ToeSox for a Cause
Some of the most important people here at SDHQ don’t pull orders or work with our customers. Their wagging tails and boundless love add a sparkle to our day—Sock Dreams wouldn’t be nearly as fantastic without our dogs. You’ve seen them in our product images, helping show off their people’s toes. Niqkita has blogged about them and most folks know about the Sock Dreams doggie queen, Lola.
Happy feet and wagging tails are important to us, which is why we are so excited to carry the first ToeSox for a Cause.
ToeSox has pledged a portion of the proceeds of their hot pink toeless ankle socks with grips to help animals in need. One of their models, yoga teacher Kathryn Budig, is the co-founder of Poses for Paws, raising money for animal shelters through yoga. Working with Poses for Paws, ToeSox is dedicating their donation to Sammy’s Place, a senior dog sanctuary.
Older dogs are hard to place in homes and Sammy’s Place aims to be there to give them a safe and loving place to spend the sunset of their years. We can’t think of a better reason to give the foot strengthening, hot pink ToeSox a try. We know our toes and paws love them.

aw… Queen Lola, sounds so regal…
but she’ll always be my little princess!
I’m wearing my pair of these now and do indeed love them, this style in general is one of my very favorites, I love having my toes out while still wearing socks in summer, they’re perfect for sock addicts =) Being able to help support a good cause by buying a new color of a fav sock is awesome!
Three cheers for Kathryn Budig!!!
Either way, she’s royalty!
I have a special soft spot in my heart for older dogs, and even though I tend to shy away from toed socks, I do love toeless, so I need to finally give this style a try, because it’s for such a great cause.
I would love to see more colors of toeless toesocks and especially ones without the grips on the bottom. I’ve recently started wearing Vibram Five-Fingers and toeless toesocks or no socks are my only options.

We’re hoping to see alot more options available as interest in Vibrams, and toe socks in general, increases.

Just wondering if buying the pink toe socks is still helping your organization? We are big animal lovers and any where that we can help we will. Thanx

@Rybyn—Yep, Sox for a Cause is still happening! Currently, ToeSox is donating proceeds of their Toeless Ankle Socks with Grips in Hot Pink to the Beagles Freedom Project.
