Auction Rules:
1. Bidding will run TUESDAY at 8AM until THURSDAY at 4PM. (Bids must be above the listed bid increment.)
2. Email your bid to inza@dvgrr.org
3. Check back often to see if you are the high bidder. High bids will be shown as first name and last name initial. (Bids will not be updated between 8:00 p.m. and 8:00 a.m. and you will not be notified if you are outbid.) We do our best to keep bids updated in the last few minutes of the auction. Final bidding on Thursday ends at 4:00 p.m. Winner is the highest bidder, or earliest received tied highest bidder, and winners will be posted after the close of the auction.
4. DVGRR will not accept bids asking for DVGRR to increase a bidder’s amount up to a maximum dollar amount for them (e.g., reserve bid like you can on eBay or similar). The only bids we will accept and post are the actual bid amount you want posted. NOTE: We process bids manually, and in order to keep 100% of the proceeds going to the DVGRR dogs, we are not using third-part auction software or applications. Your understanding about this is appreciated.
5. If your bid and another bid come into DVGRR at the same time or overnight, only the highest bid will be updated on the website.
6. Winners will be notified by email!
Item 1: Start Thinking about Fall
The summer has been busy, so it’s time to start thinking about fall decorating. This cute canvas art features two Goldens. End of a summer day means taking a nap on this cute, “I sleep with dogs” pillow. The tiny dog pillow(dog toy) is for decorating the doggie’s bed, and it states, “Home is Where the Treats Are,” so we’ve included a treat jar and treats for your pup along with the exclusive Maggie logo Hugglehound dog toy. The caramel popcorn is for you as well as the mug, dish towel, photo frame, and key/leash rack, and logo magnet.
