Item 4.01. Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant.

Big Dog Holdings, Inc. (the "Company") replaced Deloitte & Touche, LLP
("Deloitte") as the independent auditor of the Company, effective September 29,
2004. The Company has engaged Singer Lewak Greenbaum & Goldstein LLP ("SLGG") as
its independent auditor, effective September 29, 2004. The decision to change
independent auditors and the appointment of the new auditors was made by the
Audit Committee of the Company's Board of Directors. The audit reports of
Deloitte on the Company's financial statements for the fiscal years ended
December 31, 2003 and December 31, 2002 did not contain an adverse opinion or a
disclaimer of opinion, nor were such reports qualified or modified as to
uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.

During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2003 and December 31, 2002, and the
period through the date of this disclosure, there were no disagreements with
Deloitte on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial
statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedures, which disagreements, if
not resolved to Deloitte's satisfaction, would have caused them to make
reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with their
report on the Company's financial statements for such years.

During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2003 and December 31, 2002, and
through the date of this disclosure, Deloitte did not advise the Company with
respect to any of the matters described in paragraphs (a)(1)(v)(A) through (D)
of Item 304 of Regulation S-K.

During the two most recent fiscal years and the period through the date of this
disclosure, the Company did not consult with SLGG regarding either (i) the
application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either
completed or proposed; (ii) the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on
the Company's financial statements; or (iii) any matter that was either the
subject of disagreement (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K) or
a reportable event (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).

The Company has provided Deloitte with a copy of the foregoing disclosure.
Attached as an exhibit hereto is a copy of Deloitte's letter, dated September
29, 2004, in response to the foregoing disclosure.
