BHD Under Attack…Again

It’s not uncommon for competitors to resort to despicable tactics in order to compete against Big Hairy Dog. Thanks to an international family of fiercely loyal customers, attempts at discrediting Big Hairy Dog are quickly discovered and reported to BHD Corporate. The most recent example comes from a company based in Seattle, Washington called CCS Retail Systems. The following appears on the home page of their web site: Amid charges of Fraud and a 5 Million Dollar deficit, Retail Pro, (aka Big Hairy Dog) et all (sic), declared Chapter 11 bankruptcy.

Apparently the not-too-bright and eager-to-discredit staff at CCS shot themselves in the foot in grand fashion by accusing BHD of
1) misleading the public that BHD is the development company of Retail Pro
2) accusing BHD of fraud
3) misleading the public regarding BHD’s financial stability
4) BHD is in Chapter 11 bankruptcy.

When confronted with the information BHD president Mick Malaney thanked the customer(s) who found the information via Google search. “Obviously, libelous comments such as the ones CCS posted on their website can injure BHD’s hard-won reputation as well as prevent BHD from earning income.” Malaney went on to question the validity of a company which would resort to such extremes. “As a consumer when I discover a lie has been exposed I discredit the products and services represented by that company.”

CCS’s website states that the company sells a point of sale program called Counterpoint.

Watch as BHD 'Wish Child' receives her dream come true

It's always rewarding to donate to an organization for children, such as the Make-A-Wish Foundation. It is even more personal and heart-warming to see a child whose wish you were able to grant, as they receive their wish being realized.

One of the BHD Make-A-Wish kids was part of a group of Mothers and Daughters who are featured in Oprah's April, 2009 edition of the "O" Magazine. There's also a great video clip available on the internet, which shows the children and the outstanding people who made this wish come true.

Visit the link below to watch this video clip and experience the joy with the young ladies and their Mothers as they receive their wish...and even more!! We hope you'll enjoy this as much as we do here at Big Hairy Dog.
