On one of my many weekend shopping trips here in Panama, I found a wonderful little store in Multiplaza. Had I not sat down for a quick breather and a cup of great coffee, I would’ve missed it. Fashion Petzzz & Me is hidden down the hallway beside Sanborn’s in the new area of the mall. You can’t miss their big, pink sign when you know where to look.

My first thought walking in was that if I were an 8 year old girl; I’d be squealing, jumping up and down and clapping my hands. The store looks like a place that Barbie and the Bratz would hang out with their Chihuahuas and Poodles, feeling very posh and grown up at their very own store with their very own doggies.

Indiana Arce de Pages, one of the bi-lingual owners told me that they believe our dogs should be considered a part of the family and that many of her clients consider them to be their children. She thinks this is wonderful and encourages you to come and outfit your child with something gorgeous.

Whether your child has four legs and is precious or two legs and is glamorous, this is where you should be shopping for Christmas and Hanukah. Don’t forget to bring your furry friend with you as the ladies are always happy to meet a new pup and introduce them around.
