You could win this custom Jeep

As most of you know by now, here at Dublin Dog Co, we’re all about good fortune and good luck. The only difference is, that we like to MAKE our luck happen. That’s right, being lucky is not only possible, but it’s a given when you make good decisions and work hard to make those dreams come true.

So on this St. Patrick’s Day I wanted to share a dream that we have for one of our Nation’s finest. Our non-profit sister organization, the Dublin Dog Foundation has launched our Canines for Comrades Campaign. We are currently raffling off this custom Jeep Wrangler at $20.00 a ticket to help a soldier back from Iraq or Afghanistan who has suffered an amputation while serving to protect our freedom! The donations received from this raffle will help us sponsor a service dog from Freedom Service Dogs to help this individual get back their freedom and their sense of independence. We can’t rely on luck alone to make this happen, we need your support! Please visit www.dublindogfoundation.org to see how you can MAKE a dog and a US soldier very, very , lucky. By doing so, perhaps your luck will change and you’ll be driving this one of a kind Jeep this Summer! “We should all be so lucky”  Happy St. Patrick’s Day to you and yours from the entire team at Dublin Dog Co and the Dublin Dog Foundation!

"Best new model we tried"

We are thrilled and honored to have been included in the April edition of Backpacker Magazine’s “Gear Guide”.  Dublin Dog Co is making a serious push in 2010 to go after more of a lifestyle market, for those folks who love the outdoors and enjoy making their dog(s) a part of that passion. And speaking of passion, we have been throwing our hearts and souls into new product development, new categories, and a fresh perspective on interacting with our customers. So thank you Backpacker Magazine www.backpacker.com, and thank you to our loyal customers who continue to give us wonderful and critical feedback. We are the LUCKY ONES!!!

All of us at Dublin Dog Co. are committed to helping put a little balance back in our lives. Our Re-cycle / Re-Gift program is designed to help us Re-focus our efforts to those in need, be that a dog in distress, or doing what we can to protect the natural resources of our environment. Simply return your old, damaged Dublin Dog collar and we’ll recycle the polymers and metal hardware and properly dispose the waste to protect our environment. Perhaps you’re ready to trade up for the newest fashion from Dublin Dog? Return your gently used dog collar (Dublin Dog or other) and we’ll re-gift that collar to a dog in need at local shelters and rescue groups. Either choice helps balance the equation and does something positive that you can feel good about. Be on the lookout for this logo on our homepage and the associated return form to submit your collar.

We will provide you with a coupon code for 15% off your next Dublin Dog “Original All Style, No Stink” dog collar. From all of us at Dublin Dog Co, thank you for your efforts. So what are you waiting for? Let’s Re-Focus our energy today, to make a positive change!

Every person who uploads a photo from now until Dec. 25th will receive a 10% coupon code via email to spend on the Dublin Dog website good towards the purchase of our limited edition “Winter Bliss” collar.(*coupon will arrive at the end of the contest) One lucky winner with the best holiday/winter photo will be chosen by the staff of Dublin Dog Co., & the Dublin Dog Foundation and will receive a $150.00 gift certificate to use at your discretion on the Dublin Dog website.

On behalf of the entire team here at Dublin Dog Co., we wish you lots of luck and joy during this wonderful Holiday Season.

The long awaited Winter Bliss Collar  has finally arrived, and it’s even cooler than we imagined. Why you ask? Because not only are these hand-filled collars beautifully crafted, but they offer new design elements that we are very proud of. First, each collar has an interior layer of reinforcement that runs the entire length of the collar from tip to tip, and around every hole. Secondly, you will find a new buckle that has rounded edges and a thicker, stronger, stainless steel center pin! Like old man Winter, these collars mean business.  However, like the beauty of snow, these won’t last forever. We’ve produced a limited supply for each color and size, and once they’re gone, they’re gone. We had 600 pre-orders before they ever hit the website. So act fast.  On behalf of all of us at Dublin Dog Co., we wish you a very Happy Thanksgiving week and we give thanks everyday for wonderful customers like you. Wishing you all the luck in the world…

Avail in Frostbite, Mistletoe, and Pink Ice

We love the guys over at Unleashed Unlimited and we throw out big “props” to Boomer for his aquatic acrobatics. Better yet, we love the neckwear he’s sporting for the agility.

Thanks again to the folks over at Unleashed Unlimited for sharing Boomer with us. Nicely Done!!!
