I'm Sprung!

hi every bloggie!

 I'm always springing forward but I hope you did today too. 

I just want to thank Shiloh n' Diva Shasta for donating to our NYC Half Marathon Charity Pencils of Promise again.  

They are the winners of the cool gift basket!  Lots of good stuff in there.  

S and S please send me your addy again.  

Okay. More daylight is here  

It only means more time to monkey around. 

Toodles. Love. Nordude

Backcountry K9 Gift Card Giveaway

Hi Every Bloggie!

I have exciting news! 

You know I always wear the coolest gear.

For instance, see my new Ruffwear Sun Shower jacket!

I walkies and run in it. Rain, sleet, snow, it doesn't matter. We had it all this week. 

It keeps me dry! Waterproof tested. 

Here's a body shot! It has a clip for a light and wraps underneath to cover my under carriage. 

So where do I buy my outdoor gear?

Well I buy my gear from Backcountry K9   

http://www.backcountryk9.com

They have excellent products and quality service.  One time I missed the 20% off sale by a day and they gave me the discount anyways.  Yah, that kind of quality service. 

Another great thing about Backcountry K9? They are supporting my fundraising efforts for my NYC Half marathon charity  by donating a $50 gift card to raffle off. 

I'm stunned too! How cool is that! 

Here's what you need to do. For every $10 you donate, you will have one entry to win the $50 gift card. For example, you donate $10 = 1 entry $20= 2 entries $30= 3 entries. You get it right? 

On Sunday Feb 23rd we will announce the winner by 12 noon EST. We'll use a random name selector to pick the winner. 

Here's our donation page http://fundraise.pencilsofpromise.org/fundraise?fcid=291802

Help raise money to build schools and get in it to win it!

Help me fundraise for a great cause and get a chance to win free cool gear! 
This winter, you need it! 

Toodles!

Gosh! I have big big news!

This week I'm raffling off prizes to peeps and dog blog pals who help out.

You guys know I run and walkies all the time. Every day I log miles for Charity Miles to earn money for different charities. Last year I logged over 1000 miles!   So one of the Charity Miles organizations, Pencils of Promise  emailed me. They said we were one of their top walkers and offered a race entry to the NYC Half Marathon Pencil of Promise team. We were so honored, we accepted immediately! So being on the team, we did commit to raising $2000. The money raised goes to building schools in areas of need. Giving a gift of education! 

I'm helping out. I'm training with my momma. See! Even in the super cold temps, I make sure she gets her training run in with me

Better yet,  I'm also helping out with raising donations! 

Every day this week, I will raffle off a prize to any one who donates (any amount) on the day of the prize posted. My friends at MetLife gave me a few fun Snoopy prizes. Snoopy is still brand new so he's hanging out in a bag.  Here's the best news.  On the day you donate, you  get your chance to win.  Sunday's Snoopy prize is Red Baron Snoopy.  Enter and Donate today!  (any amount is fine)

Here's my donation page

See me, the Nordude runs for more than Dunkins!. But munchkins do help. 

Every day is a different prize so stay tuned and donate! 

Thanks every Bloggie!
