I was shopping for some horsie Christmas presents and was pleasantly surprised to see a number of items sporting the Cancer Cure pink ribbon and pink colour on their merchandise.

Some companies are having portion of the money from sales donated toward the "Cancer Cure". Noticed it on riding gloves, shirts, hats and WAHL clippers.

I think it is great that the horse merchandisers are recognizing the impact breast cancer has and that they are supporting a very large segment of their marketable demographics.

I've seen some department stores that support donations for the cancer cure. As a cancer survior those will be the ones I shop at.

The show gloves were quite neat. Black as expected but then pink material was added between the fingers so it would not be real noticeable when riding, but you still knew you had supported the cure. They were being promoted by some big name dressage rider, sorry but I did not retain her name n my slipping memory.

I wish I was in need of new clippers as I would have liked to have bought the WAHL clippers but could not justify the cost so close to Christmas on something I really don't need.
