Boxer and Chow Chow and Aussie? Oh My!
  
When we adopted our senior dog Sky last year, the Toronto Humane Society listed her breed as Kelpie/Shepherd, which makes sense since she looks like that mix in her photo, right? (Kelpies are often black and tan.)
My hubby and I decided to get a Dog DNA test to find out more.
We swabbed her cheek and sent in the results. They were (drum roll please...)
... A total hodge-podge of breeds! The most predominant four were: Boxer, Chow Chow, Australian Shepherd and American Eskimo.
No matter her breed mix, she is our cutie-pie. Sky makes us laugh and smile with her silly antics. Her breed medley may be the reason she is still going strong at 13.5 years!
Get $25 in Free Groceries! But There's a Catch...
Loblaws is giving out $25 gift cards as an olive branch to customers who were angered by the grocer's admission that it inflated packaged bread prices between 2002 and 2015.
Want a gift card? Go to loblawcard.ca and sign up before May 8, 2018. Loblaws is limiting the number of cards it gives out, but does not say what their cap is.
Participating in the program also requires you to give up a lot of personal information, including your name, date of birth, address and other contact information — mainly because the company needs that in order to mail out the cards.
While data like that is a goldmine to retailers, Loblaws says it will not use the information for marketing purposes.
So, if you are okay giving Loblaws your personal information in exchange to get your gift card, sign up for yours before they are all gone.
