Ballard Market 7/23/06

Uneek Treats had another really fun day in Ballard. I always enjoy that market. I love our vendor neighbors like Amy's Solstice Designs with her funky silver rings and large piece coral necklaces, bracelets and earrings in the most beautiful oranges and reds. I got my hand crafted silver and amber earings from Amy to match my handmade crocheted sweater of the same colors by Tresa of Fashions N Moore. As well as Solstice Design earrings. I sport a, one of a kind made for me onyx neclace and earrings by Corrine of Gypsy Beaded Creations. This time our booth was right next to Erin Hansen of Solfok Design with her clean lines and very unique style of rings, necklaces and bracelets made of sterling silver and sometimes copper. We are always looking for a spare moment to share our crafts with each other.

Once I set up along came my first customer, Diego a black and white English Springer Spaniel and his new sister Bella a tri color of the same breed. Bella is too young to have treats (I don't recommend treats under 6 mos.) but Diego is well of age and he enjoyed Beagle Bites the best. Diego is a working dog and he carries the family back pack for the days market buys and when they go on hikes he carries his own water.



































Bella got tired waiting for us to see what treats her brother wanted the most and decided to get a drink and take a quick nap.
















We enjoyed another special visit to our booth from Zeeko a 14 years old lab mix and he is his Mommies boy. He loved the Nut Rolls and we begged to be able to put him on our site. How awesome is Zeeko! As cool as his name. So sweet and look at the love. We think this is a great shot! Moms were so excited to be able to be in the shot and show off their wonderful boy! After meeting him, I definitely know why!











June Bug was the last to come by. June Bug was a rescue and she and her Dad have been togehter for about 5 months now. He works at The Barking Lounge and June Bug gets to go with him to work every day. June Bug is a perfect example of a pup winning the doggy lottery. Her Dad was looking online for a dog. He did not find one that would work, so he went to the Seattle Animal Shelter, she was slated to be put down and he came to her rescue. June Bug was there just waiting for him. She is a love and we could not be more pleased about the happy ending.








































The best friends in the world are waiting to give you a life you never expected. The best life! One where you both win. Good job to all that rescue and for our lives that are saved by our good decisions.
