I am getting in a bit of a knot here with orders that I have on my list here, but that seem NOT to be in the order threads, but have come in via PM or email. As we get hundreds of PMs and thousands of emails, finding the right ones to let members know their items are ready can be a nightmare. I have started a thread listing items that are ready at: petcraftproject.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=sales&action=display&thread=12458I'll try to be more organised in the New Year.

Yes, we can but will need to also know the circumference of her chest at its deepest point; the circumference around the base of her neck; the type and colour coat that you would like - e.g. coat or raincoat, closed or open front; collar or not etc.

It's best to put the order in the order thread, as I'm less likely to mislay it there. (I am reknown for having poor memory that needs jogging at times. ) Available colours are: Bilberry check; royal blue; navy; burgundy; red; black; grey; forest green; fluorescent yellow; bright hi-vis orange and I can't recall what else, but some odd lengths in other shades may be possible if none of those suit.

~I'm now snowed in so I feel I must occupy myself by spending money.... Sorry to be a pain but... could I also know the colours for a lightweight fleece and do you still do the faux fur throws? If so how big are they? Thank You.

What colour do you want, and I will check availability when next at the workshop. As for faux fur throws, any of that fabric I come across, I'll make up and add to the auction, stating whatever the available size turns out to be, but the machines that sew those are broken down and awaiting a chance to get them to the repairer! We are also largely snowed in here, too! The council is almost out of grit, which means they will forget this village exists, as usual.

A green, brown or blue fleece would be good in that order of choice.

Just to update those of you who are awaiting orders... I got through to the suppliers a few moments ago, and a further part order of web, binding and fittings will be despatched to us today for 24 hour delivery tomorrow. However, they still haven't received soe of their supplies, and are starting to think a shipment has fallen victim to pirates! They are in much the same state as me, and tearing their hair with frustration at the delay. I can only apologise to those of you waiting for orders. Will see what tomorrow brings, as they have offered to enclose some possible substitutes they think might be suitable. Fingers crossed, eh?

Pirates?

Post by Old Dragon (Al) on Feb 4, 2010 14:14:46 GMT 1
Yes, as I understand it, some of their supplies come in on container ships, and pirates are active in some areas. However, I have just got off the phone yet again with the suppliers and the webbing will definitely be with then tomorrow. Whether they will be able to get anything out to us before early next week remains too be seen, though. As some of the substituted fittings they sent us, although useable for other things, won't suit the purpose required, I thought to check what remained on our back order... and it seems much of that had been deleted! I am hoping they have managed to undelete it all now, but have that niggling feeling... Fingers crossed...

I went dog walking at Milton Keynes rescue this morning & saw the owner, Eve, who would like to say thank you very much to TRPD for the items she has received.
Anyone who remembers the Happy & Shamrock appeal from the Oldies Club may like to know that I ended up fostering little Happy for 3 weeks before taking her to her forever home a week ago. The two lovely handknitted blankets I won in TRPD quizzes went to Happy's home with her & her new Mum was delighted to receive them.
Very sadly Shamrock died before making it to a new home. He had a suspected internal bleed. We thought it fitting that his friend Happy who was rescued from the same awful home should have his blanket.

I am a bit lost again - can somebody tell me please if there are still collars & collar packs for sale or is everything either special order or to be bid for in the daily auctions now? Apologies for possible dimness here!
Can you understand people handing their dog in to rescue and standing there in front of you removing the collar & lead? Beggars belief, grrr!

I can make you up a pack of collars, if you don't mind what colours? Just let me know the width and lengths needed, how many etc.
Ther's a pack of 10 x 1" comfort web ones is available here is assorted sizes/colours and at £30 inc., if that helps?

Hi there
My first time on here so forgive me if I'm in the wrong bit or not doing it right!
I would like to order 2 X "I NEED A HOME" harnesses in black/yellow to take out as a gift to a rescue in Spain with a very large expat community. I'd like one small (say Westie size) & one medium (say staffie/springer size). I need them by the 15th March posted out to Essex.
Is that possible please and if so just let me know and I'll Paypal the funds.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Sharon

If you look in the Auction Club forum, as listed on the index page, there are two medium ones listed there. I hope to amke up some more soon, too.

Milton Keynes rescue thanks TRPD for 2 lovely collars - recently won by me in quizzes Hopefully Henry Labradoodle will not slip out of the blue navaho one, unlike his existing collar which is much too big. He's a skinny boy, stressed by kennels
