    All little comrades deserve a name day celebration. Bingo contests, tail-wagging races, paw-print souvenier stations, and doggy treat bags, along with photo stations are all part of the package. We can help you select and book a location, order what you need, and make sure it’s all there when you are. A party planning meeting only takes 30-45 minutes and costs $50, plus any cost of intended favors or booking location.

  • "Ball. Ball. Ball. Ball."

    Selkie, littlest comrade, age 2 (terrier poodle mix)

  • "I am now prepared to bite every member of the Supreme Court. Thank you Karl Barx."
