Is this still going ahead & is anyone organising it. I loved taking part the last 3 years. People need to send the organiser their name & address. How many dog's they have name of dog/s ages & likes & dislikes. Last year we also said if we were prepared to post abroad &/or post to more than one address if we had more than one dog involved. There was a limit of £5 per present too.

Clear as mud ain't it? ......I'm sure you will get the hang of it
and that's where it falls at the first hurdle because only members who support the site financially CAN use the PM system! And it isn't allowed to put email addies in even in there. Though I assume street addresses is OK but no one will want to put those on the open forum.

  • Say what your dog/s can't have
  • Say what sort of things they do like

Anything else worth noting?
Yes how do participating members get their street addresses to the other participating members (without displaying them on open forum - not recommended) if they cannot use the PM system?

Last year the PM system was open to all members to use. It isn't now.

£5 limit is usual for this stuff as it is only a 'bit of fun'.

Yes but as you have to NAME the people allowed to respond to it - I'm puzzled. Secret Santas are done on many website forums but it is usually all 'out in the open'.
