2007 Terrier Toys hosted fund raising event

A million thank you paws to Terrier Toys for hosting this successful holi-dog (owner's too) fund raising evening. Giggles and laughs were heard as hundreds of squeaker toys...had to be tried. Deciding upon just the right one for their Westie was a certain priority. Owners were delighted with the custom designed jewelry, commissioned artisan Westie portrait jackets, collar shirts and t-shirts. Beautiful leather handbags, adorned with commissioned portrait Westie head studies were especially well received. And as the festive evening closed, everyone was presented with complimentary bone shaped, red squeaky toys, especially embroidered in gold lettering, reading...“I believe in Santa Paws”. Yes, we do!!!!!
