Congratulations to all the Hood and Portland to Coast teams! You made it! Now it's time to recover and regroup for your fall season.

Whatever your passion, all of us at Gallagher Fitness Resources are here with great advice and a store full of products to help you achieve your goals and keep you moving forward!

Jasper relaxed
Hi, I'm Jasper, Director of Greetings and Sales.
 
The month-long September D.O.G.S. special is 25% off all in-stock PUMA shoes and 30% off all PUMA Apparel. Also look for 30% off selected men's and women's apparel items while supplies last.

September 20th is Jasper's BIRTHDAY PARTY!

Join me for my special Birthday PARTY! My 13th Birthday is Tuesday September 20 and I convinced the GFR Crew that we need lots of people to celebrate with this wise old dog!  

 

As D.O.G.S. I know the best way to get people to show up:

ALL ITEMS IN THE STORE WILL BE 13% OFF ON MY 13th BIRTHDAY. No other day. No exceptions. And no combining other discounts or coupons. If it is in the store, and you wish me Happy Birthday you can fill your bag and take 13% OFF! [Please do not bring any treats or gifts for me. While I like stuff as much as any old dog, I really want you to benefit on my birthday.]
