By far the most important and valuable member of the Cowbelly team is a delightful furry creature by the name of Ferguson, or ‘Fergie’ as her friends and fans know her. The mascot for the business, the apple of Jamie’s eye, the most photographed dog in the city of Seattle.
She is Jamie’s teammate both in business and in her personal life, and her daily presence is what motivates the business and works behind the scenes in everything you see here.
She is also, of course, the most gorgeous canine you will ever lay your eyes on. Please see for yourself:

Some important deets on this darling girl:
Name: Fergie (short for Ferguson)
Means: ‘big strong man’ in Celtic

Nicknames: Monkey, Monks, Monkey-Doo, Monkey-Doodle, Puppy-Doo, Puppy-Doodle, Doodle-doo, Ferginand, Fergorama, Fergatroid, Fergs, Fergster, Fergalicious, and when she is very, very bad- FERGUSON PFLUGHOEFT!

Born: 7/6/05 (or somewhere thereabouts. Fergie is adopted, so we don’t really know)

Breed: Rhodesian Ridgeback, Lab, Pitbull. The very best potpourri of breeds in our opinions!

Loves: tennis balls, swimming, her purple squirrel and green rubber ball, going to the dog park and playing with other dogs, people, garden hoses, bananas, belly rubs, giving ‘five’ and licking feet.

Quirks: sits like a boy, cocks her head at the words “doggies”, “do you wanna…?”, “park” and ‘hungry”, and draws out her barks like a hound dog.

Came from: PAWS (Progressive Animal Welfare Society) in Lynnwood, Washington via Petfinder.

Seattle haunts: Kinnear Park, Norm’s Eatery in Fremont, lower Queen Anne shops, Chase bank QA branch, Magnuson Park, All The Best QA, Bark in Ballard, + wherever her mom goes.

Fergie provides her artist/photographer mom with plenty of creative inspiration and opportunities to sharpen her picture-taking skills, and reminds her every day of how strong and valuable the human-animal bond is.
Jamie loves her buddy more than life itself, and everything she does she does for her pooch. Those of you who have a dog will understand this, those who don’t can just sit back and read and come to learn why they are such incredible animals. We like the think that the pictures tell it all.
To reach Fergie and send her fan mail please email her at info@cowbelly.com and be sure to put :”for Fergie” in the subject line so she’ll be sure to get it. If you’d like to send her a gift in the mail, please send it to 24 Roy St #466, Seattle, WA 98109. She will reply personally and loves hearing from her virtual buddies! Oh also, boys, Fergie *is* single, so if you are a pooch between 45-85 pounds, and like rough and tumble play, communal stick chewing sessions and jumping off docks, she is your gal!
Hope you enjoy our Fergie girl as much as we do- WE LOVE FERGIE!!
