Dogs belong on the furniture…

That’s right; Dogs look great on pillows, upholstery, beds and even window treatments.

There’s no better way to personalize your home and reflect your interest in Dogs, than by adding a touch of Canine inspired fabric to your next decorating project.

This week, Fabric Designer Jane Walker and I discuss the art of Canine inspired fabrics on Decorating Tails, the Pet Friendly Decorating Podcast on Pet Life Radio.

I hope you’ll tune in and join us!
