Small Dog “Face of Wiggle-Buttz”

Haute Couture

Halloween Costumes

Last month, I went to an open casting call, in Marlton, New Jersey to try to become the new “face of Wiggle-Buttz” and I won the small dog category.  Wiggle-Buttz is a new High end Spa and Boutique.  The casting call was covered by the Courier Post Newspaper and it was a fun day.   You can see some of the other dogs on the Courier Post web site, here.  One of the prizes that I won, was a beautiful Pink Dog collar with Pearls and Swarovski Crystals, from their boutique.

Spa and Boutique

Wiggle-Buttz is located in the Kings Grant Shopping Center, 125 Merchant Way, Marlton, NJ 08053, 856-267-5198.  You can find them on facebook here.  They are family owned and if you visit ask for Veronica and tell her Dolly sent you.   As stated on their website, “Veronica is an avid animal advocate who volunteers her time at Burlington County AnimalAlliance, and often fosters animals awaiting adoption. She believes that all animals deserve a loving home, and supports shelter adoption by showcasing rescue dogs that are available for adoption in her boutique”.  She is also very nice.  I think we’re a perfect team since I just completed a 6 month fund raiser for the Cumberland County SPCA as a “Dog of the Year” candidate.   We share a common interest to help the other animals.  They have all kinds of natural, organic, gourmet treats and dog food, as well as beautiful clothing for that special companion in your life. In the Boutique you can find, Fashion such as Louis Vuitton, Juicy Couture, Yves Saint Laurent, Chanel and others.  They also offer facials, paw-di-cures, massages, hair color treatments, and spa packages, at their facilities.

My “D” and I went for a photo shoot a few weeks ago and it was really special.  The photographer and I had a fun time, while modeling all of the nice clothing available in the Boutique.  My Co-winner, Johnny Cash was also there on the day of the photo shoot and represented the larger dogs.

My D was so proud of me and was all smiles because of how well behaved I was, hamming it up for the cameras.  It was so exciting and now the photos are in and I wanted to share a few of them with my fans.  Please stop by and check out this new Boutique and Spa for that special animal in your life, and don’t forget to tell them “Dolly sent you”.

A Day at the Spa

Wiggle Buttz, Marlton, New Jersey

I must say life as a Yorkie, at times, can be just fantastic.  My “D” takes me to all the best places and gives me all the nicest things.  Several weeks ago I entered a casting call at a new high end pet spa and store that opened in Marlton New Jersey, called Wiggle Buttz.  I was so excited to then be chosen, from that casting call, to be the new “Face of Wiggle Buttz”. What that means is I will be on their website and in their advertising and literature.  As a reward for being selected, I also received several prizes, i.e. some merchandise and a Spa Day.
They have some very nice facilities and some very nice dog treats, toys, clothes and accessories from all the top designers, like Louis Vuitton, Juicy Couture, Yves Saint Laurent and others.  I haven’t decided yet about my prize, because they have so many nice things.  At first I thought I liked the Louis Vuitton sneakers, but then I saw this beautiful Pink Suede Collar with Swarovski Crystals and White Pearls, what’s a girl going to do? I will decide on Tuesday when I go for my photo shoot, who knows I might like something that I will model for them.

My “D” and I started out early in the morning to make my Spa appointment on time.  Sundays at the Spa are by appointment only.  Wiggle Buttz is located at 125 Merchants Way, Marlton New Jersey 08053 (856-267-5198).  It was a nice ride on a cool morning. I wore one of my chic pink sweaters so I would make an impression. When we arrived, Veronica, the store owner, spied me right away and came out to greet me.  She introduced me to Gabby, who was to be my groomer today and also her mother, who happened to be in the store this morning.  She told me I was going to get their “Princess Package” which includes a full day of relaxation. Starting off with a bath, teeth cleaning and nail grinding, followed by a Blueberry Facial and a Paw-di-Cure, which includes getting my nails painted. To finish the spa day right I will be 'pampered' with a 30 minute massage and be sent home with a complimentary Spa Robe.  WOW!  I really did feel like a princess.

Gabby and I

My Spa experience started off, with a stop at the reception desk, where I signed in and was acquainted with the very nice facility, full of state of the art grooming tools and supplies. Everything was decorated for Halloween, my favorite time of year.

Gabby made me feel very welcome and talked to me calmly while I was getting used to a new environment.  

Private Room

One thing that I thought was special was the private room, for their clients that wanted a nice facility to bath their animals, on their own, a kind of "do it yourself" room.  This would be nice for animals that don't like strangers giving them a bath.  

 

My treatment started off with a little prep, some ear cleaning and a bit of a trim around my "Hoo Haa" parts.  Gabby was very gental, but I did protest slightly, only because I was in a strange place. She kept calming me with her voice and eventually I settled in.

Checking out the facilities

We next moved into the was room where, I waited patiently, for my bath to be prepared.  I noticed all the nice shampoo's and conditioners on the shelf.   I have hair like a human and it needs to be soft and silky.  They had the right stuff.  I told Gabby that I like my water, tepid and she made sure it was the right temperature.  After a wet down, we started with my Blueberry facial, then moved on to a nice shampoo and rinse, followed by a Paw-di-cure soak for my tired paws and dry pads.

About to get my Blueberry facial

On to a blow dry.  The spa has several ways to get dry, I didn't like the blow dryer, because it frightened me, so they offer alternative facilities in a nice cage with a gentle air dryer.  I still fussed a little but was not as frighten with this method of getting dry.

Gabby getting my Tooth brush and paste ready

While I was getting dry, Gabby prepared my special Chicken Toothpaste.  After a nice combing and brushing, Veronica helped Gabby get me into my Spa Robe and I was done.

I recommend that all my friends stop by and take a look at this great new boutique and Spa, Wiggle Buttz and tell them “Dolly sent you”.  Thank you Veronica and Gabby for the nice day of pampering, see you for the Photo Shoot on Tuesday.

What I look like now that I have been in a Happy Home. You votes have helped the other Animals

Look for this at CCSPCA Events

The Fund Raiser was on going since April of this year, throughout South Jersey. The first event was at Parvin State Park on Sunday April 29th.with their Pet Walk.  It was concluded on Saturday September 29, 2012 with the Winning Announcement at 1:00pm during a reception at the Vineland SPCA.   I was sponsored by “Bobs Little SportShop” in Glassboro, New Jersey. 

My photo, as well as my sponsor, was on donation boxes, the CCSPCA website, at 25 of the SPCA Events on a voting stand, Selected Schools in Cumberland County, at their main building in Vineland, NJ, and in their newsletter to over 5000 subscribers. My D and I personally manned and dogged the Donation board at the Buena Independence Day Celebration on July 7, 2012 and also made a personal appearance at some of the other events. The winner will get to be their ‘Dog of the Year”, with their photo on the "Dog of the Year" wall plaque, as well as be in a parade and will receive a $300 gift certificate. I gave all the details of how and where to vote, as well as the locations of the donation boxes, on my social pages, twitter and website as I got them.  This, of course, was a fund raiser and votes were tallied by your donations to the CCSPCA.  The winning Dog was the one who obtained the most donations and 100% of those donation will go to the care of rescue animals.  The CCSPCA had voting links on their website where they accepted your credit cards. A record amount was obtained in excess of $29,000.
