Let's Go Design



With the holiday season quickly approaching, along with the change in weather, now is the time to really reap the benefits of the most amazing jacket on the planet! The "Let's Go Design/K-Rosco Dog Walking Utility Jacket" has it all! One jacket . . . four seasons! From coast to coast, this jacket will have you covered. Consider this . . . The jacket is 100% waterproof, wind resistant with special seam sealing, and has as many tricks to show you as your dog! "Being prepared never looked so good!"


Retractable Treat Bag: The left jacket pocket contains a removable plastic pocket liner to hold dog treats. It's simple to take out and rinse. It is perfect for training!


Retractable Key Chain: You will always know where your house keys or car keys are . . . safe and sound in your right cargo pocket.


Reflective Piping on Seams: Talk about bright . . . I have never seen such amazing reflective piping. Trip the light fantastic and safely!


Back Mesh Pocket: This is fabulous. Take along your water bottle and you can even include a fold up bowl for your dog, or take a ball, for a game of fetch at the park.


Extractable Pick-Up Bags: You have to see it to believe it! Imagine poop bags that are dispensed through a grommet hole in your pocket! Plan on longer walks, because you are going to have to show off this amazing jacket's treasure chest of tricks.


Waist Belt and Leash: Carabiners are right up there with duct tape. Jackets come with a "belt" that makes a perfect second leash.


Check out this fantastic video from Marg Shadid, President of "Let's Go Design!"

Sashettes 2010 Calendar

Want to help fight the battle against canine cancer?  Want to help  out Golden Retriever Rescues?  Time is now running out to order a  2010 Sashette Calendar.  The calendars are being sold on a pre-order  basis this year, and they will be printed very soon.  Remember,  Christmas is just around the corner, and the calendars make  wonderful gifts.

All proceeds raised from the sales of these calendars are split  between The Smiling Blue Skies Cancer Fund  ( www.smilingblueskies.com ) and The Goldstock Fund ( www.goldstockfund.org   ).  So please don't miss out on this chance to help two very  worthwhile organizations.

Calendars can be ordered at: http://www.goldstockfund.org/specials/2010sashettecalendar.html

A photo gallery of the pictures in the calendar can be seen at:

Thanks

We are trying something different this year.

They will be mailed out towards the end of October.

For Canadians who wish to pay by cheque, please contact me at cdngoldens@lazyriver.ca

I would like to thank all our sponsors for the 2009 Calendar, Wendy at b-unique, Canine Life, Katie Dyer & Team Fur, the Golden Retriever Club Of Quebec, Mark & Shereen Farber, Richard Carlton Consulting, Jane & Rick Fish of Source Menagerie, Deb Haggerty & Spud Rich of Spudder Junction, Ann of Tigertail Foods, West Coast Canine Life, and Xciting Ideas who is also our printer. I also would like to thank all the Sashette owners for putting up with my nagging and providing me with such great pictures, and last but not least, all of you who supported us by purchasing a calendar.

With your help we raised $1400.00 with the 2009 calendars, all of which went to The Goldstock Fund and The Smiling Blue Skies Cancer Fund. Over the past 5 years the Sashette calendars has raised $5898.44 for these two funds. I can't begin to tell you how proud I am of what Sasha's litter of puppies has accomplished with this calendar.

Woofstock

When Woofstock launched in 2003, the Toronto Star called it "the summer of canine love." What else can you call 140,000 dog lovers and their four-footed friends coming together each year for this wildly popular doggie love-in! Woofstock is the largest outdoor festival for dogs in all of North America. Each year, Woofstock hosts a special "Doggie High Tea" honouring Canine Cancer Survivors, who are treated to freshly baked "cookies" while they lap a specially prepared brewed "tea" in the King Edward Hotel's picturesque Windsor Ballroom. Help raise funds for OVC Pet Trust, Woofstock's charity of choice.
