Gene, both my babies will be gone to college next year for Mother's Day so this may be the best game in town for me. I guess it's a good thing I have my pooch to keep me company.

What a great idea. I know a lot of Moms who love to pamper their pets on their special day. I have to see if any local store is offering this special for Mother's day.

They come back, Tammie!! But I understand where you're coming from. I know you have relatives in the area ... so come on up to Mokena with your pooch. We'll be glad to see you!

Make sure you spread the word about what you find out, Evelyn. I'm sure other "mom" will want to know ...

I agree, Carla ... what a fantastic price! The organizers of this charity and event are good people trying to do great things. I join you in wishing them the best .. and I hope my post helps a bit too ...

Well, now that we know how we both feel about dogs - I have to say $15 is a very worthy contribution for what you get in return! Great idea for a fundraiser.

You're doggone right, Judi!

You're right, Joan ... who wouldn't have fun washing cute doggies?? I hope they have plenty of tails wagging afterwards ...

Cheryl: I hadn't heard of it either .. at least not in our area. It's definitely novel ... and an idea that I hope many families take advantage of. It's a very good cause ...

Gabe: Cute, isn't it? Showing some cleverness and creativity. Hopefully it pays off big for everyone involved ... dogs, families ... and recipients ...

Hopefully early enough that people can still fit it into their Mother's Day plans, Don. Who wouldn't want a fluffy, good smelling dog for mom??

Good to hear from you, Paul! And you're right ... puppies like to know they're clean too and show off. I know our dog did ...
