COLLARS MAKE THE DOGS
Beastro Bandanas
Last year, in honor of the kickoff of football season, Lisa and Tim Boomershine decided to glitz up their golden retrievers with Broncos’ bandannas. The only problem? They were having a hard time finding them. So the Boomershines decided to sew their own. The bandannas scored so many points at the dog park, the Broomfield residents launched Beastro Bandanas, ensuring that this year, even the fuzziest Broncos fans can be dressed appropriately for $5 or less.
