Dog Ears marks 30 years in Northport

Dog Ears Books in Northport is embarking on its 31 year in business.

The Northport book store turned 30 in July 2023. Owner Pamela Grath considered various ways she might celebrate that milestone, including a big party for customers and/or a special series of author events, but in the end, she settles for a quiet new guest book and 30th anniversary bookmarks.

“Losing my husband in 2022 changed my life so much,” she said. “That I simply didn’t have it in me to organize a large event.”
