Even better, 10% of all winning bids go to Canine Companions, which provides trained service dogs to people with disabilities, free of charge. Their volunteer pilots fly future service pups to their raisers, so we're proud to send a little love their way. 🐾

Bidding closes Friday, October 16 at noon. Winners pick up in person at The Downwind by October 23. We can't ship, so this one's for our local crew. 🏆
