December is going to be upon us before we know it, so here are some details on the Christmas walk and photos.
Christmas photos will take place at Petsmart North (13916 – 137 Avenue) on December 5 from 2-4 pm, and at Petsmart East (13680 – 50 Street) on December 12, 13, and 19 from 11 am to 4 pm. Proceeds from the photos these four days will go to Chinook Winds Greyhound Rescue. Come out and get a picture of your grey with a greyhound-savvy Santa and elves!
The Christmas walk will be the Jingle-On Parade. The Jingle-On Parade takes place through the pedways of downtown Edmonton, and is a great indoor walk. The greyhounds are Santa’s reindeer and jingle dogs, and there is plenty of opportunity for pets and lovings. To sign up for the walk, please contact Deb Ward.
There is also a Fun Run scheduled at John and Deb’s for New Year’s Day, weather permitting. Everyone cross your fingers for a nice New Year’s so we can let the hounds celebrate too!
As always, any questions, drop me a line!
Hey, I met you guys at the september picnic. My fiancee and I have our two greyhounds Bugs and Alaina, we just all moved from winnipeg, MB. Just wondering the details on the christmas walk. It says we have to sign up?
Thanks talk to you soon,
Sarah
Hi Sarah,
Yes, to sign up for the Jingle On Parade, you need to contact Deb Ward. The reason for this is so that the parade organizers know how many dogs to expect, and so that we have enough antlers and jingle collars for them all. It’s always a really fun indoor walk, so we hope you can make it!
I would like to bring Bolt to the Jingle On parade and I cannot get the Deb Ward link to work…do you have an email address for her? Thanks much!
Hi Susan,
You’re absolutely right; I fouled up the code on the email link. It’s fixed now! I blame renovation dust.
