MP_the4pack Posted November 16, 2019 Author Share Posted November 16, 2019 Someone who is participating in the SS will contact you and ask you to ask their recipient what they like or don't like, and what their dog likes or dislikes. You then come onto this forum to ask that question without giving away the identity of the SS. While it is not required, it seems tradition has it done in the form of a poem. But many are just not poets, so you don't have to do it that way. Here's a quick cheesy example: Topaz and Mary, I've come your way, As Santa asked me on this special day To ask does Mary like chocolate and Topaz chicken I need to know as this plot thickens.... Ok, get the idea? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She like BIG toys she can drag around. The bigger the better she even pulls on the ground. We don't do Christmas, Hanukkah is our choice. For Christmas carols we have no voice. Miss Shine weighs 69, but she looks fine in a pinch. I would say her length is medium or a 29 inch. What ever Santa brings will make her happy and she would share with her brother as he gets yappy.

Oh sweet St Nick....I am sorry to say I had to send Bo to the rainbow bridge yesterday...my heart is broken, and I am dogless for the first time in 11 years. I don't want to mess things up so I will do it for my friend's grey Mookie. She is 7 yrs old, a small bossy brindle girl. She loves stuffies. She has no food allergies or limitations. She likes to go for walks and bark in the yard. I love tea any flavor but ginger or with hibiscus, and love dark chocolate, nuts (not pistachio or cashew) and sweets of course. I love popcorn too! I hope this helps. Quote Kathy, Bo (SK's Bozo), and Angels Storm (Greys Big Storm), Grace (Rise to Glory) and Sky(Greys Sky Dove),My dog believes I go to work for their food and treats.

Every once in a blue moon she'll grab a toy and toss it, then she's done. So I wouldn't worry about toys. But she's got all her teeth and loves food. I do stay away from rawhide and stuff not made in the USA. And she's very good at sharing. But her sister from Macau China is in renal failure (thus, no China treats) and is missing most of her teeth. I'm sure Santa will bring her sister plenty of her own special treats. Emma is about 25" long and 25" tall if I measured right. She's an average 60 lbs girl. I like food! Salty or sweet. A super severe chocoholic. (Candy, cookie, coffee, cake, hot chocolate, ice cream...you get the idea ) I do need to stay away from spicy hot. (Heartburn) I'm also travelling a lot now that I'm retired. And am big into gardening and home grown stuff. I hope that helps Santa. Thank you so much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
