Lucy Weaver's Birthday Party at Sweet Paws Bakery

Lucy celebrated her first birthday at Sweet Paws Bakery with a big party for her and her friends. Here is the birthday girl, Lucy, wearing her pink festive collar. Lucy's brother Willy is laying in the background.


Lucy's party was catered by Sisters which is located in Haile Village Center. The food was delicious. Bacon wrapped cheese stuffed dates, huge shrimp, chicken and ham salad sandwiches were served to all the guests.

There was even a human cake that was decorated with fondant bones and of course a Carob Bone Cake decorated with BBQ bones for the dogs.

Here is some pictures of Lucy's guests enjoying the party.






This is the fun part when Lucy gets to see, smell, and taste her cake. She even nibbled a couple of BBQ bones off before the cake was cut.

After the cake comes the opening of presents. Lucy was a lucky girl everyone was very jealous of her gifts. Some of her gifts were Tator the dog loving Gator, Brown with pink paw print ribbon large towel with a snail toy, and donation made to Haile's Angels made in Lucy's name.





Lucy was very thankful to her mom for throwing such a wonderful party!





Your dog can have a fun party at Sweet Paws Bakery too. Our party package is $29.99 and that includes having the store for your party for 2 hours, a yummy personalized cake, and we do all the set up and clean up.

First Day in New Expanded Store


Today was my first day in Sweet Paws Bakery's expanded location and it was wonderful. Some of my wonderful customers came to visit and explore the new location. The dogs seem to find the wood floors interesting (not able to run as fast on them compared to the carpet). The dogs really enjoyed the open space where they can roam and sniff out their favorite items. Some of the dogs that I enjoyed today: Winnie and Casey (2 Kerry Blue terriers) came in to stock up on Sweet Paws Bakery treats, Amelia (Cocker Spaniel) came to pick up some Dogswell treats, Rusty and Hugo (2 Shih tzu) signed up for Doggie Daycare and Hugo left sporting a new Gators jersey, Phoebe (Boxer puppy) came to pick up her Red Dingo tag and some Dogswell treats, and Buddy, Lucy, and Willy (3 Cocker Spaniels) came in to finalize Lucy's birthday party at Sweet Paws Bakery. I want to say Thank you to all my wonderful customers for making my job so fun. The adorable dogs in the picture to the left is Hugo and Rusty.

Shelly and Marley sporting their Dublin Dog Collars!


I absolutely love Dublin Dog collars! They are waterproof, they won't smell, and they will always look brand new. Dublin Dog collars are the original all style, no stink collar. They are made with a special material that cleans easily and won't smell.

Shelly and Marley came into the store with their new collars and I had to take a picture and blog about it. Alex, their mom, hand picked their collars. Marley (black cocker spaniel) is wearing Spanish Moss and Shelly (tan cocker spaniel) is wearing Merlot. Since I didn't have that design or color in stock she had to wait just a couple days for it to come in. We just received some more Dublin Dog collars this morning so come pick up your dog one of these unique collars. If you don't see one that you like I can always order you one to your liking.

Hank with his new Dog wheelchair!



Right before the 4th of July one of my parent's dogs, Hank, was diagnosed with back leg paralysis. Hank did not seem to care that his back legs were not working. If he wanted to go somewhere he just dragged his back legs. Matt being the handy person he is decided he was going to build Hank a wheelchair.
We had looked into buying Hank a wheelchair; they run around $500. Once Matt saw that price he was determined that he would build Hank one for much less. After some fittings with Hank the wheelchair was perfect.


The wheelchair brings Hank's back slightly higher to make sure his legs do not touch the ground. We don't want any sores from his feet rubbing the ground. The wheelchair hooks up in the front to Hank's harness to make sure the wheelchair can keep up with Hank.


Once Hank was hooked up to his wheelchair he took off down the street. He really seems to like his wheelchair. He goes on long walks with his wheelchair everyday. The wheelchair gave Hank the freedom to move again! My family and I are very thankful to Matt for building Hank his wheelchair.

Scamp loving his LA Dog Car Seat!


Lauren, Scamp's mom, sent me this picture of Scamp on her drive home for Summer break. Scamp looks too adorable in his car seat and his Puppia harness. The car seat is very comfortable! Think of it being a bed for your dog but also makes sure your pooch doesn't go flying when you make a sharp turn or sudden stop.

The car seat is molded to fit the exact shape of your car's seat, this seat allow the seat belt to securely surround the front and buckle on the side, with a clip on the back for extra added stability. The seats are constructed of dense upholstery grade foam with an easily removable and washable cover in a Poly Cotton Twill fabric detailed with a white piping. Just clip the attached strap to your dogs harness and you're off! Another great thing about this car seat is that it is Made in the U.S.A.!

We have one left currently at the store so come snag this great car seat for your pup!

A New Way To Travel With Your Pet!

Many of us think of our pets as part of the family and since they are part of the family we like them to travel with us. Well this summer their is a new way to travel with your pets. Pet Airways is the first pet only airline, where your pet can fly in the comfort of the cabin no matter what size your pet is. How it works is that you drop off your pet at Pet Airways Pet lounge. Then your pet is allowed a potty break before boarding the plane. During the flight a flight attendant checks on your beloved pet every 15 minutes to make sure everything fine. After the flight has landed the pets will then be available to be picked up by its family at the pet lounge. Flights range from $149 to $299. Right now they only travel between 5 cities: New York, Washington D.C., Chicago, Denver, and Los Angeles. They hope to expand to 25 more cities by two years.
Since Gainesville, FL is not near any of the 5 locations that Pet Airways is flying out of I figured I would give you another alternative if you plan on flying with your pet. Air Tran is the least expensive flight for your pet, $69 each way, where you pet can fly in the cabin. They have flights out of Jacksonville, Orlando, and Tampa.
Have fun traveling with your pets this summer, either in a car or plane. Bringing your pet along with your family adds some adventure to your vacation.

Sweet Paws Bakery being eco friendly!


In an effort to be more Eco friendly Sweet Paws Bakery is composting all kitchen waste from making our yummy treats. This means all egg shells, banana peels, strawberry tops, and other left overs from making our delicious treats are being placed in a compost bin. Eventually these kitchen scraps will turn into rich soil that will be used in my vegetable garden.

By composting and recycling, you can reduce the amount of garbage you generate by up to 80%. Composting is fun because at the end you receive this rich soil making your garden look beautiful and less tax dollars are spent on collection and landfills.

Funny Dog Video!

I thought everyone would enjoy this video. http://i41.tinypic.com/11wbyok.jpg It is so cute the dog is looking at the alligator probably saying I am not scared of you. Just as the dog is walking away to show how not scared he is of the alligator the alligator starts to move. Then the dog gets really scared when the alligator is chasing behind him. I know Parker would not like an alligator being attached to him! He doesn't like it one bit when his flexi is dragging on the ground chasing him.
