| How many of you would pay for doggy kisses? Strange question I know. but there is reason behind my insanity. You see, I have started working for a dog rescue. We are planning a big event for the end of October to raise money for the rescue ( vet bills, food, etc.). Were planning on a lot of fun things. local bands and entertainment, games, a dog costume contest, food and lots more. well one of the things a volunteer thought of for the event was a "DOGGY KISSING BOOTH" People would pay 25 cents, 50 cents, no more then a dollar to get doggy kisses from a cute pup. My Athena would likely be one of them as she LOVES ALL PEOPLE and LOVES TO GIVE KISSES. In fact we have to usually hold her back from doing so. I would dress her up in a pretty dress and bow in her hair and she could doggy kiss anyone who came to get it. but the question I have is, as cute of an idea as this is, would people really PAY to get a doggy kiss? What are your thoughts? |

| lol, that is really a cute and unique idea. When it comes to rescue donations almost anything goes. I would pay, I love doggie kisses, and who would not want some wonderful yorkie kisses from your adorable lil Athena all dressed up. I vote go for it.

| Figure it cant hurt right? Not like well have to pay a lot of money to set it up. Just a table, a paper banner and the cute dogs who like to give kisses |

| At the Orange Pet Expo last april one of the pit rescues had a pit kissing booth. They raised quite a bit of money. They also sold buttons and t-shirts that said something about kissing a pit or dog and liking it. It was cute. Personally I would rather have a yorkie kisses. I think you should do it! |

Its a Pit Bull Rescue that I work for. We would have Pits at the kissing booth to, but not limited only to Pits ( hense Athena) Possibly my foster ( who is a pit bull) may be there to. but he's a bit stingier with his kisses.. The founders Pit bull is HUGE, like 85 pounds with a huge head, but is a big baby and loves giving kisses. We decided it would be good to have a little cute dog like athena to for those who are leary to kiss a pit. Last edited by R-Teddy; 08-16-2014 at 08:58 PM. | |

| I would pay! I don't think $1 is out of the question. Especially since the money goes towards helping dogs. It would be worth it to me and probably any other dog lover. |

| I think booths of Pitties would be wonderful for this fundraiser! They put their all into giving the biggest, sweetest, sloppiest kisses! Wash down your whole face! I'd pay $5.00 for one anytime.

| If you have the gadgets to pull it off, maybe you could make extra money if you took and printed out a picture for each of them to purchase and keep as they are being kissed by the dog. I know I'd like to have a keepsake picture of a Pittie or Yorkie or whatever kind of dog kissing me at a charity doggie kissing booth!
