Dori and Lucy waiting for Andy's Dandys cookies. |
I came across Andy's Dandys dog cookies at my local grocery store. Lucy decided they are the best in the universe and has had one a day since that day long ago.
The problem is that once in awhile I would run out of cookies. What do you do with a broken hearted, cookie-deprived yellow Lab? Not much, except cry with her.
I found the source of Lucy's cookies here in Vermont and ordered them online. I get two months worth at a time now, plus a bag of mini-cookies for Dori when she visits. Oh, Dori loves them!
Lucy gets one large Andy's Dandys every night after supper. |
The first time I ordered them, though, I didn't allow for shipping time, so I added a note to please send them as soon as possible and that I would pay whatever it took to get them here fast. They got here very fast, but for free! And with a wonderful note. We have had an on-going online relationship since then with photos included and tiny gifts now and then. You see in the note below that they even know about Nelly. Nelly ripped open and stole some dog cookies once, so I had to tell them about the excitement that day as Lucy watched helplessly as her kitty stole her cookies.
A lovely note from the staff at Andy's Dandys. |
Andy's Dandys is co-owned by young Andrew Whiteford. Seven Days Vermont wrote an article about him and his inclusive business in 2021 that you can read here. The family is truly inspiring and loving.
A beautiful Christmas cookie that Andy's Dandys sent Lucy. |
All is calm after cookie time. |
This is a bag of very small cookies, Dori's size, that the two dogs get at play time. |
I am getting no reimbursement of any kind from this post. I simply think all dog families should know about these cookies and order them. They are expensive, but I only have Lucy and the two cats. They are my priority.
Our pets deserve the best we can give. And to see them enjoy this treat is your treat. Sounds like the kind of company we could use more of.
ReplyDeleteThat is fun! It is great hearing about great companies. Yeah, small business.
ReplyDeleteAdorable dogs!
ReplyDeleteIf I had a pup I'd order those cookies.
ReplyDeleteHave a woof woof day and week. ♥
Such wonderful cookies for those sweet pups and such a nice company too!
ReplyDeleteNo pups here, but i'll tell the children, two of them have dogs and quality treats are worth ordering.
ReplyDeleteCute photos of Dori and Lucy! I am sure the dogs love these treats.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a very nice business. Have a great day and a happy week ahead.
