Obviously not everyone is going to agree on a topic; here we prefer to talk out our differences in a respectful manner to ensure mutual understanding and respect. 2. Read the Stickies and Announcements. Each sub-forum may have specific rules which trump the Forum Rules in cases where there may be conflicting information. Read the rules of each board before you post so that you are clear on the expectations of the staff. 3. Respect ALL Staff and Admins. These people volunteer of their time and MUST be respected as well as their word adhered to. They are responsible for maintaining a free, open, clear and organized forum. Anyone found to be openly undermining any official ruling by a staff member will be warned. 4. Signatures: One picture only and no links.

Should you need assistance creating an appropriate signature, please PM an Admin and we would be happy to help!

Here is our video! I probably should have opened it the following day- since the dogs were grumpy from a 14 hour car ride followed nearly immediately by a 5 mile run to my best friend's salon to get them groomed... woops. They are very good at vocally expressing their irritation with me! I usually would be a lot more enthusiastic, but it was 5 hours after just getting home- had no sleep and was pretty down after picking up my little Moo's ashes. But everything was thoroughly enjoyed! Thank you!

We finally got to open ours! Thank you very much, Brook and Kale! The video is in 3 parts because my phone decided I was done filming once and then Ghost ran upstairs with one of her toys.
Also, please excuse the boxes, I'm only partly unpacked

The boys opened their gifts last night, to make getting out of the house this morning much easier. The card didn't say who it was from, but it is from Utah. I forgot which user I thought it was originally.... I really want to go to bed, so I'm being lazy and not looking at the old SS thread.
Anyways.... Here's some pics!
Checking out the box
The card
Presents!
(Not sure what kind of face he is making lol)
They loved these so much!
Awesome idea! I never get home before dark!
All natural buffalo jerky for dogs and cats. They haven't tried this yet, but it sure looks yummy!
Aftermath
Wyatt and Danzig thank our SS very much! They loved the gifts.

Ah, sorry about the peanuts! I didn't pack it, UPS did, so I didn't know they used them. I hope Kale didn't eat any!

Our Secret Santa was Kelly, Nicky, and Hayden. Thank you soooooo much!! The pups loved their presents!!
Both of their presents came in one big box. It was big enough for Ava to play in, so after I opened it up, we had some fun. I had her get in it for a picture, and she kinda liked it. She even took a nap in the box. Silly husky
Sleepy Ava
The pups with their beautifully wrapped presents
We opened Snickers' first. He stuck his head in, grabbed the bullystick, and ran with it lol
Until his bullystick was gone, he was totally disinterested in the rest of his present. Go figure. But we piled the rest of his stuff on him while he chewed and he didn't care. I love how much the stuffed dog looks like him
Action shot of Ava diving in after her bullystick...
She chewed on it until she fell asleep, still holding onto it. She LOVES her squirrels, by the way. We've gotten a few sets of them and they're her favorite toy of all time. She welcomed her new ones, as you can see.
We piled them both with all their stuff for a picture...
Thank you, Nicky, Hayden, and Kelly!! You guys paid attention to all the little things that I said each one liked/disliked and it was perfect. Merry Christmas

I tried taking a video of Nicky & Hayden opening their gift, but the camera wouldn't record, so here are a few pictures.
Our SS was Danzig, Wyatt, Comet and Dustin.
Thank you for the squeaker balls and the sock monkey's. Our Yorkie has claimed the sock monkey's and won't let anyone near them. Hayden takes both squeaker balls and refuses to share them with Nicky haha. She manages to take one when Hayden sleeps. She's playing with the blue one now.

Kelly, I'm glad they liked the gifts. We had to buy a ball for Danzig too, because we knew he'd love it. He loves walking around and squeaking it lol.

Oh no! Don't worry about it! I had to put plastic air packers in the one I sent so it wouldn't rattle around lol. He's chewing on the antler you sent right now

Our Secret Santa was Angela P and Stark. Thank you for the wonderful gifts. They are exactly what he loves. He wasn't sure about the cookies at first but he yelled at me today to give him one . His favorite was by far the football. Couldn't wait for me to take it off the package.
Here is video of us opening the box. https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=u2vJpA0PM5g

Ok so I stopped being lazy and I think my gift was from CJ and Chevelle. If so, thank you again. We tried the jerky last night and now Danzog won't stop running over to the counter where we stored it. Unfortunately, he gets a limited amount since he's a fatty.
