I am at a loss for words. I have shared the photo and the wonderful 'Kaytee' page on the Land of PureGold with my co-workers and many were brought to tears. She is truly my 'Special K'.

Our golden goodie package arrived safely and is wonderful! ─ Karen

Thank you so much for the lovely Lenox Golden Retriever! It was waiting for me when I returned home from my trip on Monday. It's beautiful and has a lovely place on my mantel in the living room. I love the pup and the note you sent, and the bookmark too! Thank you again! ─ Carol

What a great honor for my beautiful boy! I can't believe he got 3rd place. It will be a year on Thursday since I held my boy for the last time and it's a nice way to honor him. Thanks Rochelle. ... Hi Rochelle, Just wanted to let you know that I received my prize today. The watch is so cute! I love the happy little face on it. I'm sure Jared's going to try and convince me that he should have it . . . maybe we can share. Thanks so much for this wonderful gift and for having the contest. I love looking at all the golden smiles.  ─ Brandi

I am thrilled!! Thank you for choosing River. There were so many great smiling photos. I never thought that we would make the cut. What a job to pick ... and the first place winner is THE BEST! I love it. 

Today, my prize for placing 4th in the Photo contest, arrived. Thank you ever so much for the great bag. It sure will come in handy, carrying all that doggy stuff or going to market on a Saturday morning. Here is a photo of the bag and River...with a big smile.  ─ Maggie

I received my gift today. It floored me. And when I read the story about Dakota, I burst into tears. My Dakota is not perfect, friends have always said it looks like Dakota was made from spare parts, heads too big, legs too small. Know what? I could care a less. He's a great Golden, very protective of us one and all. I love Dakota beyond belief. He's mine now. I have a Maggie, and her story touched me. I can't thank you all one and all enough! What a special present! ... I rescue, I love Goldens no matter what. My guys bring me soo much joy.  ─ Mitch

Wow! Very cool. After seeing all of the great entries, I didn't think we had a chance. 

Thank you so much for the apron. Cahill thought he would try it on and help bake up some delicious liver muffins.  ─ Dynessa

How am I supposed to see all those golden smiles when there are tears streaming down my face? Tell me that? It was quite an honor to find Kenna's face making it into the top 10! Surely her unique way of 'posing' was quite unlike any of the others which must have captured your judge's attention. That incredible music is what really got me going though.

I  just opened the box of wonderful treasures and have tears in my eyes!! Wow. Bless you a zillion!! That is the cutest little thimble. I've never seen anything like it. And I can put my keys on a Golden Retriever tag now and get rid of the old nothing they hang on. The lion and the little toy and the book of Golden Days (what a special treat that will be to read) and the photo album -- WOW!!! You know, last night I was telling my kitty that I could not bear to start putting Kenna's pictures (I sorted them out from the nine years of photos to put in a special collection) in an album that night because I would cry the whole time. And now I have an album just for her instead of having to create something else. Cannot be coincidence!  ─ Jan
