$166,000 ain’t nothing to poo-poo, and that’s what was raised at this year’s 11th annual San Francisco Doggone Fun Run benefiting PAWS and the SFSPCA. Thanks to everyone who participated, once again proving strength in numbers. We at Paco Collars are always up for helping out with a good cause and so, for this event, […]
It’s tradition here at Paco Collars to name new collar designs after the dogs that inspire them. It’s our simple way of giving props to the ones who deserve it.

Okay, maybe we should be more specific. Seriously, though, this is your chance to show off your work and support a good cause. Here are the details. . . Official call for submissions: Bad Rap (www.badrap.org) and the Living Room Gallery (www.thelivingroomgallery.com) are proud to announce: “Tuff Love: a Celebration of Pit Bulls Through Art” […]
