We were happy to introduce our brands and products tomore boutique owners and buyers. We are working hard for a successful year of 2012 and beyond! :)

Super Zoo 2011 -- Las Vegas
MoJo EventsCommentIt is always good to visit Las Vegas once a while, especially in September, because that is when Super Zoo is on.
This year, Super Zoo was a sold out show. There were still companies on the waiting list trying to get a booth to exhibit. What a booming industry! Lots of people visited our booth, old friends, new faces, and felt like we barely had a moment stop talking for a while. Though the overall economy is still not fully recovered yet, but we noticed quite a few brand new boutique stores are opening everywhere. Those new store owners are young, ambitious, and full of fresh ideas. We love to see new blood come in and bring fresh concepts and ideas to this industry. And hopefully they will bring more great products and services to the customers and their pups! What a great show it was! Fun, exciting, and inspiring!
So long, Vegas, for now. We will be back next year this time again. Till then, enjoy life and stay well!
California Gift Show (July 22 - 25, 2011)
MoJo EventsCommentThis summer we attended our very first non-pet show: California Gift Show in Los Angeles. It is a very different experience for us and we have made many new friends. It is specially happy for us to see some familiar faces when we were there.
Since this is a non-pet show, buyers are from all kind of different fields. 7 out of 10 buyers walked into our booth and thought all these clothes are made for human babies and kids. When they were told these are for the pups, they all laughed and amazed. We took that as a compliment every time. :)
Spring Trunk Show @ The Modern Dog, Venice, CA
MoJo EventsCommentStrut Your Mutt - Los Angeles - Sept. 19, 2010
MoJo EventsCommentAt the very core of all the work of Best Friends Animal Society is the dream that one day kindness will replace cruelty, and animals will no longer be destroyed because they are unwanted or imperfect. Spaying and neutering will become commonplace, and adoption will be the first choice for everyone. Shelters will have the knowledge and resources to help rehabilitate special-needs animals and find the right family for every animal. Making this dream a reality is the mission they call No More Homeless Pets®.
More than five million beautiful, healthy animals are euthanized in shelters every year. Supporting the fundraising efforts for Best Friends is one way we can help to change that tragic reality. Mochi & Jolie Dog Pack walked on 9-19-2010 to support Best Friends Animal Society's Los Angeles programs. We had such a fun time walking in Santa Monica in the early morning. Take a look some of the photos. :)
