"After 15 remarkable years, we’re celebrating the incredible journey of our dear friend and team member, who started with us as a talented young professional. To me, Chantal is like American apple pie—just pure, wholesome goodness, comforting, and absolutely wonderful in every way. From her bright, fun personality—complete with her memorable colorful wigs, fairy earbuds, and fancy nails—to her fierce dedication and deep love for the animals, she has brought so much joy and life to The DapperDog.
It has been amazing to watch her grow into a strong, independent woman, embrace marriage, and become a loving mother to her children. Beyond her incredible contributions to our business and her flawless work ethic, she has been a true blessing to our family—often warmly referring to me as her 'bonus mom.' She has always been like a second daughter to me, even though I have my own children, and I could never fully live up to being the bonus mom she deserves, though I'm deeply honored she feels that way about me.
While the business will certainly miss her unique spark, we're so grateful that our friendship will continue, and we wish her endless success and happiness in this next chapter on the family farm.
As her last week with us has finally arrived.
I wanted to be sure everyone had a chance to
share a favorite memorie or farewell wishes in the comments below for Chantal to see!" Thank you!! We love you Chantal!!🤗🥰❤️🐶
