Dear Friends,

I hope that you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving day. All of us here at Small Dog Electronics in Vermont, Maryland and Florida send the most sincere wishes from our family to yours for a joyous and happy Thanksgiving.

We have so much to be thankful for and as a company our most important expression of gratitude is to you, our loyal and sustaining customers. We know it is ultimately you that pays our wages and allows us to continue to measure our success by the triple bottom line of People, Planet and Profit.

Our philosophy has always been to make customers for life, that a satisfied customer is not enough, that making you a part of our community is the goal. I know some of you reading this have been customers for a very long time. I still get some folks that remind me of the time they bought their first Mac in my living room on Prickly Mountain or of the time I waded through waist deep flood waters to get that dry iMac on the top of the floating stack.

Customers for life. Thank you. It is sometimes easy to forget or overlook all that we should be grateful for but there is so much. From the dogs that accompany us in our life journey, to others that stimulate our minds and make us think. This week the kids from Parkland High School here in Florida won the Desmond Tutu International Peace Prize. I have never seen a more heroic and inspiring group of kids and they fill me with hope and I am thankful for the brightness that emerged from their shared tragedy.

Enjoy your time off with your family and revel in Thanksgiving.
