<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><strong><span style="color: red;">Paws for thought: </span></strong></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">When you’re ticked off and things get ruff, </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">get a new leash on life </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">and have fun with a dog.<br /> These Frisbees are sturdy and durable: Fun for a dog to catch.</span><br />
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">They also have a handle-lip deep enough
to play tug.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">
<span style="line-height: 115%;">It is a very easy spiral pattern and
can be made in about an hour. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">
<span style="line-height: 115%;">You can personalize the Frisbee with
the dog’s name <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">
<span style="line-height: 115%;">or add appliques like bones or paw
prints.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">
<span style="line-height: 115%;">So go fetch your hook and yarn and
ruff one out in no time.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">
<span style="line-height: 115%;">Enjoy!<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
