Have I told you about my other, other, other, OTHER job? I suppose I haven’t. A few months ago Skookum Dog asked me to shoot for them and I said yes! They are a wonderful (to the exponential power of one million) Seattle based company that makes good and strong gear for dogs! Them and I? Well we’re a match made in heaven! I’ve had so much fun shooting for them and the dogs are wild for Skookum everything, as you can see in this photograph. Farley goes berserkers every time a Skookum box lands on the front porch here. It would be inexplicable except it’s practically a law of physics that good dogs get stoked for good gear.
What do I personally and sincerely have to say about this company (and I should note, I am not being paid to say this)? It’s a total pleasure to work for them, they are down to earth people who design and create with conviction. They love nature. They love dogs. Additionally, it’s immensely wonderful to be part of a business, in my own small way, that is crafting everything in the good old USA — with the exception of their tennis balls, those are made in England. That’s something to be proud of and it’s something to SUPPORT.
All I can say is that your pup, if you have one, is going to need some sausage links in his Christmas stocking this year.
Bow wow.
well, now.
not only are YOU famous [you have been so for quite a while. admit it.] but so are farley and tater!
just checked out the link! i’ve got to get some skookum for zig and pinto!! [and angelo, too. he’s a dog in disguise….]
I have a dog named Pinto too!
Good grief! We have a batch of beans here!
Cut out all the famous stuff. It makes me squirm.
HA!
Pinto needs some sausages. Stat.
Heavens sweetie pie, this is & they are F.A.N.T.A.S.T.I.C! Until the time comes when I have a pup or two of my own, I want one of their Sheepskin Rugs w/Memory Foam for my afternoon naps! Just love seeing that Farley face…XO
Skookum is a really great company. If they weren’t, I would not work for them. 🙂 We have one of the sheepskin beds and I sometimes lay down on it with one of the pups. Pretty cush cush!
My dogs want your dogs’ autographs!
GUFFAW!
Spied both you and Hannah in the video. Cuties.
Right!
How lovely. And of course they asked you…kindred spirits. What a pleasure roaming through their online store, too. Makes me want my own pooch even more. (One day. When I end by the sea.)

PS. Story on its way in a day or two.
Can’t wait!
Obviously I meant “…end UP by the sea.” (“End by the sea” sounds a bit dramatic!)
Ha ha ha! Glad you clarified! HEE HEE!
What excellent timing! I’ve been searching for new gear for my pup! Thanks for the recommendation!
My pleasure!
YEEHAW – FANTASTIC!!
