Did that last week, O.  Thanks, though, for the reminder.  That is wonderful that Diane raised $600 for research.  It is good of her to take time to assemble a collage of our photos.

Took his picture and sent it.  Teddy was NOT happy. He wanted to play ball and I made him stop to put on the bandana and sit still for a picture. He looks pathetic.

Hi Kathy... you're such a mean mommy making Teddy do something he didn't want too ..... but THANKS!  I think it will be really neat to send Dr. Clark pictures of the dogs with the EPI Bandanas.


Julie... YES... Diane does so much for us...I don't know ho she finds the time to do all she does.... and the Bandanas turned out to be a a fabulous fund-raiser~

I don't think so.  I just went to Diane's site and it doesn't say.  I thnk she plans on doing something for next year, though.

$600 - GOOD FOR HER!!! :-)))))  Well...good for us all!!! :-))    Thanks Diane - I'm sending my pic now! :-)   Jackie is in a Valentines Fashion Show in a nursing home on Sat and they asked us to write a bio on the dogs.  I got some language in about her EPI and how we are trying to bring awareness to it to fund more research.  I never miss a chance to get this in so future and existing dogs can get the best chance possible.
