Pirates & Pearls


Pink Punk Pirate

As the holiday that officially marks the end of summer draws near, the sounds of preparation are punctuated with bursts of, “Aarrrr!” and “Avast me Hearties!” That’s right, September 19th is International Talk Like A Pirate Day. Piratical silliness has spread like fleas on a pack of scurvy dogs, as all the online Pirate-themed pages can attest. So, don your Capt. Jack Sparrow wig, parrot or skull and crossbones jewelry, slog that grog, shake up your normal speech pattern and ye’ll be swaggerin’ with all ye fine Pirattitude on this grand and glorious holiday. After all, winter is nearly upon us and around here it’s hard to swagger in snowboots.

About Me

2 Dog Studios
Theresa began 2 Dog Studios with the encouragement of her supportive and very patient husband, Brit. The name 2 Dog Studios is derived from their two rescue dogs, Cecelia and Howie. Because of them and experiencing first hand the deplorable conditions of so many stray animals, Theresa & Brit foster numerous stray/injured animals, and 2 Dog Studios donates a portion of all proceeds to animal rescue and adoption agencies. Visit 2 Dog Studios on Facebook to learn more.
