    Let's do a collar exchange! (by keedokes)

    The fine weather is out and lots of us our taking our furry friends out to picnics and parades--where, really, they have to look their best, don't you think?  Smile  So in the spirit of socialization--is anyone up for a collar exchange?  I figure we can agree to spend $12 or less (or make a collar) and everyone can get a new accessory for their pals.  I know that some people have multiple dogs, but we'll each agree to send out one collar, and if someone with multiple dogs wants to get more than one collar, then they have to go in more than once--agreeing to send collars to more than one person. 

    If you're all interested, lets say the deadline for signup is June 28, so maybe we can all get the new collars by the Fourth of July.  If you're signing up, let me know of your interest, your dog's collar size, and your address via pm.

    Can we pick who we send a collar to? 

    • Gold Top Dog

    I'm interested if there are enough people in by tomorrow or so. I'm going to florida and will have no internet access for a week, by then it would be too late to get my collar there on time.

    • Gold Top Dog

    The idea is that you just end up with a random person, and then hopefully have them mailed out by the first of July.

    I'm interested.  I just bought a collar that I can't use b/c it's the wrong size, so it's brand new.  I also have a few like-new collars I've bought and used once or twice and never again.

    Is this like a random draw or will we know?  ie, how to we ensure the collars are the right sizes? 

    • Gold Top Dog

    I am interested as well.

    Interested but I'm in UK Sad

    Could we do a UK swap sometime? Or are there not enough of us to make it worth it?

    If you guys PM me your address and dog's collar size, I can make sure that you (as the sender) are notified of their your intended recipients, etc by Monday morning (the 30th).  I'll just do a random match with slips of paper or whatever, and let people know where they're sending the collar and what size they need to send.

    If you already have a certain size of collar (that someone gave you and doesn't fit, or like liesje said, purchased and doesn't fit) and want to send that, then let me know what size you want to send and I'll do my best to make things work that way.  I can't guarantee anything, though, because it depends entirely upon who signs up.

    ALSO-- jode88 has given us an offer from her online store for collars.  This is her message (mods let me know if I need to remove):

    Hi,

    I just wanted to make an offer for anyone wishing to order their collars for the collar exchange from Fido's Fashion Collars.  I will offer 10 dollar dog collars and ship directly to their secret recipient for free.  They can use coupon code :  dogdotcom  for 13 percent off (that will make my 11.50 collars about 10 bucks) and I will refund their shipping.  I cannot make a coupon code for a percentage off and free shipping so I will just refund shipping.

    If anyone is interested, you can pm either me or her with the website from which to order.
