At Cullman City Lifestyle, we believe every great business has a story — and sometimes, those stories come with wagging tails, furry faces, muddy paws and sloppy kisses.
“What I appreciate most about Dixie is her unwavering loyalty and unconditional love. She eagerly accompanies me wherever I go — whether it’s to work, on a fishing trip or simply out for a drive. She looks forward to her morning treats, and we both enjoy picking out new toys for her during visits to PetSmart.” - Shayla Willingham of Heaven Scent Cleaning Services, LLC
“I've always loved animals, all kinds. Dogs specifically have always been a part of my life. Empty nesters, my husband and I were down to one dog and had decided once she passed our dog days were over. That idea didn't take, as we currently have a black Lab and four Standard Poodles! As a professional portrait photographer, I never realized how much I enjoyed photographing pets until I started doing portraits last year for a local rescue, Paws Up. Pets are now my absolute favorite subjects!” - Lisa Jones of Lisa Jones Photography

"Luna isn’t just a dog — she’s a little piece of calm in the chaos, a heartbeat at your feet. Whether it’s a rough day or just one of those moments where everything feels heavy, Luna shows up with that quiet kind of love only a loyal companion can give. She reads the room better than most people, stays close when you need her most and somehow always knows how to make you feel just a little more OK. She’s not just emotional support — she’s family. - Becky Sherer of Granite South
"Cosmo, a handsome 14-year-old Miniature Sheltie, is the official GLS Supply greeter. These days, Cosmo’s favorite pastimes are naps and chasing the ever elusive cat at the lake. Cosmo caught the cat one time but, having a gentle soul, just looked down at him because he didn’t know what else to do. The cat taunts him to this day. Back in his younger days, Cosmo would go along for the ride with Sam in his canoe exploring the lake. Boomer, a beautiful 9-year-old Blue Heeler and Australian Shepherd mix, is a rescue. With the love of Sam, his family and the GLS family, Boomer has blossomed into one of the best boys. Boomer’s favorite thing to do is play ball. Boomer can be seen sitting like a person in the front seat of Sam’s truck helping navigate the drive to and from work. - GLS Cullman family
