NEW DROP - PERSONALIZED TREAT DEALER TEE
Preppy Kelly Green and Pink

Who's the real Treat Dealer in your house?

Let's be honest... your pets have you completely trained!

This is for you if somehow, they:

* Appear out of nowhere the second the cabinet opens...
* And stare into our soul's until we give in 😂

That's why we created our Treat Dealer Tee; for every pet parent who's happily wrapped around their furry best friend's paw!

**Make it personal! Include those pets' names!

💚 Every purchase helps support the animals at the SPCA of Luzerne County, so you can spoil your own pets while helping shelter pets find loving homes.
