Daisy Ann was an American Border Collie whose job was to meet and greet guests and clients. Her canine duties included but were not limited to meeting Fed Ex and UPS delivery men. Daisy was always ready to accommodate anyone willing to throw a ball. We loved her deeply.

Sophie Rose our sassy and silly, three year old terrior mix joined the Artful Family in March of 2007. She is still in training, for she had very large shoes to fill, but she has won our hearts with her antics and personality. Instead of meet & greet duties, Sophie has decided her forte is as an alert dog, making sure that we're aware when someone enters the store.
