For the next 12 days I will be featuring creative, crafty, pragmatic or luxurious gifts for the dog lover in your life.  I know there is a massive credit crunch squeezing the global economy.  But, thoughtful, original gifts don’t need to be expensive.   Finding them just takes a little time.  Hopefully, that’s where I can help this season.  I have been scouting interesting finds this whole year to share with you to make your shopping, shipping and enjoyment of the holidays a little easier.

Feel free to email me and let me know what you are looking for or what you would like to see more of. 

BTW, did you know the Twelve Days of Christmas might not just be a rousing Christmas carol but rather, “a song of Christian instruction dating to the 16th
century religious wars in England, with hidden references to the basic
teachings of the Faith…a mnemonic device
to teach the catechism to youngsters.”  For example, “Two turtle doves” represents the Old and New Testament.  ( Read more here.)
