"Ursa took a lot of ribbons home in 2003 and I've saved them all wondering what I could do with them. Then I found Mia Hess who had designed a wonderful tote and wall hanging for my sister's agility dog, using several of her dog's best photos and ribbons. I knew what I could use my ribbons for, and had to have my own tote! My "Ursa Pursa" arrived, and I am so pleased with the beautiful design work, the excellent quality, and sturdy constuction! I take my tote with me everywhere! "

"I got my calendar today and it is amazing! I love seeing all the Chinooks .... We watched the CD over dinner and it was just as good. I especially liked all the yawns near the end. My son who is almost three thought almost every Chinook was Nanook. It was funny. Some do look alot alike. I can't wait to see next years calendar."
"I received the calendars today. Who are the November dogs camping? Georgeous! Nice job!"
"What an extremely beautiful calendar. We are watching the CD tonight. Thank you Chinookniks and what great artwork!"
"I received my calendars today. I've watched the CD three times. WOW!"
"Like many of you I enjoyed the incredibly clever health calendar I received BUT the CD is a real jewel. I watched it today and it is awesome..it is a "whos who" of the Chinook breed. You know the names... I was totally glued to my computer screen watching the DVD. It is an incredible archive of the Chinook breed. It is a must have."
