-- The Support DK Contest is Now CLOSED --

But you can Support Doodle Kisses here:  http://www.doodlekisses.com/page/support-doodle-kisses

The time has come!  Here's your once-a-year chance to support DoodleKisses.com and get a chance to win some great prizes.

Here is the link to the contest announcement and $ goals.

First two new supporters who also comment below will get their choice of a DK mug or water bottle from CafePress.  (Go, go, go!)

All other supporters will be entered into a drawing to win one of the following:

The Grand Prize:  A custom Doodle sculpture from Augdiggitydog (our own member Kathryn L. Defibaugh!)
1. One DK T-shirt
2. One DK Mug
3. One DK Water Bottle

And... the grand poobah of prizes:  Our very own (retired) Hopeless Doodle Addict trophy!  This prize is not being given in the drawing but being given to the person who contributes the most in the next 24 hours.  Yes, you can own, forever, the trophy that has traveled around the world many times visiting Hopeless Doodle Addicts and their dogs.  You will also receive a copy of the HDA diary that accompanied the trophy on all it's travels and a mileage certificate showing how far it has actually traveled.  Own a piece of Doodle history, win this contribution war!  :-)

What you MUST do to be entered:

After you have gone to the payment page YOU MUST RESPOND TO THIS DISCUSSION to be entered.  Your comment should say “I support Doodle Kisses because... [this is where you lavish praise on the experience here, your fellow members, their dogs, my children, you get the idea]”.  All members who are current subscribers do not need to subscribe again.  Just post your “I support DK because…” comment and you will be entered. (Just check to make sure you are actually still subscribed since PayPal stops subscriptions when your card expires.) 

 

Please put your Doodle Kisses username in the comments of your PayPal payment so we can know who you are.  :-)

 

SO...without further ado, here is the voluntary subscription info:

Remember to come back here and comment "I support DK because..." to enter for prizes.

 

Thank you so much for making Doodle Kisses wonderful and possible!

PS.  Here is more detail on the process for ‘winning’ the HDA trophy.  It will be awarded to the person who gives the largest donation over the course of the 24 hours of the fund-raiser.  We will keep you updated on the highest current amount (although we won’t tell you who it is).  Here’s an example.  One member makes a donation of $50 to DK.  They are now the leader and would get the HDA trophy if no one else donates higher amount.  We announce in the comments that the highest donation donation is $50.  Some other member then donates $60!  We announce that the current highest donation is $60.  But… the first member who donated $50 REALLY wants that HDA trophy!  So they donate $20 more to make their total for the day $70.  $70 is now the highest donation and would be awarded the HDA trophy.  We then announce the new total highest donation of $70 here in the comments.  (We realize now that this might cause us to stay up all night announcing new donations… we’ll do our best to keep the total current. :-)

I support Doodle Kisses because after adopting my Goldendoodle less than a year ago, my life has become centered around this adorable, funny, smart, silly, playful, charming, AMAZING breed!  At Doodle Kisses, I have gotten great advice, wonderful encouragement, many laughs, and a feeling of being part of a big doodle family!  I have learned that Doodles are like potato chips, you can't just have one!   Thanks to all the wisdom of multiple doodle owners, I feel that I will ready when we add to our family - and if I need support,  it is only a click away!

[Lori, Quincy & Frankie]

I support Doodle Kisses because it's members support me and each other with sound advice, soothing words, enthusiastic support and the best doodle stories and pictures on the internet!

I support Doodle Kisses because of the amazing friends I've made here.  I've also learned so much from some knowledgeable Doodle owners who have been so willing to share their knowledge.  This wonderful group of DK friends has gotten me through some pretty hard, scary times with my boys.  It's a warm, welcoming community that I'm grateful to be a part of.  Adina, I'm already a subscriber, but I would like to increase my monthly subscription...what's the best way to do that?

Top contribution for the HDA trophy is now $75.

Thanks for your support!

I support Doodle Kisses for all of the reasons listed, but also because I never would have made it through having liter mate puppies who were the first large dogs I ever owned.  I would have been feeding them crap, I would be broke because I would never have gotten pet insurance, I would never have gotten through CCL surgery without the expert guidance of those who went before me.  But most importantly, without DK, I never would have know the absolute kindness, love, and support shown by so many people whom I have never even met in person when we lost our sweet Sophie.  Miss AnnaBelle would not have found her way into our family and my heart, and Topper, Jett, Somer, Rufus, and Honey would not have passed through our lives and taken a piece of my heart to their new forever homes!  My girls have become such a part of who I am and what my life revolves around, and I know that without all of the guidance I've gotten here it would have been a completely difference experience.  Adina/Clark I thank you and to each and every person who has ever answered my questions or pleas for help, responded to my silly stories or provided love and support at some very difficult times, I thank you.
