Owner-Brittany Pugliese
Cowtown Canines is owned by Brittany Pugliese. She has lived in Tarrant County for over 20 years. Her passion for animals began before she could remember. Growing up, she had every type of animal imaginable, including horses, dogs, cats, ferrets, chinchillas, rabbits, turtles, and iguanas. Her passion for furry things soon blossomed into a life dream.
She knew from a very early age that no matter what, she would always work with animals, especially dogs. As soon as she was old enough, she got a part time job at a veterinary clinic and a pet shop, while also assisting training classes with her father’s non-profit organization, Shadows for Life.
Brittany went on to become a veterinary assistant for several years at Farrell Animal Hospital in Arlington. She managed the kennel at Farrell and also continued to assist with the Shadows for Life training classes, but something was still missing. She loved the Veterinary industry, but wanted another option for providing care for dogs when their owners went out of town.
That was when Brittany discovered Cowtown Canines. It was perfect. It was a way for her to combine all of her knowledge and experience in one place. Brittany has owned Cowtown Canines since June of 2008. It is her life and true passion. She is at Cowtown Canines all day, every day including the weekends to take care of our day care and sleepover friends.
Brittany continues to volunteer for Shadows for Life, assisting with the training of service and therapy dogs, and helping with the rescue dogs. She also volunteers/fosters for Great Plains Mastiff rescue. Brittany has two rescued Mastiffs of her own, and tries to foster at least 6 dogs a year. Between the two organizations she has helped placed dozens of dogs over the past few years.
You can stop by pretty much any time of the day to say hi to Brittany, her two Mastiffs; Bull and Shelby, and her two Chihuahuas; Bruiser and Beast. They would love to meet you! The great thing about that is the person you meet is the person who is always taking care of your baby.
