A Big “Thank You” is in Order

Linda Brown - Thursday, April 15, 2010
Hello there. My name is Linda Brown, and I am the owner and designer of waggiwear LLC. My company has been a year in the making, and I have a lot of people to thank for their support and generosity along the way.

But first, I have to say an early happy birthday to Katie (April 20th), a sweet little Boston Terrier owned by my friend Janice, who was the inspiration for waggiwear. Last year for her birthday, I wanted to make a collar and leash set for her. It was the first time I ever created one, and I was hooked after that. This is her picture. Isn’t she a doll? Thank you Katie girl.

I hope I don’t forget anyone in my efforts to remember....

Suzanne Cotney, owner of Suzanne’s Crazy for Collars. Thank you my new dear friend, for creating a wonderful e-book that gave me the easy to understand instructions on just how to make a dog collar and leash set for Miss Katie. Suzanne is also a fellow dog collar designer and you can find her wonderful creations on Etsy.

Thank you for all your patience and web design talent
that brought my dream to reality.

To all my friends and family that have been there for me throughout this year,
I thank you, and love you all.

And last, but certainly not least, thank you mom, in heaven, for being by my side and guiding me along this journey. I love you and miss you very much.

So it begins. I look forward to sharing this journey with you.

Linda

My therapy certified 3-legged collie/shepherd has been wearing the Mac collar for a year..along with the matching leash. EVERYBODY asks where we got the set! Now that waggiwear is up and running...it's an opportunity for everyone to have a really cool and classy collar and leash for their dog. They wash beautifully. You won't be disappointed and will want to take your dog for more walks!! Thanks Linda for your vision.
