New Shop Dog, New Brands

This past month has been a busy one. Perhaps the first big event was the arrival of Emma, who has become the shop dog. A diminutive four pounds, she's a six-year old "Tea Cup" Yorkie that loves lots of attention and doesn't care who that attention comes from. Emma had belonged to the groomer next door at Oh My Dog but decided to adopt us. After a couple of weeks of staying here and going home with the groomer all parties finally agreed that Emma belonged with us full-time. She joins a 12 year-old Jack Russell and a 6 year-old Mini Australian Shepherd as part of our family.

Besides a new dog, we also added new brands including On Line from Germany, Platinum of Japan, Yafa, and Yoropen to our growing blend of writing instruments. Our long awaited Via Veneto Torsion models arrived from Delta, and they are stunning, as did the wide-bodied Monteverde Mega Ballpoints. And if you haven't looked at Cross lately, check out the Sauvage collection with their sexy profiles and safari themed textures.
