People often ask how Chow Bella got its name, so it’s probably time we shared the story!
Bella was my beagle and the inspiration behind our original logo. When it came time to name the business, I loved the Italian phrase “Ciao, bella,” meaning “Hello, beautiful.”
Then there was “chow”—because dogs and food naturally go together.
Put it all together, and Chow Bella was born! ❤️
Now Bella has been reimagined as our new mascot—and tomorrow she begins her new job as Chow Bella’s Chief Exploration Officer!
Keep an eye out for her in our posts. She may be hiding, pointing the way or popping up where you least expect her as she helps Saratoga discover everything waiting upstairs. 👀🐾
