Dog Days of Summer - Ice Cream Social at Canine Creature Comforts     What is more refreshing on a sultry summer afternoon than an ice cream  sundae made to order with your favorite flavor of real ice cream and fruity  toppings?  Well, if you asked this little guy and the other local pooches that  attended last Saturday's event, they'd all say, paws down, it was great!   Not only were they able to mingle with other fellow four-leggers, but they  were able to bring their humans to this worthwhile, charity affair.    Canine Creature Comforts, owned and operated by Amy Parsons, hosted a  Doggie Ice Cream Social, in conjunction with Bruster's Real Ice Cream, to  benefit the Alliance for Philadelphia's Animals.  The event was held in  Canine Creature Comforts' air conditioned facility at 81 Lancaster Ave.  (intersection of Route 30 and 401) in Malvern, PA.  Bruster's Real Ice  Cream, located at 102 Lancaster Avenue (next to McDonald's) in Malvern,  supplied the specially made "doggie" ice cream sundaes (made with frozen ice milk) and they also provided  traditional ice cream favorites  for the dog owners.  In addition,  there were activities and games  for the canines, including bobbing for hot dogs, making paw  prints, raffles for pampered pooches, and more.  It was a charity  event and a portion of all proceeds from the raffle items, ice  cream sundaes and merchandise sales went to benefit the  Alliance for Philadelphia's Animals.  The Alliance is a coalition of  animal welfare and animal rescue groups who are working to  control and care for the population of Philadelphia's animals  through pet adoption programs and spay-neuter initiatives.  This  gathering was designed to bring a community of dog lovers and  owners together to benefit a worthy cause - Philadelphia's  homeless animals.  Canine Creature Comforts opened this past May and is a 15,000  square foot indoor facility..yes you heard right - 15,000 square  feet that rivals any big-name pet care facility on the Main Line.   They provide doggie daycare, training, grooming and a boutique  that would make Gucci green with envy, offering a full line of K-9  products ranging from Glamour Dog tote bags, Aromatherapy Spritzers to Sleigh Beds for your favorite  pooch!  Whoever said, "...it's a dog's life..." wasn't just whistling Dixie.  Canine Creature Comforts is doggie  heaven right here in Malvern.  What was most noticeable and commendable at this event, was the fastidious  cleanliness of the hosts and their entourage; if per chance any of the guests (of the K-9 persuasion) had a  slight accident, and who wouldn't with all that excitement going on, the staff was right there to make things  clean and sanitary. This reporter has to add that any pet lover having a  K-9 family member should definitely check out this  fully functional, well stocked and appointed facility at  their earliest convenience.  Fido will thank you for it!      (As of this posting, Canine Creature Comforts is still going strong - kudos to Amy!) © Copyright 2011, MainLineBiz.com.  All rights reserved.   Read Site Terms Read Disclaimer Request Form Read or Post Blog ...makes cruisin’ The Main Line easier!
