Mod Dog of the Month



Name: Lemon Drop

Age: 2 years 6 months

Breed: beagle

Favorite toy: tennis ball/chuck it - he can play for hours and won't stop, he is totally fixated with it.

More about Lemon Drop: "I am not sure what lemon drop's story was before I adopted him other than the fact that he was surrendered to the government kennels which terminate animals after 4 days. Luckily Hong Kong Dog Rescue took him in and I adopted him July 2008. He is such a friendly dog and I couldn't imagine life without him now. These days he is most happy when he is either playing chuck it, riding in the car with the wind in his face or eating."

Support Haiti Disaster Relief


100% of the proceeds of the sale of each of these collars will go to Haiti disaster relief to the American Red Cross. I want to sell as many as possible to help this cause. If you don't want to buy the collar for your own dog, please consider giving it as a gift.

twit⋅ter: to utter a succession of small, tremulous sounds, as a bird.

This cheerful 1" traditional buckle collar features blue birds tweeting on a light lime green background. It is backed with a heavy nylon webbing and a strong plastic side release buckle and a D-ring for attaching tags. All collars are fully adjustable and triple stitched at stress points to prevent breaking and prolong durability.

1 year warranty on repairs unrelated to pet or owner misuse and on all metal hardware.

The Mod Dog of the month Runner Up (from November...better later than never)



Name: Normy

"She's called Normy because when we got
her she was 10 Kilo's overweight and my 4 yr old son said 'Woah Mummy she's
'normous!!!' 'Normous' was shortened to Normy and that's what stuck... Poor
thing!"

Breed: Weimaraner

About Normy: She was 2.5 yrs old when we rescued her and was a real handful.. She had a very very strong hunt drive and a big fear aggression and guarding problem when we were out and about, there were a number of occasions I had to wrap her lead around a tree just to hang on to her. We live in the country and she basically went wild for nearly a year then gradually, started to accept us as her new family and today (2 years on after a lot of blood sweat and tears of frustration!!!) she is the most WONDERFUL, gentle dog I could ever have dreamed of owning. She will always keep me on my toes but I wouldn't have it any other way, she's exciting but an absolute joy to train and work with now. Normy looks after us all beautifully and is an absolute
angel with children.
