Today we said goodbye to one of our shop dogs, Vader. ❤️
Vader was a lot of things. Loyal, lovable, extremely lumpy, and occasionally a complete menace. You could always tell when he was making his way around the corner, and somehow his presence made the shop feel a little more like home.
Of course Vader would choose the same day as Dolly Parton to head out. If you’re going to make an exit, you might as well do it in legendary company. Very on brand for our favorite little menace. ❤️
Alongside his sister Padme, Vader has been part of the Shirts Up family for so long that it’s hard to picture the shop without him here.
We loved every weird, stubborn, bumpy, wonderful part of him.
We’re going to miss you, buddy. More than you know.
Rest easy, Vader. Forever part of the Shirts Up family, forever part of the crew. 🐾❤️
