The day started out cloudy and dark but it quickly turned into a day for the pups. As the event started at 12 noon, people we're bringing their pups dressed in the finest. Music was playing, there were dog games going on and businesses and rescue groups were enjoying the crowd.One of the first
rescue groups that we had the pleasure of meeting was the Friends of Greyhounds www.friendsofgreyhounds.org). A wonderful rescue group that focuses on saving greyhounds after they retire from racing. They are loving and sweet dogs that are looking for a good home. They have kennels in Sunrise and Hialeah. Another rescue group that I met that had the cutest puppy I've ever seen was called Adopt-A-Bull Rescue, Inc. (www.adoptabullrescue.com) where
they have all different ages of bull dogs. At the event they had two adult bull-dogs and one white puppy bull-dog that was cute as can be. Many people stopped by to give a kiss to the cute and cuddly bull dogs.
If you're looking for a place to keep your pup for the day, week or month, Chateau Poochie has all the amenities you need. As their slogan says, "It's a Dog's World" and, they mean it. Not only is it a hotel for dogs, but for cats as well. If your pooch demands only the best, than the Royal Suite is what your pup needs.

Sue Appleton Dayton is a magnificent painter that can take a photo of your pet (or in real life) and paint them onto any background

She and her team flew in from Virgina to this event to connect with
her South Florida audience. She gave a couple readings on stage and even brought one woman to tears. Diane has a very special talent for talking with animals, and can even do a reading over the phone. And she doesn't just talk to dogs or cats, but to all animals.
