Dogs Helping People


I spent a wonderful Saturday at the "I Love My Dog" Expo held in Lincoln. This event was conducted by the Domesti-Pups organization, a volunteer-based organization that strives to improve the quality of life for persons with special needs through the assistance of animals and to provide awareness through education. They provide service dogs for persons with disabilities, pet therapy programs, classroom dogs and educational programs. What a great group!

I want to thank everyone who stopped by our Petlane booth. I was amazed at the number of people AND dogs that attended the event, and I'm already looking forward to next year! Mindy and I kept busy and were tired by the end of the day, but it was well worth it. Here are a few pictures from the day...

 
It was nice to have so much room at the event!

A lot of the dogs were showing off their best looks. Here are a few examples!


                                                                               
There were bandanas and leis            


Sweaters were a popular option
 
  
  

And some chose not to mess with clothes at all, going instead for the fancy hair-do!



There were fuzzy dogs



Tiny dogs




And dogs traveling in style
 
  

And lots of dogs with great faces


  
  



But by the end of the day, all dogs had one thing in common. They were tired dogs!
