Pup’parel is commited to the support of animal rescue and other dog-related non-profit groups. As a part of this commitment, we will donate a full 10% of our customer's
purchases to the dog related non profit of their choice (selected from a list at check out).
Please note: Rasputin, AKA Razz L Dazzle, the former CFO of Pup'parel crossed the rainbow bridge in early 2010. We struggled with what to do about "Razzy's Choice" since his passing, and decided that we will continue to honor him by maintaining the tradition of "Razzy's Choice", with Onyo-"Husky"-Bandit-Dog doing the choosing from this point forward. Click here to view our Tribute to Razzy. We miss him, tremendously!
For those of you that aren't familiar with "Razzy's Choice", sometimes our customers don't have a preferred group to receive the proceeds from their purchases, so these proceeds go into a "bucket" for undesignated funds, which we refer to as "Razzy's Choice" funds. Twice each year, Razzy (our former CFO [Chief Food Officier]) would chose which dog related non-profit group would receive the "unspecified" proceeds from our customers' purchases. To ensure Husky’s choice is "random" he chooses a cookie that has one organization's name on it from a bucket that contains all on our list. Razzy’s only rule was that he could nnot choose the same group twice in a row! So Husky, Razzy's protege, will maintain that rule, too! On the off
chance that this should happen, he gets to pick again--(and, of course, eat a 2nd cookie after "Mom" removes the slip of paper)!
Razzy's Final Personal Choice's on 03-16-10
for "undesignated proceeds" from Q3 & Q4 2009 .....
Drum roll, please.....
Circle Tail in Pleasant Plain, Ohio
Circle Tail will recieve a check from Darnigold Forest (Pup'parel's parent company) in the amount of $145.27, plus (at their request) merchandise valued at $165.00.
Due to the loss of our beloved Razzy, we the Pup'parel pups and pup'people were more than a little distraught during the first part of 2010, which had a serious negative impact on our business. So, the next Razzy's Choice drawing won't be conducted until January 2011, but will include revenues for all of 2010.
Please email Xamidoo for information on how to get your favorite group added to our growing list of supportees!
