Style My Pooch Prizes :)

Yesterday we posted about winning the Style My Pooch competition and today our prizes arrived... Super speedy delivery eh! :) We're thrilled with all 5 pieces, they're so adorable!

Everything came wrapped up in some lovely gold tissue paper...

 Buffys dress!
I fell in love with this the moment I saw it on SMP's website and it seems I'm not the only one who adores it, Buffy fell in love the moment I unwrapped it! It's stunning in person, the fur trim is wonderfully soft, the body sits so beautifully and the little ruffled skirt part falls perfectly. So in love with this!

 Raffertys cow hoodie!
 This is almost an inside joke, as we call Rafferty 'Gibby Cow' sometimes (a reference to her pregnancy), so we just had to have this for her! Although Raff isn't one for clothes, this hoodie is so soft and cosy even she couldn't complain. You can't see too well here but there are little silver sparkles in the furry trim on the hood - precious!

The 3 adorable t shirts!
(1. Monroe. 2. Lola. 3. Lily.)
Ahh I love these even more in person than thought I would! The blue t shirt is still my favourite and looks amazing with Monroe's colouring. The red-ish t shirt is a beautiful colour, it's not quite red, not quite shocking pink and Lola works it ;) The lime green is almost neon and has a fab retro/80's/pop art party vibe, it looks so cute on Lily!

Also in the package were 3 cards for SMP...


2 of which had a lovely Chihuahua on! How appropriate?! ;)


Isn't everything super cute!?!

We absolutely adore every single piece and the girls look beautiful in their new clothes, so we want to say an absolutely massive 'thank you!' to Nicola, Tiny and everyone else at Style My Pooch :) 

Sadly the light wasn't on our side this afternoon, but over the next few days we'll be sure to get some pictures up of the girls modelling everything! In the meantime if you see something here you like don't hesitate to order, the 20% discount we mentioned in our last post expires January 10th and we'd hate you to miss out!

Love and licks as ever,
Rio, Jonny, Buffy, Rafferty, Monroe, Lily and Lola.

Style OUR Pooch(es)!

As you may know we're on twitter (@riochanelhilton) and we follow a few great doggy sites/brands, one being @stylemypoochuk! Tiny (the adorable Yorkie and SMP model) and the Style My Pooch team decided to run a fabulous Christmas competition, with the grand prize being £100 worth of their lovely clothes!

We decided to enter and thank our lucky stars we did, because we won!
(Which caused me to dance around my kitchen a little)...


We chose 5 items, a pink gingham dress for Buffy, a black and white cow print hoodie for Rafferty and 3 fabulously cute t shirts (1,2,3) to go between Monroe, Lily and Lola! (I think t shirt 2 is my favourite of the 3). We're all so excited for everything to arrive, I know the girls will love their super special Christmas presents, Buffy especially will enjoy her new 'princess dress' :)

We want to say an extra big 'thank you' to everyone at Style My Pooch and we advise anyone looking for cute clothes to check out their website, blog, twitter account or facebook page!

We'd suggest you to get your orders in quickly too, because Style My Pooch are certainly in the festive spirit, as we're not the only ones getting an extra pressie or 2... To say thank you to everyone who entered the competition they've very kindly arranged a 20% discount on all orders, plus free shipping! Just enter 'STYLISHCHRISTMAS' at the checkout to get your discount ;)
 
Love and licks as ever,
(With extra licks to Tiny!)
Rio, Jonny, Buffy, Rafferty, Monroe, Lily and Lola.

P.S We'll be back soon, not least to show the girls modelling their beautiful new SMP clothes, so be sure to keep an eye out for our 'Style My Pooch Prizes' picture post!

Discover Dogs (Plus Our Ticket Giveaway!)

Discover Dogs is right around the corner now and with that in mind we thought we'd share a little information about the big event and tell you how to get your hands on a pair of complimentary tickets!


Discover Dogs is a huge 2 day annual event run by The Kennel Club and sponsored this year by Royal Canin. At Discover Dogs you can expect to meet over 200 breeds of purebred dogs and their knowledgeable owners, who are waiting to tell you all about their furry friends! You'll learn about not only the look of the each breed, but also about their personalities, any distinctive traits and their needs as a breed.

Discover Dogs isn't just all about the purebred pups though, scruff-ty mutts are more than welcome with events such as the Scruffts Grand Final being held there and the Companion Dog Club Competition!

As well as the purebred meet and greets and the host of shows/competitions and agility demonstrations, there's also the winners display from the Dog Photographer of the Year 2011 competition!

If that still isn't enough for you then you're in luck, the 100+ trade stands should keep you busy for a while ;)

For any more info on what's on at this years Discover Dogs you can check out the list of events and start planning your route around the show!

With only a few days left before the show starts it's time to grab any last minute tickets you might want... We're pleased to say we can offer a little help on that front to one lucky winner, with our giveaway! We're offering 2 complimentary Discover Dogs tickets to you, our lovely readers!


To get your paws on this pair (2) of tickets all you have to do is tweet or RT a link to this post, with the hashtag - #DDTicketsAHWTH and we'll pick a winner! I'll put out a tweet that you can RT to simplify things :)

We'll message the winner Wednesday 9th November, so take to Twitter and RT for your chance to win!

Best of luck to everyone who enters,
Love & licks,
Rio, Jonny, Buffy, Rafferty, Monroe, Lily and Lola.
