Press Release Author = Hannah Simpson

Press Release Summary = Becky Marshall, a Columbia College Chicago graduate student,
has created Chilly Dawg, a company that serves all natural frozen treats for dogs.

Press Release Body = Chicago, IL (August 7, 2004) Move over dog biscuits, there's a
new treat in town -- Chilly Dawg! These all natural frozen snacks are available in
four delicious 4 oz. flavors: Barkin' Apple, Berry Bite, Puppy Nutter, and Beggin'
Banana. All are made with soy milk and, depending on the flavor, a puree of fruit or
homemade peanut butter. Chilly Dawg treats can be found in Chicago area stores, at
dog parks, the Montrose Beach dog beach, farmer's markets and events where people
and dogs gather together. Visit www.chilly-dawg.com for retail locations and
ordering information.
Becky Marshall, the company's owner and a graduate student in Interior Architecture
at Columbia College Chicago, came up with the idea of Chilly Dawg after visiting an
ice cream shop. She yearned for a healthy treat alternative for her German Shepherd,
Hailey, and instead of buying ice cream (which upsets dogs' stomachs), she set out
to create her own delicious, healthy frozen treat. She began making homemade treats
that she kept in her freezer, and Hailey immediately went crazy for them. "Not only
do dogs love Chilly Dawg, but their guardians can feel great about giving them this
all natural treat any day of the year!"
Be on the lookout for Marshall and her Chilly Dawg treats at the Anti-Cruelty
Society's dog wash from 11 a.m. until 4 p.m. on Saturday, August 14, 2004 as well as
at C.A.R.E. (Community Animal Rescue Effort) for the Animal Shelter in Evanston and
their annual dog wash on Saturday, September 11 from 9 a.m. until 2 p.m.
