Doggy Primary in Virginia

Yesterday, Organic Doggy Kitchen held a unique event called Virgnia Doggy Primary at Nature's Nibbles yesterday. It was soooo much fun! Capitol Dog Bakery's Political Dog Biscuits come in the shape of elephants and donkeys, and they are the exact same Peanut Butter & Honey flavor, but we found out recently that our dogs have preferences... So we invited our local canine residents to come to Nature's Nibbles in Alexandria, and asked them to choose donkeys or elephants.

And many dogs walked in to just vote! One person walked in without a dog and told us he is casting an absentee vote on behalf of his dog. We also had one out-of-state canine voter who drove over 1 hour to just vote. But we decided to let him become an honorary Virginia canine resident and welcomed him to vote, too :)

We had a total of 24 votes. The result is - local doggies support Donkey Biscuits -10 elephants and 14 donkeys! People asked me if we put more peanut butter in donkey biscuits, but no, they are the very same recipe!

We also made little doggy cupcakes as a special treat for responsible canine citizen who voted. Lee and Donna from
Anderson Photography joined and raffled for a free pet photo session, and it was a huge success! You can check out Lee's photos beautiful canine photos on his website.
