How To Say Thank You

Lady May waits, oblivious to the new
set of wheels that has arrived
Sometimes there isn't enough ‘just right’ words to express how the heart feels. Gratitude is a feeling!
A deep, warm, full emotional, heart felt feeling. There are people in this world who just ‘do’ for others. Many of them don’t even recognize or acknowledge that they are being true heroes to someone.
I have been very privileged to know more than my share of this type of people. I am truly grateful for them all. Today I have a new team of people to add to that wonderful list!

Thank  you to all the moms and dads who bring their best furry friends over to visit and stay with us at Royal K9 Korner.  We saved and with your dollars we were able to purchase Lady Mays' Wheels! 

Thank you
again Cache Creek veterinarian, Dr. Q. Gavaga DVM and staff! You helped us start the ball rolling. You assessed Lady May's physical condition and current strength.  You took the very first, all important measurements. The little cardboard caliper we made was no match for your accurate steel professional one.

Thank you
to my daughter Kathi Mathwig and neighbour Melissa Roque. You made yourselves available to come by at the drop of a hat to help us hold, measure and take the multitude of photos for the required measurements to build Lady May’s wheel cart. It took a few times but we did it!!
The measurements were sent in, accepted and The Team of Eddies Wheels set to work on designing and building a just right fit cart for our Lady May.

Thank you Ed and Leslie and Chris Grinnell  for creating the concept of the amazing carts you build at Eddies Wheels! Thank you for putting in all the years of perfecting your service! Now we benefit from them.
Your entire  team goes to work everyday and designs, creates/builds a brand new specifically designed wheel cart for a lucky recipient. We are thrilled that Lady May is now one of those recipients.

Thank you to the specific people we spoke to at Eddies Wheels Jill, Leslie, Sue, and Chris.
You made it an easy purchase.
We felt your empathy when we struggled to provide the accurate measurements. I worried Lady May would not be a candidate for a wheel cart. You walked us through the measuring process, making sure we sent appropriate data for our little Lady May. You've never met her, yet listened well to our explanation of her curved back and crocked little leg. You made suggestions for improving her cart to accommodate her body and dragging leg.

We thought we would be looking at the winter months before it would be built and sent all the way across the globe to our little town of Lillooet.
Thank you for designing, creating, building her cart and having it shipped at an unbelievable speedy fashion. We felt cared for and understood, from the very first inquiry email sent.

Please send a special word of gratitude to these highly skilled and selfless working group of people.
If you haven't already done so, 
PLEASE go visit their website and read this page. How Our Lives Went to the Dogs
They are an amazing TEAM of experts!

Thank you to the transporters for safely driving/flying the distance. Lady May's cart came all the way from the east side of the continent at Eddies Wheels facility in Shelburne Falls, MA to the far west side of Canada. It was safely delivered here in just 6 days! You Rock!

Wow that took no time at all between measuring and the finished product!
I can't wait to hear how Lady May likes her new wheels and adjusts to freedom! Hope the snow stays away for a bit longer so you guys can practice.
So happy for you guys!
