District Dog
This weekend I finally got around to checking out a new store here in Greenpoint: Brooklynski. And when I did, I made another nifty discovery: District Dog. Amused by some cool dog toys I saw in the window, I went inside to take a look.
The gentleman behind the counter and the young woman to the right are the co-owners of District Dog. They were still tired from pulling an all-nighter Friday. (The store had its grand opening the next day, Saturday, May, 12th.)
I was pleased to see that they had a wide assortment of poo bags and stylish poo bag holders for sale.
Snazzy leashes and cool collars were in the offering as well.
I spoke briefly with the proprietress of this store and she told me that on top of being a local pet supply (they offer cat food as well) and doggie spa, District Dog was also interested in hosting a doggie adoption day every weekend. I for one think this is a wonderful idea.

These booties came with a matching sweater. I wish they had them in “big kids” sizes ‘cuz I really dig these socks.
Unlike Greenpoint (especially of late), this store smells really, really good.
