A Toast To Tito.


EARLIER THIS YEAR, THE NEW BARKER partnered with Tito’s Handmade Vodka to create a social media contest for adopted dogs. The contest post reached almost 16,000 people on THE NEW BARKER Facebook page.


Tito Beveridge and Rosco at Tito’s Handmade Vodka distillery, just outside of Austin.


The top three dogs with the most votes, received the honor of having a cocktail created in their name, using Tito’s Handmade Vodka, of course. In no particular order, the winners are Taj from Boca Raton; Aggie from St. Petersburg and Reggie from Tampa.


FIRST, A BIT ABOUT THE MAN BEHIND THE VODKA FOR DOG PEOPLE. Twenty years ago, in Austin, a geologist- turned-mortgage-man began a hobby with his trusted white German Shepherd mix, Jo, by his side.
