LexiDog Boutique & Social Club was founded in May 2002 by Portland native Suzanne Hein, and of course her Min Pin, Lexi. Suzanne's extensive experience as a Vice-President of Merchandising for a large regional retailer created the desire to continue her passion for retail with her own company. Her love of Lexi gave her the inspiration for LexiDog; a place where dogs are our children who deserve to be a little spoiled, as well as a 'social' place where parents could bring their dog to a fun, loving and safe daycare while they were at work, and enjoy 'social' activities centered around their pet.
