FUN THINGS HAPPENING FIND YOUR PET’S LITTERMATE At 10:45 AM we will be holding a “FIND YOUR ADOPTED PET’S LITTERMATE” contest in the Main Ring. If you adopted a puppy or dog who had littermates, you are eligible to play. Make sure you know your original adoption date and if possible any other siblings from your dog’s litter. Then you can all walk together during the “family walk” part of the event. A family reunion for sure! We adopted out 13 litters of 4 or more dogs this last year and all have been invited to participate today. K-9 DEMONSTRATION At 11:15 AM the MA Vest-A-Dog group will be offering a demonstration in the Main Ring.

PARADE OF ADOPTABLE DOGS A parade of adoptable dogs will be held at 12:00 PM in the Main Ring. Adoptable dogs from attending breed rescue groups and shelters will be shown. Let’s cheer them on! FLYING HIGH FRISBEE DOGS At 1:00 PM watch this Amazing demo by Mike Piazza of really talented dogs doing tricks and dances while chasing frisbees. Fun for all ages. Special Thank You to Panera Bread for all the yummy bagels today!! Stop by the foodcourt! Katie and her family remember Tallulah Our Tallulah died January 27th. Her rear legs had become suddenly paralyzed because there was an inoperable tumor pressing on her spine, and the only option was to put her to sleep. Tallulah was a sato from Puerto Rico whom we adopted 6 years ago. She had been hit by a car while pregnant; and a police officer brought her to Save a Sato, who nursed her back to health. After not being adopted for a year, she was sent to Buddy Dog, where we met her and fell in love. Tallulah was a feisty, gregarious, fun girl who made everybody smile. We know she’s in Heaven with the puppies she lost -- washing cats and chasing squirrels on her 4 perfect legs. We miss her terribly!

The Zelle Family Remembers Skippy Skippy was once a courageous dog. But in his youth he launched himself over a half wall beside a second story staircase, and he abandoned bravery as he skidded gracelessly across the carpet. Skippy was once a destructive dog. But soon all stuffed animals in his household had lost their plastic eyes and noses and lost their appeal. Skippy was once a fiercely protective dog. But after torturing the puppy Kirby for months, he welcomed a familiar companion to his side. Skippy was once an adventurous dog. But eventually the allure of the unknown lost its appeal and he preferred to trot along trails beside those he loved. Skippy was once a fast and athletic dog. But in his old age, he contented himself with leaping onto beds and couches rather than over backyard fences. Skippy was once a restless dog. But the comforts and warmth of human feet beneath him soon overpowered the urge to pace through the night in search of mischief. Skippy was once a loyal friend. And though he no longer peers surreptitiously around the corner as I enter the front door, I will always see him in my memories. Because they are a part of our families............... Certified trainers offer you obedience, fun and socialization for your family dog. * group lessons * private lessons * behaviour consultation * customized training programs * Dogs and Storks Discounts for Save A Dog Adopters Hudson, MA 1.508.243.3922 **Save A Dog adoptees always get a discount at Family Dog Training** “If there are no dogs in Heaven, then when I die I want to go where they went.” ― Will Rogers A Part of the proceeds from today’s event will go towards treating Heart Worm Positive dogs we take in over the next year.
