As you may know, October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
Last year, Ganz made the Pink Poodle the POTM for October, and released it in a special packaging to raise cancer awareness.
A portion of the proceeds from the each Pink Poodle sold was donated to the Susan G. Komen for the Cure Foundation. Ganz also agreed to donate a minimum of 100,000 dollars to the foundation.
Ganz still has plans for this year:

During the month of October, when you purchase a Pink Poodle wearing a special tag (shown above) Ganz will donate a minimum of 2$ to the Susan G. Komen Foundation (in the US).
In Canada, these specially tagged Poodles will be available through the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation at various fund-raising events.
Nikki Yanofsky, a teen jazz-pop artist who performed at the Winter 2010 Olympics, has recorded a version of "I Dream In Pink", the MP3 of which can be downloaded for free when you adopt a Pink Poodle with the special tag. This makes her the first celebrity to record a Webkinz POTM song!
If you cannot purchase a Pink Poodle with the tag, or already own a Poodle, then Nikki's version of "I Dream In Pink" can be purchased from the Apple iTunes store.
