2nd Annual EASTER EGG & BONE HUNT - Sat., April 7, 2007

Well, even though the weather wasn't optimal, we had a great turn out and loads of fun anyway. About 30 dogs showed up, eager to have as much fun as their humans do at an Easter egg hunt. As is tradition, our Godfrey's "bunny puppy" gave the signal to start. What a fun for all! Once again, thanks to all who came out to share the fun!

Doggie parents were very patient, as they helped their furry kids understand what they were supposed to do during the hunt. The kids caught on quickly, as they picked up yummy biscuits and nosed or pawed colorful plastic eggs filled with prizes. After the hunt, we had many folks taking photos of their dogs with our Godfrey Easter puppy. Five people won the opportunity to have their photos posted on this page. Soemone must have been shy, since only four of them came up to us to get theri pictures taken. Many dogs won shopping discounts to be redeemed that day, so it was a shopping gala after the event.

The animal welfare organization we chose to collect for for this event was once again the Pets in Need Fund, managed by the Berks County Community Foundation to help rescued animals receive necessary medical care. We were a bit remiss in announcing this clearly, so the collection jar is still out at the shop for those of you who wanted to donate and didn't hear what was going on that day. Thanks to all who have contributed!

Of the occasion, Odie said:

"The Easter Egg hunt was a blast!
I loved getting to meet the other dogs, and even their owners.
It was a great way to celebrate Easter with friends.
My Grandmom bought me some yummy sweet potato treats, too!!!
I can't wait to come back to Godfrey's."

- Dana, a schipperke -

Here's what Dana had to say: "This is the second year I was at Godfrey's
for the Easter Egg/Bone Hunt. I'm getting better at this.
While my mommy was collecting eggs, I was eating the bones I found.
They were very good. I had a great time there and enjoyed having my picture taken."

- Barley, Golden Retriever -

Barley attended last year's hunt, too. Here's what she had to say: "I really enjoyed the egghunt and the Easter

bunny, but I'm ready now to go home and take a rest in my crate- See you all next year!

That's a pretty snazzy Easter bonnet!
