Grand Opening Fun!!!!

We had a lot of fun meeting so many new friends and having so many old friends and family coming by to wish us well with our latest adventure!  Thanks, so much to everyone who got involved!!!!

We cleared away some of our dog food displays to make room for snacks and drinks!

Everyone had fun popping our balloons!

We wrote the prize on a small bit of paper and put it inside the balloons.

Once a balloon was popped the prize was revealed!

We popped lots of balloons!

That was a loud pop - eh Jacob!!!!

There were several ARF volunteers on hand to help find homes for dogs!

This is Bellini!!!  And she needs a home!

She's very affectionate!

Our groomer - Sam - had fun with some of our visitors, too!!!!

We had a friendly lion come for a visit!

There were several spontaneous fashion shows!

Thanks for visiting, Pete!  You're the friendliest guy I know!!

Our son, Devon, selected the winners of our door prizes!!

When organizing an event like this, it is important to realize that many people got involved to help us make this day a wonderful success!
We'd like to take a moment to thank all those involved....
