I want to celebrate the Spirit of the Season by wishing everyone Happy Holiday’s and a very prosperous New Year! I also want to thank everyone for their support of the effort of The Official Vick Dog Chew Toy.

In this edition I want to reflect back a bit. I will tell you why at the end of this message. The Official Vick Dog Chew Toy was born through events that I personally never would have been involved with. Animal abuse was never a part of my life. I have never witnessed it or been involved with it at any level. I have adopted pets from shelters, but in doing so simply thought it was someone’s loss and my gain.

When I was thrust into this situation I did so through an absolute unbelievable occurrence that I personally thought was an exception to the human rules that we all follow. Through my work with The Official Vick Dog Chew Toy I have grown to understand, to much dismay and disappointment, that although the acts of Vick and his people were extreme they are an unfortunate part of our society.

This leads me to the challenge that I set forth with The Official Vick Dog Chew Toy. Via symbolic reference, WE were all able to keep the visibility and outrage alive. For me personally, I have been privileged to learn about and meet so many people that give SO MUCH to care for neglected and abused animals. There is a network out there, one that I sincerely hope that I have helped to enhance, that give unconditional devotional caring for those pets that no one wants. To just be involved in their efforts makes me truly blessed.

My Team of 1 and I have been able to give away thousands of Official Vick Dog Chew Toys while continuing to cover cost and manage debt. From what I have been told, hundreds of worthy organizations have been able to do the same through a simple yet effective Product. This is a tribute to ALL that have purchased. I sincerely THANK each one of you.

In conclusion, I told you at the start that I would tell you why this is a moment of reflection. Our inventory is running low and there are no plans to reproduce The Official Vick Dog Chew Toy. At this moment this is the last Holiday Season that we will have our product to offer. While I will still stay connected to the great organizations that I have been affiliated with, The Official Vick Dog Chew Toy will soon be a product of the past.

I sincerely thank each and every person for their support. We will continue to serve until the last Official Vick Dog Chew Toy is gone. I appreciate your continued support.

Now, on to the winner of The Official Vick Dog Chew Toy Bark For Awareness Campaign, week 15! Taking 45% of the votes this week’s winner is: BULLY WAG! Here is some information about Bully Wag and their great efforts:

BullyWag, Inc. began as mother and daughter wanting to do more to help change some peoples opinion of pit bull-type dogs. As time progressed, we became disappointed and frustrated with the huge numbers of pit bull-type dogs (or dogs that look like pit bull-type dogs) being euthanized in the state of Georgia.

Our purchase winner for this week is Stephanie from RI! Stephanie purchased her Official Vick Dog Chew Toy on 12/17/11. For their efforts Bully Wag will receive 3 FREE Official Vick Dog Chew Toys and Stephanie will receive 1 FREE toy.

Thanks for all you do.

Vick Chew Toy BFA3 Week 12 and 13

Welcome Back Official Vick Dog Chew Toy Fans! I apologize for the week 11 layoff. I have been traveling a bit and locked into a hotel in Pennsylvania (of all places) that had an internet connection equivalent to 1998 dial up! It took me four hours each night just to ensure our orders were shipped.

There is so much to say about the current affairs of our hated Vick. He hasn’t played in 3 weeks due to much deserved injuries. Many have asked me if the lack of playing time by Vick hurts our ability to continue to raise awareness. Quite frankly, it has NOT. But why?

I can only answer it this way: we as a society are willing to give most a second chance. But we are also instinctively attuned to those that deserve of a second chance. When one is given and when one is not deserved or earned, we are also instinctively attunded to take that offer back.

When Vick got his plea, showed little to no remorse for what he had done, then signed a multi-million dollar deal to play in the NFL with the Eagles, those of us that love and care for abused and neglected pets were handed a second blow to the face. It is now that second blow that we are fighting back against.

The Eagles and Vick were supposed to be the dream team. Win it all. Now that we, as pet lovers, owners and care takers see the true justice that is being handed down we are as energized as ever! You see, pet lovers know the real truth because we know the love of pets goes well beyond what anyone can attest. In that love, we also know that those who seek harm and pursue damage to defenseless, loving animals join the ranks of the worst in society. Vick and the Eagles, your season is over, your dream team is over and all of those that support The Official Vick Dog Chew Toy and all we do will continue to rise up and keep you on notice! You cannot escape through a plea, a half ass apology, or an NFL helmet.

Now, on to the FREE Official Vick Dog Chew Toys! We have two weeks to cover, so let’s get to it. Week 11 saw an increase in votes, but many organizations that are barely meeting our minimum requirement. Please use your involvement in the Bark For Awareness Giveaway to rally support for your great work!

Week 11 winner, taking 35% of the votes is:
The Humane Society of Houston County! Here is a little bit of information about this great Organization:

HSHoCo is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization dedicated to serving Houston County. We will educate the public on the importance of spaying & neutering, micro-chipping and responsible pet care. Through volunteer networks we will provide foster care programs. We will offer adoptions and encourage a community No Kill Plan. In the near future, we plan to expand our abilities with a shelter, and hopefully, an area for spay/neuter and treatment.

Congratulations to Humane Society of Houston County! As a result of their vote total and the Patriots 4 TD’s against the Eagles I am pleased to send 4 FREE Offical Vick Dog Chew Toy’s to our week 11 winner!

Congratulations also goes out to our week 12 Vick Dog Chew Toy order winner. This week we are recognizing Susie of Keyportrt, NJ! Susie ordered her Official Vick Dog Chew Toy on 11/24/11. Congratulations Susie!

On to week 13! The Packer fans are still elated that their team remains undefeated and have secured a playoff bid! Along with Packer fans Carolina Care Bullies should also be excited. They won The Official Vick Dog Chew Toy Bark For Awareness week 13! Congratulations to Carolina Care Bullies! For their effort Carolina Care Bullies will receive 4 FREE Official Vick Dog Chew Toys for TD’s scored against the Eagles. Here is a brief description of that they do:

Carolina Care Bullies rescues pit bulls from euthanasia from North Carolina Shelters.
Our Week 13 Vick Dog Chew Toy order winner is Neal from Piscataway, NJ! Neal purchased his Official Vick Dog Chew Toy on 11/28/11! Congratulations Neal and a special salute from my home town!

Thanks again for all that support what we do for GREAT ORGANIZATIONS! I hope that my words inspire every reader to continue the fight to protect those that cannot protect themselves, to help those that others neglect and to continue the awareness of neglected and abused animals.

Thanks for all you do.

Vick Chew Toy - Pet Organization Support

http://www.vickchewtoy.com

I hope everyone had a safe and happy Thanksgiving Holiday!

Now that we have moved on from last Thursday on to the “official” Holiday shopping season I was recently reminded of a ground roots movement that surfaced again this year. Several messages have been launched about support for local businesses, especially those that do business over the internet. Sunday is the kick off to “cyber week”, a time where online orders are prompted and promoted.

I love the message about supporting local business. However, I want to encourage an expansion on the message. I would like to promote that all also consider support for local and national organizations that care for our neglected and abused pets.

Along with support of local small business merchants we must also consider organizations that do not sell, but rather support. There are thousands of them out there, many that we have helped recognize and support through our Bark For Awareness Campaign and other efforts. Small donations are so very valued by your local pet rescue groups and donations often make or break their ability to perform the valued services that they do each and every day.

As you make your Holiday shopping plans, I encourage you to keep your local pet organization in mind. If you can purchase from a local small business, please do. If you can donate to a local small organization, please do! A bag of food, a small cash donation, anything you can help with will help these great organizations to continue their service to your community.

As always, The Official Vick Dog Chew Toy will continue to promote and support these great organizations and celebrate those that help us give back. Please help us to continue to raise awareness of the impacts animal abuse and neglect pose to our beloved pets and do what you can to continue your support.

I want to thank our loyal followers for your 4th year of support for The Official Vick Dog Chew Toy. We continue our efforts through the unyielding love and dedication of Pet Lovers everywhere! Please continue to show your support.

Thanks for all you do.
