December 19, 2003, North Richland Hills, Texas - The Great Escape Barkery yesterday donated gourmet dog treats to the North Richland Hills Animal Shelter as a way to brighten the holidays for the dogs. The Great Escape's signature red gift boxes with white bows held over 130 treats for many happy tails. These gourmet treats are made with human grade ingredients, are chemical free and have specific health benefits that come from the ingredients used. Best of all, dogs love them, and shelter dogs need some extra loving care during the holidays just like people.

The Great Escape Barkery, owned and operated by Jennifer Schramm of North Richland Hills said smiling, "Shelters have a place in my heart. My dog, 'Dixie Dawg', was adopted from a shelter and has been a huge source of joy in my home! During the holidays it's important to me to share some of our products with the shelter dogs because they need to be pampered just as people are pampering their own pets with gourmet treats during the holidays."

The Great Escape Barkery is a new gourmet dog treat bakery at www.TheGreatEscapeBarkery.com launched because people more than ever before are pampering their pets. During the holidays statistics show, that the majority of pet owners buy gifts for their pets and pets of the friends they visit during the holiday season. The Great Escape Barkery felt compelled to give something back to the community during the holiday season and picked the local animal shelter for their donation.

All the gourmet dog desserts are made with human grade ingredients and are preservative and sugar free. The ingredients used have specific health benefits that will help to keep your dog healthy, as well as happy. The doggie desserts are sweetened with honey that is a natural energy source and preservative. Rosemary is used as a natural preservative and antioxidant. Sunflower Oil is an excellent source of Vitamin E for maintaining healthy skin and coats. Apple Cider Vinegar aids allergy sufferers and helps to maintain the correct pH urine balance. Ginger is an antioxidant that helps arthritis, nausea and circulation. Carob is a great tasting source of Vitamin C and looks like a decadent chocolate dessert!

The Great Escape Barkery also offers gift boxes to celebrate your dog in a variety of themes such as "Birthday Paw-ty", "Puppy Time" for the new additions to the family, and "Spotless Spa" for fun bath times. These decorative boxes come filled with love and fun activities for both people and dogs to enjoy. Also you can subscribe to the "Monthly Munchies Club" to automatically get a box sent to your doorstep every month so you never run out, which is sure to please your pet.

February 3, 2004, North Richland Hills, Texas - The Great Escape Barkery, an online store offering gourmet doggy desserts and gifts, announces its expansion into the retail marketplace. A line of doggy bandanas designed by Jennifer Schramm, owner of The Great Escape Barkery, is now available for sale at The Blue Heron, an Orvis fly fishing shop in Colleyville, Texas. Jennifer says smiling, "These bandanas are of the 'keeper' kind. They are made of 100% cotton, are machine washable so you can keep them for a long time. They are designed to slip over your dog's existing collar which keeps them in place and reduces the amount of bulk around the neck. My dogs love to wear them and stop the neighbors who always comment on their cute bandanas."
