New Location for GollyGear.com Small Dog Boutique

GollyGear, a boutique especially for small dogs, is open in its new Skokie, Illinois location.

Skokie, IL (PRWEB) September 21, 2006 - Golly Gear, a boutique for small dogs, has opened in its new location at 4104 Oakton St., Skokie, IL 60077.

Golly Gear got its start in the corner of a bookstore in Skokie. “We’ve had small dogs all our lives,” says Hope Saidel, co-owner, with her sister Fran, of Golly Gear. “We know how difficult it is to find even the most basic pet supplies in the right sizes for tiny dogs. Once we found some wonderful products for our own dogs, we wanted to share our finds with other small dog owners.”
   
Saidel continued “We already had the bookstore, so we just moved some books aside and started Golly Gear in one corner. At first it was just a lark, named for my sister’s Brussels Griffon, Golly. That dog is the ultimate diva – so we knew that if a product was good for Golly, other small dogs could use it, too.”
   
Before long, the sisters found that Golly Gear was exciting more interest than the bookstore. “It made sense,” Saidel said. “There are a million places out there that sell books. But Golly Gear’s product mix is unique – fun, affordable and practical items, especially for small dogs.”
   
About a year after going online with http://www.GollyGear.com and in the bookstore, the sisters decided to close the bookstore and devote an entire shop to Golly Gear. The new store is a joy, Saidel says. “We love going to work every single day.”
   
Golly Gear is now located at 4104 Oakton St., Skokie, IL 60076. Hours of the small dog boutique are 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Saturday and by appointment. Phone: 847-677-0680. Toll-free 1-800-694-6531. Website: http://www.GollyGear.com.
