Secret Pals August Theme Gift

Well, we are now into the 2nd month of the Secret Pal game this year and this month's theme is "Dog Days of Summer" Some people have asked me for suggestions so here are a few: Does your pal have dogs or like a particular breed? How about a stuffed version of their favorite. (I have Beagles, just in case any one is interested LOL) or a ceramic figurine of that dog? "Dog Days of Summer" generally refers to the hot hot hot days, so how about something to help your pal cool off---like a nice folding fan? How about a restaurant gift certificate so they can sit in a nice air-conditioned place to cool off? Or use your own imagination and come up with something really exciting! Just make sure that you ship the gift so that your pal RECEIVES it by the last date of the month! Good luck and remember to post thank yous on the board when you receive your gifts and ecards and such so that your pal knows that you have received the gift and that you appreciate their efforts.
