Meet Archie, our Canine Executive Officer

We’re also home to our very own furry team member, Archie, a one-year-old golden miniature dachshund and our bone-a-fide CEO – Canine Executive Officer.

Archie landed the top job after winning a canine-casting competition at our 2025 Pawsome Pooch event, where more than 100 dogs joined us for a free photo shoot and day out.

As our resident four-legged executive, Archie is the perfect ambassador for everything that makes Clarks Village a great day out for dogs and their owners – and we were excited to welcome even more four-legged friends this year.

We're currently choosing our 2026 Canine Executive Officer, who will follow in Archie's pawprints. We'll be announcing the new CEO later this month.
