Happy 2008!
Ernie wanted us to remind ya that with all of the snow and crazy weather out there, Rita is set and ready to help keep your furry friend(s) happy n’ clean! Stop in for a grooming session and leave with one uber-happy pooch!
See ya soon,
Ernie (& the folks at Crate Escape)
Hey Crate Escapers–
We’re excited to let you know that all of our full-time staff members are now trained in pet CPR and first aid! You can consider you pooch safe with us 
In other news, we’ve installed a really cool rubber floor made of recycled tires! It’s treated with a non toxic sealant, perfect for poochie paws. The floors have definitely made for a safer environment, providing our dogs with better footing and it seems they’re all running with a bit more pep in their steps! We humans love it too ’cause it helps reduce noise reflection from barking n’ stuff
Hope to see ya soon! And don’t forget to mark your calendar for next Saturday, October 20th…it’s DOGTOBERFEST!
Mark your calendars for our First Annual Dogtoberfest! Join us for an afternoon of fun ‘n games, goodies, and a chance to meet our new groomer, Rita Silva! We’ll have contests: Best Costume, Loudest Bark, Dog/Owner Look-a-Like…and tons of prizes. So grab your lovable pooch and come on down!

NEW FLOORS
One last thing….soon we’ll be adding new rubber flooring at the warehouse. We figured your pup would appreciate the extra bit of comfort and safety. Come take a romp and tell us whatcha think!
Hey kids!
Just wanted to letcha know what’s been goin’ on at the Crate this summer! Ernie and Emmitt had a great 4th of July vacationing in Maine and will be there for the rest of the month, getting some much needed R & R after a very busy spring, taking long walks on the beach…But they can’t wait to get back home to help with plans for our new location. New location? Yep! We’re hoping to have a new spot up and ready in Somerville sometime this fall. We’ll keep ya posted!
And if you haven’t been by Crate recently, you may not know about our new pen for small dogs. Now dogs of ALL sizes can hang at the Crate! Toy breeds, small canines, and, of course, the big guys. Stop by for a peek!
And while you’re there, make sure to say hello to our new manager, Cheryl Richard. She’ll be taking over for Mira at the end of July. Mira is getting married (congratulations!!) and moving on to other things. We’ll miss her, but we have a feeling Cheryl will keep things running smoothly for all of us dogs and humans alike.
Wow! So much goin’ on these days! We hope you’ve been having an awesome summer too. Drop us a line and let us know what’s new with you!
