I always love receiving photos of your pets in their new 'Swanky' wear and hearing their story, but this customer email is something special:"We just received our two new collars and absolutely love them. They are now being worn by two cougars: 6 year old Lakota (in photo) and 10 year old Ashukalee. They love it when they get new jewelry! Ashukalee wouldn't pose because she was strutting around proud of her new "bling."
Lakota and Ashukalee both were rehabilitated by me from near death illnesses and now live a happy spoiled life and do education programs to school children on endangered species. Lakota is a very special boy because he is an excellent swimmer. I cannot go in my pool without letting him join or he whines! He will stay in the pool all day and even dive to the bottom to retrieve toys. They are a handsome pair in their gorgeous collars. Thank you so much."
