One of our favorite, sassy little corgis, Margot, is turning 3 on February 19th! Now that she has a favorite dog bar in town, she’s demanding a celebration for all her bffs and their humans, and any Down Dog regulars! If you haven’t had the pleasure of meeting Margot yet, still come on by! Margot loves meeting new friends, and would love more Corgis to come for a meet up!
In addition to celebrating this amazing pup, Fi-Dough Treat Company is cooking up some special treats for Margot and friends to share!
The Southeast Corgi Rescue from which Margot, and her siblings, Dax and Macy, were rescued from will have a table with information and will be taking donations in honor of Margot. The Southeast Corgi Rescue is a non-profit, all-volunteer group of dog lovers serving the states of NC, SC and GA, working specifically with corgis and corgi mixes.
