A Vintage Addiction Secret Revealed
A Vintage Addiction
Secret Revealed
Hey there, it’s Bella again.
Well, it turns out I am not the only dog at A Vintage Addiction. A surprise to me, Mom has other dogs.
How did I discover that I am not her one and only? I happened to be in our office when an order came in for a dog figurine. Here at A Vintage Addiction, we respond to orders immediately so a bustle of activity ensued. While Mom was wrapping the little dog she said to me, “Bella, this pup has a lazy ear just like you do.”

I gave her my best "What'chu talkin' 'bout, Willis?” look while I focused on my mantra, “Sono unico e del tutto adorabile”. In Italian, that means, “I am unique and entirely adorable.”
Imagine my surprise to find out that dog had been just steps away from where I sleep. Granted, he was porcelain and packed in a shipping box, but whoa, another dog.
Wondering if other secrets were being kept from me, I searched each of Mom’s websites. Flabbergasted, I found many dogs. Stuffed animals. Figurines. Ornaments. Books about dogs. Coffee mugs. A canister with that pesky Toto and his people. Toys! Squeaky ones and roly-poly toddler toys. And, the ultimate insult, a cookie jar she wrote would be good for dog treats.
This just can’t be. Everything ‘dog’ must get sold. Now.
I cannot spend the last days of winter among them. Every dog item needs a new home by Spring.
Please take a look. Tweet, Instagram, link them in and pin them. Email this to a friend. Share on Facebook. Help me re-establish my position as the one and only.
