A howling good update from the owner of a dacshund-theme apparel company.
Notes from Chris
Episode 1594
Welcome to Throwback Thursday / “Where are they now?” where we take an in-depth look at someone who’s story has evolved considerably since we first featured them. Recently, we’ve featured handkerchiefs, energy gum, candles, and a budget bridal blogger. Last week, we heard from the owner of Sweet Afternoon Bakeshop in Toronto, Canada. Have your cake and listen to it too! Today, in our latest feature, we’ll hear from Claire Wolfson in Long Beach, California. Together with her husband and business partner, she runs Bean Goods, which sells dachshund-themed apparel for dogs and humans. The original story, “Dachshund-Loving Duo Designs Doxie Apparel” taught me a lot about the world of dachshunds. As a fun fact, their designer is Dox Design, the graphic designer for dogs, who we featured long ago and then also in a TBT episode (#1335). Wow! What a small world of small dogs… What’s happened since? Let’s hear directly from Claire. I’ll be back at the end to wrap us up.
