Belk Charity Sale

Welcome to Belk Limo says.
Southeastern Greyhound Adoption is participating in the Charity Sale at Belk through May 2nd...Tickets are only $5 and entitle you to $5 off your purchase on May 2nd and also get you in a raffle on May 2nd to win a $1,000 dollar shopping spree at Belk!
So my friend Dawn has been selling these tickets for over a week now and me and the dogs met her up at Belk tonight with her daughter Savannah, the sale guru. I know we were trying to raise donations for the greyhounds, but Limo had to tag along because I felt guilty leaving her at home. She growled a few times at Tom Haygen the other GH, but for the most part she was good and was a good lure showing off her odd self. Course I brought the camera so I could take pics of dogs in a department store. This outing really made me realize how far both Limo and Peanut have come. Limo wasn't afraid of the children wanting to pet her nor any of the odd set ups, she just took it all in and thought everyone was there for her. I really thought Peanut was going to be a huge whiner about the whole thing and cry for each person's visit, but she was quiet the whole time. Savannah was the big seller of the night and did all the "leg" work. She took Peanut all around the store and solicited ticket sales while Dawn and I kicked back at the table and chatted:-) we both laughed and agreed that we aren't "people people"that can just talk to strangers easily. As we sat at the table a mom and 2 kids came in and Dawn and I smiled and said Hi, but there wasn't anymore contact- she didn't really seem interested and we didn't press it... well not 5 minutes later I look over and see Savannah and Peanut standing with the same people and mom writing out a check:-) Damn that girl can sell, LOL.
Peanut was the embarrassment of the night though:-x During her fourth lap around the store she pooped! Bad dog! And we had just taken them out to poppy not 15 minutes or so before...I was standing up front with Tom and Limo and Savannah came running up to me and told me what she'd done. We swapped dogs and she disappeared to go tell her mom. Then a sales lady came up to me and told me if I knew that one of the dogs had had an accident and I said yes that it was being taken care of...she was not happy to say the least and not a dog person! So I asked another sales lady for a "baggy" and went to look for the poop. I found some remnants by another sales lady -she must of been the look out person...Dawn had already cleaned up most of it, but had gone back to the bathroom for more towels. I said I was soooooooooooo sorry my dog did that and she said "Oh, nothin I haven't seen before", LOL, I said yes, but I'm sure you haven't seen it in the store! She was nice about it, the other lady was not.


I think Limo should be the next Clinque model, don't ya think?

Of course Limo should be the official greeter at the Clinique displays and how about 'the pooper' being the spritzer/spokesperson for perfume! Sounds like you had a great salesperson, hope you make lots of money for your cause. The dogs are really cute.

I've always thought dogs would make the make-up areas a lot more appealing - Limo would make a great spokesmodel :)

Great photos - it must have been fun to have the dogs somewhere they dont' normally go - well, execpt for the poop incident!!

I'm a terrible salesperson too - nice to have someone around that can do that with ease!!

Sounds like it was a success! I loved the pictures - was like I was there with you.

oh my god, it's poop. please. kids crap in stores all the time. nappies are left in change (not nappy change) rooms. a dog does not poop with malice.

want me to go kick her? i will. let me at her.

but other than the woman who needs a kick from katy, it sounded great.

How fun! I've been to Germany a few times and dogs can follow their owners into stores, restaurants, trains, etc. I always return wishing I could do the same with mine in the states!

The black and white greyhound looks a lot like my Jatamer. Iruska All Star sired him and Bipi is his dam.

Good day, sun shines!
There have were times of hardship when I didn't know about opportunities of getting high yields on investments. I was a dump and downright pessimistic person.
I have never thought that there weren't any need in large starting capital.
Now, I'm happy and lucky , I started take up real money.
It's all about how to select a proper companion who uses your money in a right way - that is incorporate it in real deals, parts and divides the profit with me.

You may get interested, if there are such firms? I'm obliged to answer the truth, YES, there are. Please get to know about one of them:
