Huckleberry

STOP BY THIS TRENDY SOBRO spot for your fill of unique literary titles—and for a few friendly licks from gentle giant Huckleberry. His owners are sure their lovable pet has brought in more than a few customers after they see him lounging in the front window. The 8-year-old pup greets shoppers and can even show them to the nearest stack of fashion magazines—his favorite is a dog-centric publication called Four & Sons.

Bella and Charlie

THIS BROTHER-AND-SISTER duo is sure to brighten your day as you admire fine tableware in this shop. As you browse, 3-year-old Cavachons Bella and Charlie can assist in finding the perfect dinnerware or baby-shower gift, or you’ll meet them later at checkout. The two seem most comfortable in their beds, a monogrammed and “burrow-friendly” set available in the store, perched beside the register.

Smokey

AFTER AN UNFORTUNATE mouse invasion due to a misplaced bird feeder, the owners of this salvage shop needed a quick solution—cue Smokey the cat. You’ll see this mellow rescue welcoming customers at the front door or sunbathing in the bay window, but only if the neighborhood pooches aren’t in sight. Shoppers are encouraged to bring their pets, but be warned of Smokey’s animosity toward dogs.

London Blue

SPOILER ALERT: CHECK OUT this sweet 2-year-old on Instagram (@LondonBlueFrenchie) for a behind-the-scenes look at the exciting life of a shop dog. This canine-friendly men’s lifestyle retailer offers apparel, accessories, and home goods, but it’s London Blue, the affectionate pup in the front yard, who seems to attract the most customers. Owner Corey Bee offers a water bowl for all of his furry shoppers who work up a thirst.

Charlie and Townes

OUTDOOR-LOVERS OF ALL AGES can enjoy the company of not one but two amiable dogs while shopping for their next hiking or skiing trip. Both Charlie and Townes can be seen in this store just off the Monon Trail (a favorite pit stop for families) nearly seven days a week in usually two places: You can spot little Charlie’s nose poking out from under the knife display, but not before tripping over Townes lying in the middle of the kayaking-gear aisle.

Maggie Moo

IS IT TIME TO UPDATE YOUR backyard? Check out this Nora shop for its selection of houseplants, flowers, and lawn accessories. You’re bound to see Maggie Moo, the store’s full-time resident cat, perched atop a bale of straw or being scooped up into the arms of a shopper. Despite weighing nearly 15 pounds, the 9-year-old feline is an avid hunter and often shows off her finds—probably not the gift-with-purchase buyers are looking for.
