Dear Mountain Equipment Co-op...




Dear Mountain Equipment Co-op,

My name is Viktor and I am a 7 year old Polish Lowland Sheepdog who lives in Nova Scotia.  I am writing regarding a “product replacement issue “ - and I hope that you might help me.

Last night I somehow got into the bathroom while my human was asleep.  In addition to finding a new roll of toilet paper which I promptly unwound and shredded, I discovered a pile of clothing ready for the laundry.  In that pile was a MEC green Cordova fleece jacket (size L) which my human received as a Christmas gift from her sister.  She has pretty much worn that fleece ALL the time.  Except of course when she is sleeping or it is in the laundry.  Anyway, I discovered that she had not yet cleaned out the pockets- and much to much late night craving surprise, found some dog biscuits in the pocket. Now unfortunately we canines do not have opposable thumbs, so we rely on our teeth to open things... I think you see where this is going...

My human awoke and found a bathroom in a mess, and her favorite fleece with a hole in the front. She was shattered.  She immediately checked your website to see if she could find a replacement.  She saw it in two “clearance colors” and would have even bought one of those (although she LOVES the green), but you didn’t have her size. She has a sinking feeling that this style is gone, but I am writing on the odd chance that you still have one.

I have her VISA card - and will gladly purchase one if you find it.  PLEASE let me know if you do.  PLEASE help to get me out of the “proverbial “ doghouse.  I should add that I have two canine brothers.  And I COULD blame it on one of them.  But who am I kidding? I decided to step up and take the blame.   Besides, if I CAN find a replacement, I’ll be a hero.

Thanks for taking time to read my letter.  I look forward to hearing from you.  

Deja vu.   Last year it was the down coat.  Never did hear back from that company, but then my human wrote that letter.  Maybe I’ll have better luck.  I’ll keep you posted....

Have a good one. Peace and paws up.
