Last call for “Golden” naval oranges

I recently did a story about my special Golden puppy raiser pal, Pat Lawson. I am glad that it did not embarrass her too much. She is one amazing lady, that’s for sure.

Pat is a Golden lover after my own heart. She has raised nearly 20 puppies for various service dog organizations. Pat is shown here with her second CCI puppy “Bear” who graduated as a Skilled Companion in August of 2005.

Pat, currently Public Relations & Golf Tournament Director, is a charter member of the Valley of the Sun Volunteer Chapter of Canine Companions for Independence, named CCI’s Southwest Region volunteer of the year for 2005.

Pat has a mini orange grove in Arizona with oranges that are very special, actually growing at the base of the San Tan mountains, in soil that promoted incredible sweetness.

I am too embarrassed to tell you how many boxes I have special ordered, but let’s just say that I will be drinking orange juice for months to come lol. These totally organic oranges have been just wonderful and I am already on Pat’s list to get many, many boxes at next year’s season.

Pat has sweet navels available for ordering here: arizonanaveloranges.com

Now, is this pup a cutie or what?

Rick Redding submitted this photo last month of his sweet girl, Cyrie, a 5-month-old Golden delight. She loves exploring the snow in her new back yard in southwest Reno.

I especially love the holiday collar.
