We have two dogs. Miles, a Miniature Pinscher who is a little man with a big attitude, he is also my shadow. Napa, a Golden Retriever who is MISS personality. Her hobbies consist of- bugging the little dog, digging holes in the backyard, stealing socks, 'boxing' with my husband, and getting her hair 'did' at the doggie spaw. They are my inspiration. I grew up in the suburbs of Dallas, TX. When I graduated from college I got my first job offer in Southern California, working for the government in Animal Services. After a few years, I decided I was ready for a change. I wanted to do something that I loved, and have the flexibility to work from home when we had kids. Animal Outfitters really evolved from a random idea...I was looking online for a few things for my own dogs. Everything looked the same?! I decided to dig a little deeper...and that's when I started finding some treasures. With a few random ideas, and lots of support and help from Nick....Animal Outfitters was up and running, ready to offer pet owners great finds all in one place. http://www.animaloutfittersonline.com/
