The great pleasure of dogs is that you make a fool of yourself with them and not only will they not scold you, they will make fools of themselves too.

-- Samuel Butler

I am, as always, overwhelmed. PRIZES: We looked in our bags of TRICKS and donated some wonderful TREATS, which will be sent out during the next week. 2015: As Jim Morrison once sang, This is the end, my friend . . . . Too many fundraisers are chasing after too few wallets, so I think this fundraiser will go on hiatus for at least a year. Perhaps this SHOULD become an alternate year project . . . the enthusiasm seems to be winding down. So, start thinking now about costumes for 2016! It's been fun for me; I love making pages to coordinate with the costumes. The websites for ALL the years will be up permanently, so feel free to browse them again. PAY IT BACK: PURCHASE ITEMS FOR THE HOWLIDAYS TO BENEFIT CRUSA, NAR (NATIONAL AIREDALE RESCUE), AIRECANADA, AIREDALE RESCUE OF AUSTRALIA & OTHER RESCUES WORLD WIDE HERE
