Good News!!! Brenda has a brand new Easy Walk Harness thanks to "lucyursa." They are so nice to use and I know Miss Brenda will be very excited to have it.....not to mention how fashionable she will look. Thank you lucyursa!!!
(this is a great new program that Isolde, BF gift shop manager and lover of Lodge Dogs has started. You can purchase an Easy Walk harness from the gift shop at a reduced cost and designate which Lodge Dog it is for - Isolde has a list of those who need one - the caregivers measure the dog and the harness is marked with the dog's name and delivered to them.)
what an excellent idea! way to go isolde! and donors!
that is a FABULOUS program, and I love Easy Walks- can Isolde or anyone else post it somewhere on the Network which doggies are in need?

The original post was under Layla at the Lodges. Jeanne posted for the caregivers I think 7 names and sizes. they went fast, so I asked if anyone else needed them and Jeanne posted another 5 names. They have all been taken care of too! Maybe we can get Jeanne to find out if anyone else needs them! When I called a little while ago to pay for mine, they also gave me a 30% discount since we were buying for the sanctuary dogs. Great deal for all involved!

I just checked and the gift shop currently has 8 dogs on the list. You can purchase an Easy Walk for one of them by calling the gift shop at 435-644-2001 ext. 4144.
(My office is in the back corner of the Welcome Center which is how I find out this stuff :-))
I called in a little while ago to get the Easy Walk for Ballsey and Jagger and was suprised with the discount. This is a fabulous idea and I hope there will be more postings like this. It is really great to be able to help out. Also, I read about the BIG BALL the horses are playing with, does anyone no where this can be purchased? I would love to be able to get them one. Thanks.

If someone can send me the list of dogs and sizes for the halters I can post a "Needs" list at the top of the forum. I will include other items as well if you can think of any. I'll just keep it glued near the top of the forum so it's easy to find.

I have just created a "Wish List" thread that will stay near the top of the Forum. I will try my best to keep it updated. If you would like to let me know when you've fulfilled a "wish" I will post it on the list. Thanks in advance for being the best "fans" on the Network. The Lodge dogs sure feel the love.
WISH LIST
Hi:
Does anyone know if Ballsey and Jagger got their Easy Walkers? I ordered red for both of them.
Thanks Kathi

Hi Kathi,
Whether they have been delivered, I can't say. But the fact they aren't on the wish listed I posted late yesterday afternoon would imply that they are at least on their way to the recipients. None of the dogs that you all posted about were on the new list. Maybe Jeanne will do a brief "harness" inventory and let us know.
Thank you Pat.
Robin and I will be picking up the new batch of harnesses at the Welcome Center this Sunday. I'll put on Jager's harness, and Terry (caregiver) will put on Ballsy's. Thank you so much!!! The Lodge dogs LOVE you!!!!
Thank you for giving me the opportunity to do this. You are all wonderful and I hope we will be able to do even more the Lodge dogs. How about a couple of pictures of Ballsey and Jager?
I plan to go to the Lodges to walk Brenda on my lunch hour on Sunday so can bring the harnesses up then if you don't want to make a trip to the Welcome Center. I'm planning to bring a camera so I can take a picture of one of the caregivers putting on Brenda's new harness.....and the photo will be up as soon as I get back to my office and get it to Pat (the forever manager of this forum.)
