Roger Caras said "Dogs are not our whole life but they make our lives whole." He was wrong. When you live with four, obedience train two, agility train two and co-own a dog boutique:(GollyGear); dogs are your life. And life is good.

When a Good Toy Goes Bad...
Ceilidh loves her Rope Turtle. She's waiting for me to toss it. Don't see the turtle there? It used to look like a turtle. And that's what happens to rope toys. After a while they bear absolutely no resemblance to the figure they used to be. But Ceilidh still loves it. She loves chasing it. She loves shaking it. She loves chewing on it. Every once in a while some little strings come off. We get to them before Ceilidh or one of her siblings does, and throw them out. And the turtle gets smaller and more raggedy. And Ceilidh stil loves it. - Fran
Hope and Fran are sisters and owners of GollyGear - a shop specializing in fun, affordable, and practical products especially for small dogs.
We believe that dogs are wonderful companions and their presence enriches our lives. We also know how difficult it can be to find appropriate "gear" for our small dogs, which is why we founded Golly Gear. We make it a point to discover the best products for small dogs and share them with other, devoted dog lovers.
Fran has two dogs: Tango, a 5-year-old Brussels Griffon who got off to a bit of a rough start, but is rapidly becoming a wonderful companion and agility dog, with his Masters Standard and Novice Jumpers titles, and Booker, 2-year-old Boston Terrier just starting his adventure. Hope has Teddy a 4-year-old fawn Frenchie with attitude and Open Standard and Jumpers titles; and Torque, a brand-new Frenchie baby.
Golly Gear is named for Fran's Brussels Griffon, Golly - who was a discriminating judge of all things dog throughout her life.
