Remembering Yogi
Yogi wasn’t just a dog. He was the staple of so many people’s lives, especially the Star brite family. He was the first face to greet you when you walked into the office. The bathroom concierge in the ladies’ room. The butt you scratched under the conference room table during meetings. The boss of the booth at trade shows. The best friend to every kid at every event. The face you couldn’t ignore, the one you had to walk over to and give a rub.
Yogi was family. To his human, Gregor, to all of us, and to anyone who ever sat on the floor with him, scratched his head, or took a picture because he made them smile.
Part of Us
He was part of us. The slobber that held everything together. The brown dog of Star brite. He showed exactly who we are as a company without ever saying a word. If you’ve ever been to an event or a show, you knew exactly which booth was ours because there was a big brown dog laying there like he owned the place. And we wouldn’t have wanted it any other way.
Well Traveled
They say dogs only see the world we show them. And Yogi’s world was the definition of a life lived to the fullest.
A Full Life
A lifetime of fishing trips, boat rides, and motorcycle miles. Island hopping in the Bahamas. Sandbars in the Keys. Off-road adventures in Alaska. Endless tennis balls and swimming. Yogi lived more life than most people ever will.

In Memory
He was the best dog.
The best brown dog.
And he will be missed more than words can say.
Rest easy, Yogi
