 Dear Mr. Claus, Hey Santa, it’s Dora here. This year I've got a big list, but I've been good, I promise. 
All I want for Christmas is: Carpeting that doesn't bear the scars or stains of my recent house-breaking warfare. Dogsafe human clothing - I'd like to get to hug Mum, Dad, Granny and Aunty Rosie without them screaming "off, off, SUIT or PANTYTHOSE!!!" A warm summer - please Santa, no more mud and definitely no more thunderstorms!!! Doggie sweaters that fit and absolutely no more clothing presents (nor kids tents) from Aunty Rosie. A full time Executive Assistant for me to fill holes, scoop da poop, repair doggy damage, keep order and gather up the soft toys left outside. (then again, my devoted man-servant Dad does that for me already doesn’t he, I don’t want to be greedy!) A seamstress to mend all my dog toys (particularly ‘Little Champ’) awaiting repair. A lifetime supply of free vet care (or at least some sort of "frequent flier" discount) Massive acts of love, kindness and sanity by all animals (including humans). 
I want everyone who loves dogs to do something nice for a local shelter or rescue. Take in treats or food, volunteer to walk a dog, cuddle a puppy - whatever. All pet owners to spay or neuter their pets so overworked shelter staffs can concentrate on the millions of homeless pets already in need. I want every lost pet to find their way home. I want every abused, neglected or abandoned pet to find a loving new home. Oh, I know it's a tall order Santa, but they say miracles happen at Christmastime... To our members and visitors at MUTTS4US – we wish you a very happy, safe and dog friendly Christmas and New Year, and we hope to see you all again in 2008. Love Dora
