PUP PROFILE // PARKER + PROMISE TANGEMAN

When you happen upon graphic designer Promise Tangeman’s website, you stick around for a bit.  Her’s is one of those portfolio sites that captures you from first glance and encourages you to dig deeper.  So it really is no wonder that she helps other bloggers and creatives  design their own gorgeous sites through her Sitehouse Designs studio.  Needless to say, I am a huge fan of her work, and her pup Parker is pretty incredible too.  Let’s all get to know this curly-haired cutie!

What breed is your dog?
Golden Doodle: Golden Retriever +Poodle

How old is he?
He just turned one on December 21, 2012.

How did you and your dog come to be together?
Such a meaningful story! Our friend’s 5-year-old daughter, Kate, was diagnosed with a rare brain tumor (heart breaking and devastating) a few years ago. Kate fell in love with the pet therapy Goldendoodle dog that would visit her in the hospital. She was then given the cutest Golden doodle puppy as a gift from the breeder that she named Patrick. While Kate was in chemo and therapy we would dog sit Partrick for her. We absolutely fell in love with fluffy P and would thoroughly enjoy our time with him. Last year for Christmas my husband surprised me with Patrick’s baby cousin who we named Parker! Parker and Patrick’s mothers are sisters… haha. That’s how they came to be cousins! The dogs love to play together! And there is no current evidence of disease! Woohoo!! And we hope that someday Parker can be a pet therapy dog too! He needs a wee bit more training first.

In one word, how would you define your dog’s personality?
Captivating

What is your dog’s favorite toy/treat/plaything?
Bully sticks

If your dog were human, what career do you think they would have?
He would probably be a therapist of counselor. He always knows how to meet you where you’re at, and then cheer you up.

What celebrity does your dog most resemble? (personality counts!)
Hmm… either Alf, Teddy Ruxbin, or Fozzie Bear.

Where is your dog’s favorite place in the house?
The arm of our couch. He can watch the whole downstairs from that view.

What do you love most about your dog?
His cuddly personality and his humor.

Finish this sentence: The love of a dog is __________________.
