BAD DOG CONTEST

“BAD DOG!” Do you find yourself saying that far too often?

While we spend the majority of our time boasting of epic greatness in our dogs, it’s the story of truly bad dogs that give us reason to paws (HA! Get it?) and consider how to help them overcome their complete and utter BADNESS.

Does your BAD DOG outrank all others? Let your friends and social media community be the judge. We’re hosting our FIRST ANNUAL SAN GABRIEL VALLEY BAD DOG CONTEST!
