THANK YOU to Burns Pet Nutrition

We wish to thank John Burns and Burns Pet Nutrition for very kindly donating puppy food for our lab X pups and then, again, for Kaleigh's babies.

Also many thanks for their continued generosity in supporting our Annual Reunions. (link to Reunion 2007)

Burns Pet Nutrition was possibly the first UK produced pet food to be free of artificial preservatives, colours and flavourings when it was launched over a decade ago. It was developed because of John Burns' concerns over the quality and type of ingredients being used in many commercial pet foods

MANY THANKS to all the other REUNION 2007 SPONSORS

Thank you very much to all the companies and individuals who helped to make our Reunion so special. We can't thank you enough for helping us.

The pastel portrait for the dog(s) who raised the most money goes to MEGAN and RICKY, helped of course by their Mum, Julie Granger, thank you so much Julie. The picture has been donated by the artist, thank you Merlene.
All the dogs names have gone into a draw for a chance to win their own pastel portrait, and the lucky one picked is "SAMMY" Denning, the Shiba Inu, from Tunley Dog Training Club. Well Done Sam.
(This was donated by Lynne Jones, in memory of the many dogs who have walked with us a while..........and brought us to where we all are now).
A special thank you also goes out to Sheena Brown, Ronnie Berganthal and Sue Frankcom who very kindly gave donations to IRR at the time of our Reunion AND especially to "Shawnee" Upton, who raided her doggie money box for us.
THANK YOU EVERYBODY

Burns Pet Nutrition, a thank you

We wish to thank you John Burns and Burns Pet Nutrition for your kind sponsorship of our 2006 Reunion. Our day was a great success. We managed to raise over £500 and still have to collect money for a sponsored down-stay. This money will go a long way towards our hefty veterinary bills as we've had quite a few poorly rescues recently who have needed/will need ongoing medical attention. Once again, a big thank you from all the dogs you've helped through your kind sponsorship.

Regards
Sandie

Thank you to our other Reunion sponsors
Thank you to all the other people who kindly sponsored rosettes and to Laughing Dog for generously giving us prizes of their food for our 2006 reunion. Thank you also to everyone who helped run the stalls, games etc and not forgetting our wonderful judges, of course. Thank you too to all the fosterers and adopters who came with their wonderful dogs. Thank you all very much
