Looks like Secret Santa is now a tradition on here and I'm happy to run it again this yr.  
We will have one new rule for it this year, to prevent sad huskies on Christmas morning from people who bailed without telling me you can only be a part of SS if you have over 100 post (same rule for HOTM), I'm really sorry if this excludes you this year, but we have had some flakes in the past that have ruined my trusting nature. You have till Nov. 18 to reach that #.

Here is the info if you want to partake in the holiday fun:)

Please PM me your name, address and dog/s names by NOV 18th!!!!! and I will get back to everyone by the 22nd or sooner.

I am suggesting a $20 limit for the family (not per dog, but if you want your free to go over, please don't go under or count shipping into the $20) remember it's all for fun and spoiling the dogs.

Once I have all the names I will then PM you who you will be gifting to, remember it's a secret so no giving out clues, OR asking other members who they have  
You don't have to celebrate Christmas to partake in the fun either its open to everyone, I can note in the PM to the person that gets you to stay away from x-mas themed stuff if that's what you want.
All the gifts should be sent in the mail by Dec 10, that gives it 2 weeks to show up, if you will be out of town or are in another country please just note that in your post so the person who does receive you will adjust the shipping date so you receive it in time. you can put your name on the return address, or not, if you don't please add your name to the inside package so the receiver knows who sent it. If you have an issue with shipping to another country please let me know a head of time.

It would be great if everyone could take pictures or video of your dog/s opening their gifts to share with everyone! we can post them in a new SS Reveal thread AFTER Christmas, that way we keep the secret. it would be nice to post on here that you did receive your gift (no name of sender) so the sender knows it showed up.

ok on to the fun, please post in this thread what your dog/s like/dislikes are so that whomever receives your pups will have an idea of what gifts to pick up.
When you receive the name of who you are shopping for come back to this thread and find the post about what they like to help with the shopping!

This will be a TON of fun and I hope you all have a great time shopping and wrapping and letting the dog/s do the opening!!!

let me know if you have any questions
