Crunchy dog bones

We sincerely appreciate the support.  We can always use items that can be
quickly consumed or destroyed by the dogs such as treats and toys.

Bob, This is what I received from our kennel master...thanks

Chief,

We sincerely appreciate the support.  We can always use items that can be
quickly consumed or destroyed by the dogs such as treats and toys.

Crunchy dog bones and other small sausage type treats are welcome.  However,
the preferred type of treat that the dogs absolutely love are ones with
flavor and that they can chew on for a while.  They eat the dog bones and
other small treats too fast and look for more but the chew treats that they
can gnaw on for a while are their favorite, keeps them busy for quite a
while, and cleans their teeth.

Toys are also quickly destroyed so we are always needing items such as tug
toys, tennis balls, rubber kongs and balls, chew ropes, and any other items
that have decent durability.  We have had people send us stuffed animals in
the past but that ends up not being a good idea because they get ripped to
shreds very quickly and makes a huge mess.  Basically toys that are made for
games of tug-of-war and fetch are considered the best.

We are pretty good with items such as collars, leashes, etc.  Some other
items we could always use are dog booties for their feet, good grooming
brushes and rakes, dog shampoo (Furminator shampoo is the best), and
anything else that someone feels they would live to send.  I have no doubt
we will get use out of anything sent our way.

Again, please pass on our thanks for the support and if you have any
questions, please don’t hesitate to let me know.  Thanks.
