Dog Paper
Big plans are a’comin’ for more doggie designs at RiverDog Prints. I mean, really, D-O-G is in the title, right? The photo card designs will remain, but we’re moving into more stationery and paper goods for dog lovers. We have plans for cats too, but dogs first (as it should be.) And I say “we” because that’s my handsome head in the logo, right?
Remember the Doggie Valentine?
For spring, the Little Brown Dog braves the weather in style:
I’m pushing for more brown dog designs. I think we should make it a series – woof!
For keeping in touch with your doggie friends:
And a fun design that’s not just for spring:
We’ll do other dog illustrations, for sure, and other colors/patterns, like yellow and black and spotted. We love suggestions, so if you’re looking for something doggie in paper, let us know! We’re even creating a moving announcement, doggie-style.
But I’m remaining partial to the little brown dog. You would expect nothing less from this brown dog, right?

December Holiday Giveaway
Hello & Woof! RiverDog Prints is still in the holiday spirit and it’s Week #3 of the special giveaway featuring a Rope Toy from Teeny’s Friends, along with a set of our new Dog Stationery.
If you haven’t read about Teeny’s Friends before, we met Teeny and Katy through our support of the Pet Postcard Project in September. We discovered that they run an organization that supplies needy dogs with toys. Located in Austin, Texas, Teeny’s Friends coordinates various toy drives and sells its own colorful rope toy, pictured above & part of our giveaway. With each sale of the toy, their organization donates another rope toy to a dog in need.
I’ve really had it easy compared to shelter and rescue dogs. My friend Teeny (short for Marteeny) was an abused dog. Katy adopted him and nursed him back to health. She enjoyed the simple pleasure that Teeny experienced playing with his toys. Katy decided to throw him a “birthday party” and ask the guests to bring a toy for a needy dog and Teeny’s Friends was born.
For the past two Wednesdays, we’ve posted a giveaway for one of Teeny’s Friends’ Rope Toys and one set of original Dog Stationery. This Wednesday is no different. Please leave a comment below to enter and we’ll announce the 3rd week’s winner next Tuesday!
Below is our D-O-G Stationery. Take a look… and good luck!
