Feel the Love
Special Note: This week’s auction closes on THURSDAY (January 14th) at 8:00 p.m.
We’re continuing our online auctions as they continue to be an effective way to raise funds for the DVGRR dogs while we are still unable to hold in-person fundraisers. We’ll continue to hold the online auctions and hope you’ll participate or simply share the auction information on your social media platforms to help spread the word and generate interest.
If you have any items you would like to donate for the auctions, please mail them to DVGRR (Attn: Inza Adams, 60 Vera Cruz Rd., Reinholds, PA 17569) or drop them off at Golden Gateway. We ask that donated items be NEW. Gift cards and scratch-off lottery tickets are always needed and appreciated.
We have secured April 17, 2021 as the date for our Golden Gala event at Rivercrest Golf Club, Phoenixville, PA. At this time, we invite you to email us regarding your interest in attending (inza@dvgrr.org); however, no payments will be accepted until March 1st, at which time we’ll be able to confirm holding the event as planned.
This is the only in-person event we have scheduled at this time. We continue to monitor state guidelines for indoor/outdoor events, and as soon as we are able to safely gather, we will let you know our plans for on-site events for the remainder of 2021.
Item #1
Mani’s and pedi’s for you and your pup. Start your pampering while relaxing in a bath with one of the three scented bath bombs, then slip on your adorable “Dog Person” night shirt (size S/M comparable to a ladies size 6/8) and cozy pink slippers (size 9/10). Night shirt has its own drawstring bag. Now it’s time to get your nails and you dog’s paws looking great! Choose from seven sets of Color Street® nail polish strips for you. Includes nail files, cuticle stick, and nail polish remover clips. Your pup can be entertained with the Kong® ball toys or chew on the Benebone while you pamper your nails. Next, it’s time to clean up those paws! Use the “Dog Moms Love Clean Paws” microfiber cloth to clean those muddy paws. Either use the metal dog nail file or the battery-operated green Dremel® tool to give the pup’s nails a trim/clip.
