A Doggone Good Day With Beer

January 30, 2018 Ben

On one of the first warm days after what has been never-ending and cold winter, we got to go outside and take our dog to the dog park (in our case, the Highland Park Dog Run). And thank goodness we got to go out; our little dog has been chomping at the bit after being limited to short walks. The dog park was super muddy, which made it even more fun! Our adventure was your pretty standard with a long classic game fetch; i.e., we throw a ball, and our dog, kind of, brings it back. After forty minutes of… Read the rest

September 7, 2017 Lindsay

Acro-Cats in PittsburghYes, there is a cat circus. And yes, the cat circus is coming to Pittsburgh. This is not the first time the Acro-Cats bus has rolled into Pittsburgh.

Video of Goat vs. Little Lion at Schramm Farms

October 17, 2014 Lindsay

goat eats kid in lion costumeI am not one for watching and sharing animal videos.  But, I will make exceptions … my friend Olga shared this video of her daughter visiting Schramm Farm and meeting the goats.  Olga’s daughter was wearing her lion costume to visit the farm. This goat was a fan of this little lion and Olga happened to be recording their encounter.  The little lion is completely fine – a little shocked, but fine.  I am sharing this video with the permission of the parents. Loading Goat got her good! @pogoda13 View on Instagram @-webkit-keyframes"dkaXkpbBxI"{ 0%{opacity:0.5;} 50%{opacity:1;} 100%{opacity:0.5;} } @keyframes"dkaXkpbBxI"{ 0%{opacity:0.5;} 50%{opacity:1;}… Read the rest

A PITSburgh Partnership – The Cotton Factory and Hello Bully

May 29, 2012 Ray

When one hears “dog shirts”, the visual of a small dog gnawing at a tight knit sweater may come to mind, but CottonFactory.com and TeeRex Syndicate had something else planned when they partnered with Hello Bully to promote Pit Bull welfare in the Pittsburgh area. In 2002, before she and her husband founded TeeRex Syndicate and purchased CottonFactory.com, Samantha Ginsburg was the proud owner of two rescue Pit Bulls from Animal friends and four cats. Samantha and Stephen then purchased the CottonFactory.com and founded TeeRex Syndicate, two companies that work together to sell specialty screen printed tee-shirts and clothing. TeeRex… Read the rest
