remember, Take Your Dog to Dickson is tomorrow from 1pm-5pm and the Candlelight Vigil for Homeless Animals is tomorrow from 7pm-9:30pm at Murphy Dog Park.
Have a fantastic weekend,

Bigwag Dog Bakery July Newsletter
Hello Everyone!
I realize it's not quite July yet, but I thought I'd send this one out a little early in light of the upcoming holiday.
Clothing and Beds and Birthdays, Oh My!
If you haven't been in the store in the last week, you're in for a surprise! We have added clothing and beds to the products we carry. We are excited to bring you these new items, as many of you have been asking for clothing since Woof! Woof! closed. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised at how affordable our clothing lines are, so stop by and check out the range of cute tees, lovely dresses and handsome button downs. We even have swim suits and life jackets! And we have a great variety of unique beds including cooling beds for dogs that'll keep them cool in this heat!
We are beyond excited to announce that our 3rd Birthday party will be held Saturday, July 25th from 9am to 12pm. It will be a "pool party" theme with plenty of water to keep everyone a little cooler this year. We will be giving goody bags to the first 100 guests. There will also be free food, Northwest Arkansas Animal Rescue will be providing low cost micro-chipping, there will be contests and prizes and much more!
Year of FREE TREATS
We will also be giving away a Year of Free Treats at our birthday party. In the past we gave away the Year of Free Treats through random drawing, but this year we're changing it up. We're asking you to tell us why you or your dog love Bigwag. Share your best story and you could win the prize! You can enter online by visiting http://www.contest.bigwag.com/ or you can e-mail your story directly to us at sales@bigwag.com. You may also enter in person at the store. All entries must be received by 7pm Saturday, July 18, 2009. Then we'll have the best 10 stories on display and you get to vote for your favorite. Along with winning the Year of Free Treats, the best story will be published in the Rogers Morning News. The 9 runners up will receive a pound of treats of their choice.
Yappy Hour
Just because we're preparing for our birthday doesn't mean we're going to forget Yappy Hour! Don't forget to stop by between 5pm and 7pm on Tuesdays for these great specials:
Tonight! June 30th - Patriotic Pup Parade. Celebrate the U.S.A. with your D O G! Bring your dog in his best patriotic wear. The most festive dog wins a gift basket. Plus, 50% off patriotic treats.

July 21st - Doggie Sno-Cone Night. Stop by with your dog for a cool treat. We'll have free sno-cones for every dog and person.

Bigwag Dog Bakery June Newsletter
I can't believe we're already into the 6th month of 2009. Blink and your life just flies by. The end of July we'll celebrate 3 years of being in business already! Which brings me to a very important question. In the past we have typically held our birthday party in the middle of the day, but it's always sooo HOT. We'd like to change the time to combat the heat. My question to you- (PLEASE reply to sales@bigwag.com with your opinions) Would you rather attend an event earlier on a Saturday morning (think 9am-12pm) or later Saturday evening (6pm-9pm)?
As it begins to get hotter, the events thin out, but for the time being we still have lots of dog friendly events to tell you about. Remember you can always check out the most up to date information we have at
http://www.calendar.bigwag.com/ You can even submit dog friendly events that you know about on the page! Or follow us on twitter, http://www.twitter.com/BigwagDogBakery for up to the minute updates and specials.
New Hours at Bigwag
Our biggest news this month is we have changed our hours! We are now opening at 9am to better serve all you early birds. We're running an early bird special for the entire month of June. Come in before 10am and you get 20% off your purchase.
Yappy Hour
Yappy is still going strong every Tuesday from 5pm-7pm here at Bigwag. We have different specials each week, so be sure to stop by to take part in the fun. June's Yappy Hour Specials are:
June 9th - Ice Cream Social. Is there anything better than ice cream in the summer? How about free ice cream for you and your dog plus buy 2 get 1 free ice cream treats!
June 16th - Kitty Pity Party. While we're a dog bakery, we love all animals. And we do have a kitty corner for your feline friends. This Yappy Hour we're introducing new toys and treats for the kitties, plus you get 25% off anything in the kitty corner.
June 23rd - Father's Day. We celebrated dog "moms" last month, so of course we have to celebrate the guys who aren't afraid to pick up slobbery balls or wrestle! All dog "dads" get free tie treats tonight.
June 30th - Patriotic Pup Parade. Celebrate the U.S.A. with your D O G! Bring your dog in his best patriotic wear. The most festive dog wins a gift basket. Plus, 50% off patriotic treats.
Thanks to everyone who donated to the Humane Society at our Puppy Shower Yappy Hour. We filled the back of my pick-up with much needed supplies. You can check out th e pictures at http://bigwag.blogspot.com/2009/05/pictures-from-puppy-shower-for-humane.html

First, a few thank yous and updates on events that happened in April. Thanks to everyone who came out for Murphy Dog Park's Annual Bunny Hop! We had a fantastic turn out, the dogs had a great time hunting Easter Eggs and over $1000 was raised to support the park. Check out pictures by going to http://bigwag.blogspot.com/2009/04/pictures-from-2009-bunny-hop.html. Thanks also to all the vendors and participants that stuck it out in the rain at the first annual NWA Skyhoundz Event. The dogs were impressive and Matt already has his sights set on a bigger, better event for next year. Finally, thank you to all the volunteers from NWAAR, especially Dr. Harper and Angie, and all the participants in the Micro-chipping clinic. We vaccinated or microchipped 71 dogs and 6 cats between 10am and 2:30pm on Saturday April 18th! That's a lot of money raised for a great rescue and a lot of dogs who can now find their way home!
Summer Hours at the Humane Society

Bigwag Dog Bakery April Newsletter
Happy April Everyone!
Its hard to believe that spring is already here, especially when the weather doesn't stay spring-like for more than a few days at time. But, we're quickly approaching Easter and with it a plethora of events that are great to attend with your favorite canine friend.
Murphy Dog Park's Annual Bunny Hop
The first great event this spring happens this Saturday, April 4th from 1pm-4pm at Murphy Dog Park (in Rogers at the corner of 1st Street and Nursery Rd.) This fantastic annual event features a bonnet contest, a tail wagging contest, a silent auction and of course an Easter Egg hunt complete with eggs stuffed with Bigwag treats! The cost is $5 per dog, with all proceeds going to benefit Murphy Dog Park. You can pre-register at Bigwag Dog Bakery or you may register at the gate the day of the event.
NWA Local Skyhoundz Event
Another event that is sure to be exciting is Northwest Arkansas' fi rst ever disc-dog competition series. Set for April 18th at 1pm at the old Tiger Stadium in Bentonville, this event is free to competitors and spectators alike. Stop by to see some amazing action and visit vendor booths.
Micro-Chipping Clinic
On April 18th Bigwag Dog Bakery is happy to announce that we're hosting Northwest Arkansas Animal Rescue's low cost micro-chipping ang rabies clinic at our store. The event kicks off National Pet ID week and is not only a great way to help out a wonderful rescue organization, but also a great way to help your pets find their way home should they ever become lost.
Spring Frontline Special
As we get into spring, the bugs come back and that means Fleas and Ticks. We are excited to offer our customers a special deal to keep those little buggers away. For the next week, from now until the close of business on Saturday, April 11th, we will be offering a pre-order special on Frontli ne Plus. If you order between now and then, you will get our wholesale prices. You simply order and pay online or in our store before close of business April 11th and you will get Frontline at our wholesale cost. Then when our order comes in, which we expect to be about April 20th, you pick up your Frontline Plus! On average you save $6.50 a box. We do ask that you limit yourself to 3 boxes. These prices apply only to pre-orders, they do not apply to products in our store. We want to reward you for planning ahead!
Yappy Hour at Bigwag
Yappy Hour continues to be great fun every Tuesday at Bigwag from 5pm to 7pm. Most recently we hosted a great group of volunteers who stuffed eggs for Saturday's Bunny Hop. Check out the pictures on our blog at http://bigwag.blogspot.com/2009/04/egg-stuffing-party.html. We also had a fantastic March Madness Yappy Hour this past month (the dog's predicted Memphis would win - guess dogs are no better at picking brackets than the rest of us!) And we had a wonderful St. Patrick's Day Party complete with Doggie Beer.
We have lots of upcoming Yappy Hour Specials as well, so for those of you who haven't made it by yet, come by Tuesdays between 5pm and 7pm and check out these upcoming specials:
April 7th - Easter Eggstravaganza. We'll have eggs everywhere. Your dog gets to pick one out. Every egg is a winner! If your dog is really lucky, you could win a $100 gift certificate.
April 14th - Food & Wine Night. Been wanting to try out our great grain free, natural and holistic foods, but not sure which your dog will prefer? Come by tonight for free samples paired with Fine Canine Wines sure to tickle your dog's delicate pallette.
April 21st - Meet and Greet with Denise Homes, Plus Earth Day! Denise is a local dog trainer who recently released CD speciall y designed to introduce your fur baby to your new child. She'll be in our store to answer your questions about dog training. Plus, we'll be having an Early Earth Day Celebration - 25% off all our green products and get $2.00 off your treat purchase when you bring in your reusable green tote!
April 28th - Bath Time! No, we won't be bathing dogs, but we will have Melvin & Viviana of Aussie Pet Mobile Northwest Arkansas at our store. They'll be introducing their mobile grooming salon and giving demonstrations. Plus they'll have $10 coupons for grooming and all Bigwag spa products will be 25% off!
